Brummet's Conscious Blog

Whew! What a busy season... As you may have noticed in the last post, we were given the amazing opportunity to place our existing stock in Puffin Design Studios I'm going to share some of those product pics here today, and a few  recently refurbished drums from our personal pile of musical noise makers too! - Amazing art work was done by my talented husband Dave. The products we have for sale will remain in the local art studio for another 3 weeks or so before they change out stock. This has been a fun experience, which we are grateful for, and hope those of you locally have a chance to drop in to the studios soon. But... before I get into those pics - I do want to share some great news... Our website is live! !!!!! yay!!!!  Visit us at  http://BrummetMedia.ca Yup, I am excited.

Hello Everyone! Holiday season upon us and we are sooooooooo excited! lol We are just about to re-launch our business under the new name: Brummet Media Group. Just as we are coming to the launch, we are hearing from old and new drum students who must have caught the excitement vibe (ha ha) and what great timing! The new website will be launched in a few days, and as you can see we are about to get this blog going again. Get ready for networking ! woo hoo! By the way - we are really super excited to announce a new opportunity locally. We have now arranged to work with a local design studio who will be stocking our products as they come available. We may be holding some of our larger sized group workshops there too. I hope you have time to drop by this store - they are super supportive of local talent and seem to be really great people. Here's the post I put up on local FaceBook groups: Check out our new products now offered at https://www.facebook.com/puffindesign.ca/ ...
