The month of May is going to bring about some changes at Cotton Belle Boutique. This little business has grown so much over the past year and I am so thankful. The downside to all these orders is that my family doesn't see nearly as much of me, and I have no free time to play with my kids who are growing up way too fast! I've been praying for a solution to this problem and feel like God is opening some doors lately that will help me change the way I run my business. So here is what is up........
#1. Custom orders will be VERY limited. I will have to see how this goes, but I am thinking no more than 2 or 3 a month. If you need a custom item, you will want to plan ahead to make sure you can get in. My turn around time on these will probably be about 4 weeks, depending on the item.
#2. Starting on May 15th, I will be doing bi-weekly uploads. Each upload will feature one item. I will take orders for that item for 24 hrs and then all orders will close and be completed over the next two weeks. Turn around time will be shorter which I know you are happy to hear! :) This will save a lot of time for me in sewing and shopping for supplies. Uploads will generally be bi-weekly on Thursday nights at 8pm.
And now for a sneak peak---
The first upload will be this darling Nelle Romper! Price will be $40 plus shipping. Sizes will range from 6-12 months, 12-18 months, 2, 3, 4 and 5. This romper is made out of knit so it is super comfy and requires NO IRONING! :) (Excuse the sticker tattoo on her arm and the scribbling on the wall which I did not even notice until I blew up this photo! Do these kids have a mother??!!)
I hope these changes in my business will be great for everyone. I'm looking forward to a shorter turn around time and being able to make some really fun, creative items for you!
My etsy store will stay open. I still have my princess dresses listed since they have been so loved by you all! Everything on my etsy store will still have a 4-6 week turn around time so be mindful of that when placing your order.
Thanks for all the support! You are the best customers!
