Shop update!

I've added a few extra items to the shop - it only took me for-freaking-ever to figure out.

Look for:

Sock Monkeys (extremely limited quantities, so act fast!)

Tiara - pink with glittery, uh, tiaras (see above)

Pink & Green Damask

Ottoman

Princess

Silver Foil Scrolls

And new to Holiday Wear:

Sweethearts

Sweet Hearts with Polka Dot Reverse


Also, and this is the exciting bit, I've reduced the prices on a few items after worrying my little head with number crunching.

For those who have contacted me regarding wholesale - I'm slaving away on it! I have about 6 patterns to offer along with the solid colours! Packaging is on it's way and providing my monster paper orders show up soon, I should be ready to go in a few weeks. So exciting!

Happy New Year!

What I won't do for my customers! I trudged up to the post office today to post the last of this year's orders - well, I say trudged, but slid is more like it. The rain/snow of the last few days has frozen over, leaving the remaining mounds of snow crusted over and the sidewalks sheets of ice. I would have been better off with skates.....


In the new year I will have my wholesale division (which is still just me!) running & will be adding dark brown cupcake baking cups & some cupcake picks to the shop! I just need to find an extra few hours in the day and it should all come together nicely.

Hope you all have a wonderful new year's eve!

Canadian

I realized today (after a phone call regarding shipping times) that most people are going to assume I'm based in the U.S.

I'm pretty close (Vancouver), but those few extra kilometres over the border can add a lot of time to shipping - especially when customs is involved. And of course, during the holidays shipping times slow way way down.

I've tried to keep shipping costs down by mailing via letter post whenever possible. Unfortunately, this method doesn't provide tracking numbers. It's a pretty quick method though, usually 4-6 business days - even internationally.

I guess I'm going to have to add a whole page to my shop for shipping info - in the mean time, I sincerely hope everyone who has ordered them gets their wraps in time for their event!

Cake life goal #2!

Realized! Got a mention on Cupcakes Take the Cake, which I've been following for a few delightful years now.

Now if I could only manage a Martha mention....

Christmas picks :(

I'm sad to say that after all I won't be able to get the Christmas picks up in the shop in time for the holidays.

Sickness in the form of strep throat has us all down and out right now and the boy has some other icky health stuff happening, leaving me with no extra time right now.

I'll make it up after the holidays with some Hello Kitty & Tinkerbell picks! I swear!

Christmas picks - delay

I'm sorry to all those who have expressed interest in my Christmas cupcake picks - I meant to have them in the shop yesterday, but unfortunately I've been hit with a nasty nasty bug that I fear is strep throat (it's going around my kids' school).

I will do my utmost to have them in the shop by Thursday!


On the upside I just got an email from someone who's father was a wealthy cocoa merchant in West Africa before he was poisoned and he needs my help to get his millions out of a security box in a bank in Spain and I can have whatever percentage of the moolah I want as compensation..... wait, you don't think it's a scam do you? Really people, where's your Christmas spirit?
