Announcements!

New things are happening around Sniglets!

First: Sniglets now has its own clothing labels! This is something I've been wanting to see happen for a while, and business just got busy enough to justify the expense - so yippee!!! Second: The new labels say "Sniglets Co." instead of "Sniglets Baby Boutique", this decision was made to allow my business to expand into toddler sizes and beyond in the future. However, since I only sell things for baby on Etsy, I will continue to operate under the baby boutique name in my Etsy shop.

Third: Sniglets is now an official business, recognized by the great State of Florida. I am fully registered and therefore must collect sales tax on all sales made inside the sate. That even includes Florida residents who purchase from me on Etsy. It's cool to be so "official", but it sort of stinks too ;P

Fourth: Those of you who follow both of my blogs will notice that this "announcement" is posted on both, why? I am working to "marry" my blogs over the course of the next year, why? Because... a) Sniglets has become very integrated with my family's life b) My business is becoming far less blog dependant c) I'm just plain tired of writing two blogs, etc. My "A Little Bit of This Blog" is very close to my heart, I could just never close that one, so all of the Sniglets news will "move in" with the story of our family. I will continue to post on both for about a year, or until all of my business cards that say "snigletsbaby.blogspot.com" are gone :)

Fifth: I plan on opening up a booth at a local antique and children's boutique, I'm sure some of you know Three Chicks in Avondale, It's a really cute store. I've been a customer there for years, and if all goes as planned, I should have my booth "installed" by August 1st.

Sixth: I hope you will understand that as my official line expands, I will be taking on fewer and fewer custom orders. All items will of course still be able to be customized with baby's name or initials, but the majority of orders will need to be selected from the current seasonal catalog's available line. I will offer as many designs per season as I possibly can, and I HOPE to leave approx. 5 custom order slots available for friends and family each month. One of the few unfortunate things about business growth is that I have to think about large quantities now, and I simply will not be able to accommodate as many custom requests. It is, however, my desire to keep your needs a top priority in my business, my designs are built from inspiration from all of you. I ask that you continue to tell me what means the most to you and your little ones. You may see your design ideas in the next season's line!

Stay posted, Fall 2009 designs coming soon!!!
