On Summer Vacation

Hello everyone!!

We are currently on summer vacation, welcoming our newest addition to the Little Pink Pansy family (born in early July). We'll be back up and running very soon so check back frequently. It will probably be the first or second week of September and we'll be busy shipping orders out as fast as we can. We look forward to having you return to check out our new website, which will be debuting as soon as we can!

Hope your summer vacation is as wonderful as ours.

Cheers!

Home Show TOMORROW, May 29th

TOMORROW, May 29th from 7:00 - 9:00pm, we will be hosting a home show to clear out some of our old products and introduce some of the new! There will be lots of specials and deals and those attending will be the first to see some of the new stuff, which is not yet on the website. Speaking of the website, it is still being created but should be up and rolling in the next month or so. I'm getting really excited about it.

So if you're in the metro DC area and would be interested in attending (and invite your friends!), please email us at customer_service@littlepinkpansy.com for directions and more specific information.

If you're not able to join us, please feel free to shop online - http://www.littlepinkpansy.com

Celebrate Mama event in Bethesda, MD

Tomorrow is the Celebrate Mama event in Bethesda, MD. This is a great event for "mamas of all ages and stages"! Vendors have something for everyone and there are children's performances like Rocknocerous, a ballet performance, storytelling, belly dancing, and more!

Last year, Little Pink Pansy was a vendor and had a great turnout. Unfortunately we weren't able to do it this year but we will probably be attending. It's a lot of fun and a great chance to support some other local businesses.

If you live outside of the metro DC area, check the Celebrate Mama website for a location near you.

Review on Pixie Bows

As you know, Pixie Bows is one of our vendors. They have just revamped their line and their website and are getting all sorts of great press. Little Pink Pansy has already placed a large order with them and am waiting on the images so we can add them to our site. They just received a great review at Peanut Butter and Pickle so thought we'd share with you! If you see something you like at the Pixie Bows site, please let us know and we will get it for you! These adorable hair clips will soon be seen on all the celebs as they are acquiring them already. Yay for Holly and Sharon at Pixie Bows!

Check out the new Pixie Bows site!

My dear friends and colleagues (Holly & Sharon) have been working on their Pixie Bows business for quite some time. They finally have their new website up with their fresh new designs. I'm really excited about their new line, with lots of new funky clips besides just pretty bows. I will soon be carrying them on Little Pink Pansy too so go visit them at Pixie Bows and post here which styles/colorways are your favorites so I can be sure to include them on the Little Pink Pansy site too!

They also have a blog that will keep you updated on their business and feature some great hair accessories. You can also follow them on Twitter.

Post a comment and let us know what you think!

Congrats to these two mompreneurs for getting their new site up!

Searching for a new web designer

I am in the process of searching for a new web designer for our main site - www.littlepinkpansy.com. I would love to update it and make it more user-friendly and a little more eye-catching. I would also like to improve the ordering for stationery and invitations so I can expand this line. I know several good designers but since the focus of my business is to support women-run companies, especially mom-run ones, I am looking for a woman with a woman's eye to do it. I am looking for new ideas and possibly a new host to help make things simple to upload and change. If you know of any great mom or woman designers or have any pertinent information, please leave a comment with a link!! And if this describes you, please advertise yourself!!!

CHILDREN'S BOUTIQUE CLEARANCE

Come visit our children's boutique today for clearance deals!

A new law effective February 10th will change the way we do business and unfortunately, many of our existing wonderful products will be discontinued. What this means is that we're slashing prices on current inventory to get rid of it before then. Stop by and save up to 60% or more on our wonderful children's boutique items. Hurry, they won't last long!!!
