Updates

Good Morning!  It's been a very busy few weeks around here--it's so wonderful to hear from some many couples!    FYI, I'm about maxed out on what I can get out the door this week.  For any other incoming orders, please just assume they will ship next week.   I also have several new designs that I will be getting posted soon. I'm trying to stay focused on work, but this week(end) is a big one.  I am the director for our Church School--and Saturday we are having a Vacation Church School running all day.  Then Sunday is our Church School...

I know that some other Orthodox-based businesses take Bright Week off...but I will be here working.   While feasting. :)

I've been so Thankful? Grateful?  Relieved? Inspired?  Blessed?  by your orders this Spring season. Not sure how to best express my feelings....This past year made it hard to plan for the future of this business.  But I don't feel like I have that same stress now.  Of course, just...

Interestingly, the St. Herman crowns have been very popular these last few weeks.  However, I have had to switch out the design on the St. Herman crowns due to material availability.    The effects of COVID and its numerous shut-downs over this past year have made it increasingly difficult to get some of the specialty materials back in stock.  Frankly, I feel like the need to brainstorm alternative patterns creates better products.   I really like the new version of the St. Herman crowns, and the St. Anastasia crowns that have come out of this needed adaptation.  Thanks for understanding that I can't always...
