🌟 Exciting News! 🌟

Join us this Sunday at Homegrown Markets ( ) Speers Point for a day filled with market magic! 🎉 We can’t wait to see you all there! Most likely in our usual # 73 spot!

For the month of July, we are proud to announce that we will be donating $409 to Bears of Hope ( ) from our product sales, along with an additional $145 collected by Homegrown Markets last weekend. We are beyond grateful for the overwhelming support from our community—words truly cannot express how much it means to us!

For those who may not be familiar, Bears of Hope provides invaluable support to families who have experienced the loss of a baby during pregnancy or shortly after birth. They offer comfort through their Bear of Hope, which is given to families by hospitals when they cannot take their baby home.

We’re thrilled to share that our donations have now surpassed $10,000 to all three organisations over the past six years! It’s hard to believe that it was around this time six years ago that we registered Coco’s Fizz as a small business in honour and as a legacy to Coco (and now Sawyer as well).

Thank you for being part of our journey and for your unwavering support. We hope to see you this Sunday at Homegrown Markets Speers Point! 💖

at this SUNDAY.

✨We’ll be there along with another 100 odd stalls for you to browse and shop and make our day!

🥟Delightful food, fabulous wares…and maybe even a cheeky wine or two at the cellar door.

📍790 McDonalds Road, Pokolbin, entry via the main Bimbadgen gate.

🤍MARKET WEEKEND🤍

This weekend we will be at two fab locations.

SATURDAY - 16 Gipps Street, Carrington for their 1st birthday celebrations.

SUNDAY - at Speers Point Park for market magic.

All products are restocked and we’re looking forward to seeing you all!

Also, just a reminder: I had a lovely customer reach out after purchasing and using one of our DIY Clay Face Mask Kits over the weekend. Once they applied to their skin they started to feel burning, so wiped off. Their faces were red and warm for quite sometime. Just remember, our Clay Mask Kits may tingle, but should never burn. So this customer did the right thing in taking it off straight away. So a lesson I have learnt here is to remind my customers that all skincare is different and that you should always test patch first. I’ll be making sure I remind people of this from now on. I just want to be open and transparent with you all.🤍

✨Market Magic✨

This weekend you’ll find us at two wonderful locations, in the beautiful Hunter Valley for and at the beachy location of Redhead for .

SATURDAY - Handmade in the Hunter at Sobels Wines Pokolbin 9am-2pm.

SUNDAY - Made & Found at Webb Park Redhead 10am-2pm.

We’ll have all of our delightful products with us, so stock up on your Bath Dust, and grab some luxurious Body Butter to keep those hands (and your entire body) nice and soft and moisturised. We’ll also have our new Natural Deodorant, and maybe even a sneaky new lip balm.

Your support means the world to me, to us, so we would appreciate she id you could share this post, and share to your story, maybe some of your friends might like our stuff. Support doesn’t always mean purchasing from us, it’s the sharing and the conversations that have a huge impact. Thank you everyone. ♥️♥️

🙏 A Heartfelt Thank You 🙏

To all our amazing customers,

We wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for your incredible support this week. Whether you’ve made a purchase online or visited our market stall, we truly appreciate each and every one of you.

It has been an absolute pleasure meeting new people and engaging with our beloved repeat customers. Your continued trust and loyalty mean the world to us.

We also want to extend a special thank you to the bereaved families we’ve had the privilege to speak with. We hope that in some small way, our products and conversations have provided comfort and reminded you that you’re not alone.

Thank you to my amazing husband for holding down the fort at Speers Point today so I could go watch Piper play soccer!

For the month of July, we are proud to announce that our donations will be going to Bears of Hope. Together, we have already raised an incredible $65.45 since the start of the financial year.

Lastly, we have some wonderful news to share with all of you. After a 6-year journey in trying to bring a living sibling into the world for Piper, we have been blessed with an extraordinary opportunity. A generous woman, along with her family, has offered to house our embryo/baby in her uterus (be our gestational surrogate). Our transfer date is set for this month, and we couldn’t be more excited and grateful.

Thank you, once again, for being a part of our journey and for your unwavering support. We are truly humbled by your kindness.

6 babies are stillborn each day in Australia, that’s higher than the National Road Toll.

As an Obstetrician and Sonologist, Dr Anneliese Perkins has sadly witnessed the devastating impact of stillbirth on families firsthand.

Tragically, 6 babies are born without breath every day in Australia 💔

This is higher than the national road toll.

📦 MELANIE’S ORDER! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Melanie’s order is officially on its way! 💌✨ After browsing through our feed and falling in love with a few pieces, Melanie reached out to us to inquire about their availability. She even shared screenshots of the earrings she had her eye on! 😍

But that’s not all! Melanie also decided to treat herself to one of our luxurious large French Pear Lurxury Soaks. 🛁🍐 We couldn’t be happier to fulfill her order and bring a touch of indulgence to her self-care routine.

Thank you, Melanie, for choosing us to be a part of your delightful order! 🌸 We hope our handcrafted earrings and the heavenly scent of the French Pear Luxury Soak bring you joy and relaxation. ✨

🫶🏻Yesterday was what would have been Coco’s 6th Birthday. She’s the reason Coco’s Fizz began, and continues to be today!🫶🏻

If you’re new here, following along, first of all thank you for being here, secondly, our second child, our daughter Coco was stillborn at 36 weeks back on the 29th May 2018 after an easy pregnancy. I went in for a check up after reduced movements but never thought I would be told “I’m sorry there’s no heartbeat.” Never in a million years at that late stage of pregnancy did I think those would be the words I would hear.

A month after Coco’s intrauterine death while we were deep in grief we decided to make a Body Scrub and bath bomb to give as a gift to our obstetrician and midwives to say thank you for looking after us. We made up a mock label called Coco’s Fizz, Coco after our daughter and Fizz because bath bombs fizz. And then a little bit after that my husband, Coco’s Daddy, suggested I start a business to keep me busy during what would have been my parental leave and also as a way to give back to the three organisations that had already supported us so much. are three special organisations that support grieving families and try to stop stillbirth from being so prevalent in our society. 6 babies a day are stillborn. 6 babies a day! 6 babies a day die, and without a cause a lot of the time. It’s sad, and it’s hard, and it’s losing a child before you’ve even had a chance to know them bloody sucks. But on the other hand you’ve also spent close to 9 months imagining your life with this little person.

Yesterday was Coco’s birthday. Her 6th. She should have been starting primary school this year and getting her first sibling photo with her big sister at school yesterday. Man it sucks. She should be hear running a muck and keeping us on our toes and making friends with all these beautiful 5, 6, 7 year olds we know! She is so loved, not only by our family, but by so many others, and by you. You supporting our business and supporting Coco’s legacy means the world to us. Every one of our handmade products and earrings have all of my love poured it them. She’s proud, I know she is. 🤍

📣 Heartwarming News! 🎉

We have some heartwarming news to share with you all! 😍 The recent fundraising campaign organised by Coco’s Fizz and Usandthem Tourers has raised an incredible $3000 for Heartfelt , a wonderful organisation that captures priceless moments for families who might not have more memories to make with their babies.

But that’s not all! 📸 Thanks to this amazing effort, two brand new cameras have been donated to hospitals in Victoria, Australia. 🏥💖

These cameras will be an invaluable resource for hospitals, allowing them to capture precious memories for families who may not have access to a professional Heartfelt photographer. It’s truly a gift that will bring smiles and comfort to countless families during their most vulnerable moments. 😊❤️

What makes this donation even more special is that each camera is dedicated in loving memory of our beautiful children who are always in our hearts. 🌟✨

The camera in memory of our Coco Jessie Channells will find its new home at Frances Perry Hospital in Melbourne. 📷🌆
The camera dedicated to the memory of our Sawyer Greg Noel Channells will be making its way to Grampians Health, Horsham Campus, in Regional Victoria. 📷🌳

This. So many families struggle with infertility or pregnancy loss, so these types of April Fools pranks really kick us in the guts. Please be kind and think twice. 🥰

APRIL FOOLS DAY
Just a gentle reminder that whilst today is a day for jokes/pranks and it can a lot of fun, making a joke about being pregnant or posting a fake announcement is not funny.
Please be kind, considerate and think before you post.

🩷Heartfelt Thanks🩷

Thank you to all of our regular, old, and new customers for your incredible support! This weekend, we attended four markets and we are blown away by the love and encouragement we received. While we are still calculating the total donation from the takings, we wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude to each and every one of you.

Coco’s Fizz was created with the intention to raise awareness, advocate, and break the stigma surrounding pregnancy loss. And we feel that we are achieving just that. At these four markets alone, I had the privilege of connecting with six families who shared part of their heartbreaking journeys with me. It was a powerful reminder that we are not alone in this experience.

We proudly display photos of our beautiful babies who have passed away, not only to honour their memory but also to provide comfort and support to other families who may be going through similar challenges. If you ever need someone to talk to, cry with, or simply listen and say your baby’s name proudly, please know that I am here for you. We are here to support you, so please don’t hesitate to reach out.

In this post, you’ll find a photo taken by a friend who walked past our stall today. It captures a beautiful family sharing their daughter Jasmine with us. We are incredibly grateful for their bravery in sharing her photos, and we thank them for this meaningful encounter. This was just one of the many heartwarming moments we experienced this weekend. Pregnancy loss is a club no one wants to join, but the support and love we receive from the community make us feel immensely grateful.

If you have experienced the loss of a baby or know someone who has, we invite you to share a brief comment about them. It could be their name and gestation, or anything else you’d like to share. We would be honored to say their name with you and talk about your baby or a baby you know.

Please feel free to join the conversation and let us remember and honour the precious lives that touched ours. 💙💖

📸 Fundraising for Heartfelt - Capturing Precious Memories 📸

Join us for an exciting and meaningful event as Coco's Fizz and Us And Them Tourers Hunter Valley SMC come together to organise a special Poker Run ride in support of Heartfelt. Heartfelt is a volunteer organisation of professional photographers dedicated to providing the gift of photographic memories to families who have experienced stillbirth or have children with serious or life-threatening illnesses. Their compassionate and invaluable services are offered free of charge to these families in need.

The Major Sponsor for the event is DK Heavy Plant Services.

Our journey with Us & Them Tourers began we we met Denise and Jim around 8 months ago at a market in the Hunter Valley. Denise and Jim wandered the markets, saw our stall, read our story, and knew they wanted to help. They offered to team up with us to raise some much needed funds for Heartfelt to continue doing what they do for families like ours.

Every yesr Us & Them Tourers have a Poker Run where they choose a charity to support. This year they have partnered with us at Coco's Fizz and chose Heartfelt to support. The Poker Run is a day where motorcycle enthusiasts and supporters can come together for a day of fun and fundraising. The event will feature an exhilarating motorcycle ride, a poker tournament, and various activities for participants to enjoy. All funds raised from this event will go directly to Heartfelt, enabling them to continue their incredible work and provide families with lasting memories. I will have a small stall set up at the first stop at Pearly Energy Service Station in Nulkaba.

We invite you to join us in making a difference. Your participation and contributions will help Heartfelt bring comfort and solace to families during their most challenging times. Together, we can ensure that the gift of photography and cherished memories reach those who need it most.

Event Details:
📍 Date: Saturday 6th April 2024
📍 Location: Hunter Valley. Starting at Pearl Energy Service Station Nulkaba at 8:30am, and riding at 9:30am.
📍 Fundraising Goal: $2000.

Whether you ride a motorcycle or simply want to support this noble cause, your presence and contribution will make a significant impact. Let's come together as a community and support Heartfelt in their mission to provide healing through the power of photography.

To register for the Poker Run contact Denise from Us & Them Tourer or to make a donation, please visit our fundraising page.
