We Can All Make It


Book Description

A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER! 'Determined, focused and full of heart - this book encapsulates all that has made Sara Davies the powerhouse she is.' Giovanna Fletcher From student halls to Dragons Den (and now Strictly Come Dancing!), this is Sara Davies MBE's story of building her multi-million-pound business from scratch and why we can all make it big. ------------------------ Sara Davies is the queen of crafts. Whilst working as an intern in a small company, Sara noticed a gap in the industry and decided to pursue it. By the time she left university, she was running a business with a half million-pound turnover from her student bedroom. When she became the youngest of BBC 1's iconic Dragons, that turnover was £25 million. Today, she is one of Britain's biggest business names. In her first book - as full of warmth, wit and wisdom as she is - Sara shares what it took to get there: from manning factories overnight with her mam and dad to hitting the trade shows of Las Vegas alone, armed with little more than ambition and passion. We Can All Make It chronicles everything from what she looks for in a business investment to how she manages to find time to enjoy family life while running an empire. From the buzz of witnessing your latest product sell out, dancing the cha cha as you broadcast live to 96 million American homes, thriving after lockdown to being at the head of the biggest tables, Sara's unique storytelling answers all the questions for women in business today. Praise for Sara Davies 'A business whizz' - Radio Times 'A brilliant read.' Steph McGovern 'Page-turning, inspiring' - Gethin Jones 'She is amazing!' - Alison Hammond 'Energy, focus, commitment: she's relentless!' - Peter Jones

The next chapter focuses on wrapping presents, and here there are giftwrap projects using boxes and bows, paper and fabric, buttons and ricrac. The third chapter on cards also features labels and gift tags, and the projects range from fun snowmen greetings cards to stencilled cards which you can easily make in large numbers. The dining table takes centre stage on Christmas Day itself, and the chapter on table settings suggests different themes and colour schemes, from sophisticated silver to red-and-white country style, to traditional red, green and gold. There's nothing nicer than receiving a homemade present, so the section on foodie gifts includes chocolates, festive cupcakes, chocolate brownies and biscuits to hang from the Christmas tree. And finally, as Christmas is the time for children of all ages, there is a chapter on makes for kids, including brightly coloured paper chains, paper snowflakes and pompom decorations.
