The Lorax is Coming!!! The Lorax is Coming!!!!



Well less than a week now until the big movie hits.  I will be there with my son and his best friend.  The Lorax has been his favorite Dr. Suess book since he has been little.  He made me read it to him every day last summer and that's before he knew the movie was coming out.

Now I have that mad dash of last minute shoppers shopping in my shop for their Lorax hair bows.  I have heard of little girls having Lorax Movie Parties.  It seems that the Lorax has taken the kids by storm.  I think it's great.  The story has a great message about the environment and I hope that gets through in this movie which I'm sure it will.  We will find out this weekend.  Then as boys will be boys I will be subjected to a Monster Truck Show shortly afterwards.  LOL

Here are some bows I have left if you are looking for your last minute Lorax hair bows.  The green ones above are also up for sale.






These are all available in my shop while supplies last.  I have always carried Lorax ribbon in my shop because it has held a special place in my heart.  But because of the movie my suppliers are all out until mid March.  That is when I will be back in stock of everything.

It Has Been A Long Time!!!!

I know it has been a long time since I have posted, but I have been in the process of revamping things in the past year including my life.  I am pleased to announce I am up an running again and things will be better than before!!!!!

Things that happened in the past year:

Changed my shop name
Sales dramatically went up
Became President of the PTO
Sam decided to start traveling with his Judo team
My husband and I really worked on our marriage and I am proud to say it is better now than it has ever been
I left some of the teams I was active on on etsy
I have learned some time management skills
Sam started Full Day Kindergarten

Is that enough for ya?  My life has dramatically changed and for the good.  I am always happy and have a smiling face on now.  It was not so a year ago.  Plus I was selling to the wrong market a year ago.  I didn't market myself properly.  Now that I have and I am making the right accessories and doing the right things in my shop my sales are really good.  They always can be better, lol, but they are good.

I am part of a great project I am currently working on and you will hear a lot of coming up in the next few months.   The Alla Prima Art Mall.  It is an online mall.  I will be interviewing and featuring different artists from this mall every week.  I think it is a great project.  And for anyone who wants to check it out go to www.allaprimaartmall.com.  There are some fabulous items in there you might you need.  We will continue adding artists weekly and you will see fresh stuff in there weekly.  Come and check us out.

Well this is my first post in a while and I thank you for being a part of something that will truly be great.  This blog is going to turn into something truly special I can feel it.
