The Secret Is Out

Hello!
I'm taking some time to update my blog and let everyone in on the secret I've been withholding. First of all, I have updated my website with all of the upcoming craft fairs I have booked so far. I am so excited to be a part of St. Simon's Craft Fair this year!!! It is a huge event, and I got a space there - HOORAY! On my last post I said that I wasn't going to do as many shows this season, but it turns out that I am actually doing the same amount this year afterall. My first show is next weekend, Oct.3rd at Mary Esther's United Methodist Church.

Now for the secret - Most of you know that my business has only been successful because of my cousin, Kim, and the "family secret". Well I'm happy to advertise for her ebay store and throw some flowers and business her way. She sells tarts, candle warmers, and other items that I do not have time to carry and promote. Please stop by and visit her ebay store at :

Wow - It's been awhile!

Hello Everyone!
I didn't realize that it has been so long since my last post. I really need to get back to blogging. It has been a really slow summer as far as my business goes, but a very busy one for me personally. I don't think I sat down for very long at all. I was able to enjoy the beach more than I ever have and spend lots of time with special friends.
I am back at work now at the school and have already reserved booth space for 4 craft shows this Fall. I did 8 last year, but I'm not so sure I will do all of the ones I attended last year.
My sales at Yesterday's Treasures have been steady all summer. I am running a special there now through Christmas. It's the best sale price I have ever offered. You can buy 3- 10 oz candles for $30, regularly priced at $12 each in the store. You can buy 3 - 6 oz candles for $15, and they sell for $6 each. You can always purchase these from me also at these prices. Just check out my website and drop me an email with what scents (flavors) you would like and what size.
I need to run for now, but I will post updates more often! I will let you know where to find me each weekend at the upcoming shows! I hope to see you there or hear from you!
