Big Changes!!!

There have been some big changes at Whimsical Willows Couture! I have loved Etsy, the ease of use and the great set up but it was time for a change! The fees added up quickly and were a lot!
So I now have a website to make purchases from!
www.WhimsicalWillowsCouture.com
Check it out !!

I am really excited about it and I hope you are all too! And now that I'm making the "switch" (Etsy will have a few items but not everything any longer so I can still find new customers!)
With that said, enjoy 10% off all orders on my website using the code "WWCBLOG" at check out! ;)

That said I will be on vacation all week while I catch up on all those orders you all placed these past two days! We have Labor Day, The first week of school, and my sons 7th birthday (and party) all that week so I will be spending a lot of time with family too!

Thanks everyone!! Enjoy the new code, and website!

Fall is on it's way!

Oh I will so miss the warm summer days, the warm sun, boating and just relaxing at the pool or park with my 3 little loves , fall clothing lines almost (Really just ALMOST) make this doable!

Things have been going great here at Whimsical Willows Couture. Orders are coming in, as are some adorable customer photos ! (Please summit yours to Whimsicalwillow4@aol.com if you want yours added!)

I make a new fall piece, which leads me to make another, and another and well ... you get the idea! Full is full of fun colors and New designs just for you! As most of you know I make clothing for my daughter, Items I just want her to have and wear, and love, and then I share those designs with all of you! As I'm learning new things, and trying new ideas, everything just seems to come alive in my little sewing room! (Or shall I say Basement! sounds like a fun place to sew doesn't it lol??) Really besides the lack of natural lighting it's pretty cool and fun!

Up next in my world is school! All these fun new back to school outfits, and finding that "must have" perfect piece I find myself a little sad that my children have to wear, school uniforms! So Please share these adorable outfits with me so I can live that little vision through some of you! I'm really sad that my Youngest little Aidan will be starting Kindergarten ! I'm going to miss that little guy more then I know already! My oldest is starting 2nd grade and I'm STILL not ready for him to be away from me all day!

But this will leave me and Miss Natalie with a LOT of 1 on 1 time! i have some fun things planned for her Including starting dance classes! (Or hopefully a Mommy and ME class, now won't that be fun! LOL)
It will give me more time with her but I notice how short her time is left at home with me ! Just 2 more years and she will be away at school too!

That's where Whimsical Willows Couture comes in! My initial goal was to, start a business to help support my fabric addiction in making Natalie her own clothing. Fabric was expensive and even making just 1 outfit was pricey! So if I made 1 and sold 1, it cut the costs of her dress down some! Great idea, at first, but I wanted to make more and more! Then orders started coming and the feedback from my fans was overwhelming (I'm really so thankful to all of you who have brought me to where I am today!) I'm comfortable! Really, I'm busy enough where I'm happy and get to do what I like and that is sew and design! But i have enough down time that I get to spend so much time with my little ones.

I want to be that mom that can make it to little league games, or dance class, music lessons, whatever their little heart desires and not have work restrictions! And working from home with WWC has given me JUST that!

So as a thank you! and really Thank YOU! as without you I wouldn't be where I am today! (and the meaning of this post) is to post this coupon code! If you are reading this blog, and a true fan of WWC I want to offer you 10% off! So for as long as I can This code will be just for you! use it over and over again to enjoy my items at a discount as a thank you!
