When booking, please aim to land in Bali in the early afternoon on your first day and exit Bali in the early evening / late night on the last day.

What You Need to Bring
Extra Luggage
Since shopping is guaranteed, you need lots of space in the luggage! 😜
For the same reason, I also suggest you to get extra baggage for your flight back home, as airlines can be strict with their luggage regulation.
However, if it still exceeds, we can help arrange shipping at your own cost.
Patterns and Samples
Bring your favourite patterns for quilting/any textile projects so you can preplan your fabric shopping.
Since we also offer tailoring services, you can also bring your favourite dress/tops/bottoms as samples for our tailors.
Cash and Cards
- You will need spending money for lunch, dinners, drinks, souvenirs, optional tours and shopping days etc.
- Though not all, most places accept cards in Bali (like in my shop and cafe). I suggest bringing a little bit of cash (AUD$1000) and converting in Bali International Airport or on arrrival into Candidasa, or you can lend some from me to be paid back later. Plenty of money changers in Candidasa.
- Avoid converting it in the Australian airport – as exchange rate is low.
Suggested Attires
¾ pants and T-shirts or knee-length dresses are suitable.
Bathers for swimming
Flip-flops and good walking shoes.
Last but not least, your sunscreen.
Sense of Humour
Sense of humour and easygoing approach to the Balinese people as they are one of the friendliest people on earth and really like to talk to guests.

Wacky Jacky's Textiles is a fully Indonesian company
We are now located in Bali – the final charges during checkout will be in IDR (Indonesian Rupiah), which may look like a lot of numbers (in thousands, 000).
Don’t worry, though, the prices have been adjusted correctly to our AUD benchmark
