Busy Week!

Busy week at Curtsyland! As the holiday season approached and we get busier in the store, you'll have to forgive the absence of new blogs. We are pretty religious about posting new things on Facebook every day, so if you're not a fan, become one now. Go on, I'll wait................

Ok, now that that is taken care of, onto the week in review. We've been running Bella Barudan non-stop, trying to finish up examples of all of our fabulous custom monograms. Everyone who has seen the personalized Emilie Sloan bags has ordered a couple for holiday gifts. They really do come out quite spectacular!


Wednesday night we hosted a private shopping event for the girl friends & wives of the Seattle Grizzlie players. Danielle made tissue pom pom wrist corsages for everyone which were totally adorable. We get asked frequently about hosting private events here at Curtsyland and we're happy to try to accommodate any group who is interested, just give us a call.



Halloween is a week from Saturday and one of our favorite holidays. Curtsyland is decked out in all her spooky finery with loads of glitter skulls and crows and candles. Make sure you stock up on all the goods to decorate for the big party we know you're throwing next week.

Look who showed up in the store this week! Carol & Max from Where the Wild Things Are! One of my favorite books ever! How can you not love something that has the sentence "let the wild rumpus start" in it?

Gremlins

Today has been officially named the Technology Gremlin Triumph Day! Seems like every piece of machinery or computer program that I have used today has given me fits! It actually took me about 20 tries to log into our blogger program this evening! And of course it's only fitting that the store has been crazy busy today. Sorry our blogging has been a bit off, but with the holidays fast approaching and the new embroidery machine up and running, there just don't seem to be enough hours in the day. We do usually manage to past something on Facebook every day, so if you need a daily Curtsy fix, that is the place to go.


Danielle has been busy making 2 Custom Diaper Cakes for a customer. She can make 3 & 4 tier cakes, customized to a particular color scheme or theme. You can add merchandise from the store to make it a bit fancier.




Reminder

Tomorrow is our one day Josie Girl Designs Trunk Show. Fabulous, sparkly

It is also Shop For A Cause Saturday and Curtsy Bella will be donating 10% of our total sales for the day to the Spina Bifida Association of Washington.

Spider Bite

It just amazes me what some people will do. We had a shoplifter in the store today and she got away with the Tarina Tarantino Spider Ring. Now, the Curtsy Girls are big believers in Karma and know that the universe will eventually punish her (maybe a black widow bite?), but it hurts nonetheless. We do have her on tape for viewing pleasure of the Seattle Police, so maybe they can help Karma along a bit.

This time of year, it's fun to decorate every room in the house. With the threat of Swine Flu on everybody's mind, it's important to get the little tykes to wash their hands. No problem when the Skull Soaps show up in the bathroom.



Speaking of decorating - these Velvet Skull Crystal Accent Pillows will be the focal point of any room. Not just for Halloween, show your rebel side to all who enter your abode.




Bartie Bat hanging from the ceiling is a fun way to bring the spirit of Halloween into a child's room. I know, I know, bats have gotten a bad rap, but this little guys is pretty soft & lovable.
