Spring Feature & New Sale
I was so fortunate to be featured in current Spring 2008 issue of Somerset Life. I know that many of you read this wonderful publication which is always chock full of incredible ways to embellish your life.
The article talks about how and why I started this blog and the amazing friends I've met along my path. I receive lots of emails asking advice on how to begin blogging and I usually respond by telling them to just jump in! It's the best way to learn and grow. Plus you will have lots of support from this community while you are on your own journey. I am truly blessed by all the wonderful readers who stop by to say hello, leave a kind word and share in my little spot of cyberspace. As they say, it wouldn't be the same without you my friends!
My website has had a little spruce up. Just a simple, fresh new look. You can click here if you'd like to take a peek. The Heart Fleur de Lis Charms are back in stock. Thanks to those of you who have waited patiently for them. There is also a new Sale going on at The Present Past Collection. Some of the t-shirts designs are being retired to make way for new ones coming soon!
The Flourish Bird T-Shirt and the Crown Logo T-Shirt have all been marked down to $15.00 each. If you've been thinking of getting one, now is the time. It's a savings of nine bucks and with gas prices these days we could all use a little deal now and then. Happy shopping, gas free.



















Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!

Hi Heather, Love the new look of your website it's beautiful! I have to admit I love blogging and meeting new lady's along the way, and also finding my way around my blog and trying the tricks you can do, but I must say I still haven't worked out how to put a link in with out the url link showing, you know where your writting is in pink to click on, to go somewhere else?
Also I'd love to read the article in Somerset Life Mag but can't get it here in Australia! Love your T-shirts they are so beautiful!
Hugs
Kirstie.

Congratulations Heather, Well Deserved. Great advice for people who are wanting to get into blogging. Just Jump in! Jamie

Hi Heather,
You are so right about starting a blog, just jump in. That's what I did. For the first few posts, I had maybe 2 or 3 comments and then the more you blog, the more comments you get and before you know it you sometimes don't have enough time in the day to comment back to everyone. I love it. I have made so many wonderful friends so I couldn't agree more.
Hugs,
LeAnn :)
