Lemons to Lemonade

Welcome back!

I have some big changes in the works for my lavender pillow business, so I am closing Pillows of Lavender this week.

I have been working on a new website , www.lavenderdelight.com where I will be selling all things lavender. In addition to the Comfort Pillows, I will have lavender bath and body items, candles, laundry soap and much more.

The new site is scheduled to open September 1st 2010 and I will be having a grand opening event with some special sales, giveaways and freebies.  I will be sending a reminder prior to the date, if you want to be notified you should get on my mailing list (on the left sidebar at Pillows of lavender) .

What will become of Pillows of Lavender?

I have decided to convert it into a bulk pricing website where retailers, massage therapists, chiropractors and other resellers
can purchase my pillows and wraps at discounted wholesale prices.

All  the current pillow inventory is being listed on my etsy site at 50% off the regular prices!

I know you are probably not thinking of cozying up with a warm pillow with our high summer temps going lately, but in a few months
you will be.  So go ahead and take a peek at what you can get at a great low price now.

Before I share the Pillows of Lavender giveaway info I just have to tell you that I am having my very first cup of Chai tea and I am loving it.  I usually drink  green or peppermint tea in the evening after dinner but I was a bit chilled this afternoon and I was anxious to try it.   I almost want to simmer a few bags on the stove just to fill my home with the exotic aroma.

So what is warm and cozy,  on sale and the giveaway this month?

My Lavender  Wraps can be used to aid in the relief of many ailments such as tension, headaches, back and neck pain or simply for warmth and comfort.  I think I use mine to get warm and cozy more than anything!  I’ll have one on my lap or on my feet most of the winter.

Please visit the giveaway post to see how you can enter to win one

September is here and it’s the official Grand Opening of
Pillows of Lavender and I have giveaways and special offers planned for the whole month.

A technological tragedy almost put a damper on the start of this special occasion when my computer decided to call it quits Sunday night.  Yes, the night before the Grand Opening I said.   Everything was in place ready to go, but I still needed to send out all the notices.  I was too tired, I decided I would send them all on Monday morning.

WRONG choice, lesson learned.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.  Tomorrow never came for my computer.  The little black box that held all my precious files and PASSWORDS was gone and I was in mourning.
I did not panic though.  I knew it would all work out somehow, because Pillows of Lavender was meant to be and the show would go on.

Many hours later a solution came.  My 13 yr old son cleaned up his old pc (which I thought was garbage and just called it an eyesore the other day when the little ones were playing games on the old dinosaur) and got me back online in no time.

Guess what?  It runs pretty good and fast.  Maybe because it has about 600,000 less files on it than mine ….

So anyway my pc has to get to the repair shop so I can get my long lost files back , but in the meantime things are great, the excitement is on and  Pillows of Lavender is ready for YOU!

Hope to see you on The Lavender List !
