Summer Sale is Wrapping Up

Well it just a little over an hour, the summer sale will be over. This has been a great week. Thanks to everyone who ordered. I managed to work really quickly and get tons of orders packed each day so that I don't have a massive order back up! I keep surprising myself how quick I've gotten at picking and packing orders.

So once the sale is over, I'll be shutting the website down at some point over the weekend (or next week if I get busy) to take a quick inventory and adjust any product count numbers if necessary. I hate taking inventory...but it is a necessary evil. There are a few items showing out of stock that I do have an item of two left and there are others that are showing in stock that I'm completely out of.

Once I do get every single last sale order out the door, I'm going to take a week break from packing orders and work on restocking product. I also have to work on the new fall line. I'll be putting an announcement up here and on my website when I do pause shipping orders. The website will be open to take your orders but the turnaround time will be about a week instead of just a few days.

There is also a few special items that I have in mind that I want to make for sale on Etsy. Watch for news on the Etsy exclusive products coming soon! There are a few scents that I've been wanting to make into perfume but do not want to carry a full inventory of on my website. Etsy will be the perfect place for these!

Will you be sending out emails when the Etsy exclusives come out? Or will it be an announcement here? Not that I can check either at work (bah!) but still curious.

Hi HJ, I definately post here when I make anything new that will go up on Etsy. If I find that I have enough time to keep my Etsy store well stocked, I may set up a newsletter just for Etsy.

Spa Blocks! I miss them dearly. They are amazing on dry winter skin. I hope they get restocked soon. :)

Ordered on the 8th, received on the 15th. Holy cow!

Also, the scents are awesome, as always. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

Yes, actually I've been meaning to post a blog entry about the Spa Blocks. They should be back instock in about a month. I need to have my molds for the Spa Blocks remade, but it is taking longer then I expected. I'm going to remake the Spa soaps using my regular soap molds for now just so I can get them stocked.
