HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Friday, December 31, 2010

I can't believe it, the end of 2010 is here. What a year it has been!!

I am so looking forward to the year to come, I'm full of new design ideas, and can't wait to start off the year on a good foot.

No New Year's eve plans for me. My husband is working, so the little guy and I will be spending the night building forts in our living room, and I'll probably do some sewing when he falls asleep :)

Our sale is on Today and Tomorrow. Remember those coupon codes (BYE2010 and HELLO2011) for your 10 and 11% discounts!!

Looking forward to the New Year!
Blessings to all you you.

Merry Christmas!

Thursday, December 23, 2010

I know, it's only the 23rd, but I come from a Scandinavian background, and we celebrate the 23rd (lille jule aften), the 24th (jule aften), the 25th (jule dag) and the 26th (? we have a huge left-over smorgasbord). Christmas is a big deal in our household, and this year even moreso, as our son just turned two, and understands everything from celebrating Baby Jesus' birthday, to making sure Santa has lots to eat when he comes to visit - this year, as per Jakob's request, Santa will find soup and a salad at our mantle.

I spend all day, every day linked into the online world, it's what allows me to connect with you, my customers, and make sure that we're active and up to date on everything. I try very hard to reply to all my messages as soon as possible after you send them, but for the next couple days I'll be taking a step back from the computer, to spend time with the people I love.

I'll be back in action on the 27th, and knowing my internet addiction, I will probably be checking in once a day, but if you're trying to reach us and you don't hear anything for a couple days, please know that we'll write you back very soon.

We wish you the absolute BEST of the holiday season, and a merry Christmas. It's too soon to wish you a Happy New Year, we'll definitely be updating again before then, but if you're away, enjoy yourself, enjoy your family, your babies and everything this season has to offer.

All our love,
The SusieCues Family <3


New Fabric Choices!

I've added some new fabrics to the Fabric Options section of my site :) Will be adding a bunch more over the days to come.

Are you looking for something specific? Would LOVE to know what "the people" are looking for!!


Stats that make me happy!

We got our 170th sale yesterday :) WOW.


Reflecting on an incredible year :)

Sunday, December 19, 2010

It's 1pm on the Sunday before Christmas, and I'm putting the finishing touches on my last few projects before the holidays. It's funny seeing our house all decorated, while the ironing board is in the middle of the living room, and packages are sitting on the dining table. My son has taken it upon himself to pick up the strings from the floor (yay!) and put them on the tree (?? no tinsle needed over here, people!)

I can't believe how amazing 2010 has been. I had some personal ups and downs, but SusieCues did so much better than I could ever have imagined. I consider myself truly blessed to have stumbled across Etsy, and blogging, and all the wonderful people I`ve met over the past year. All in all, it`s played out to be one of the best years in memory for me.

Running a business, when you have no idea what you`re doing, presents quite the learning curve. I know so, so much more than I did at the beginning of the year, and I`m so looking forward to the new year, to new projects, new plans, and hopefully more customers. If I can beat this year`s 168 sales (almost a sale every two days!!) I will be over the moon.

While the house is still quiet, I`m going to get back to my sewing!!
