Happy 2022!

Well, off we go to another market in Dallas. I can’t believe we’ll be buying for this coming Fall and Christmas. When we went to market in June we bought for our Spring/Summer season. So I’m reviewing all my pictures to see what I’ve got coming this spring/summer season. Vendors like to send all that you order at once because it helps them with shipping costs. When I buy, I try to take advantage of special promos that will give me a better shipping rate and pass those savings on to my customers.

April

I wanted to give you a little taste of what I’ve got coming. We hope that the shipping problems are getting better. But I’m going to be using the upcoming months to get products made and bought to make sure that we have enough products for the upcoming season. April, of The Added Touch, has not had near the problems getting her clothing in as I have had getting the home décor.

You can bet, while I’m at market that I will be asking my vendors what they are hearing about their spring shipments. Believe me, they are as interested in that subject as I am. If they don’t have the products, just like us, they don’t have the sales.

Let’s look at some of the products I’ve ordered in June for this Spring!

This bird nest wreath has always been a top seller for us. Of course, I dress it up a little bit.

This would brighten any entry in your home or on your front porch.

Who doesn’t love geraniums in the summer months?

Hummingbirds are the greatest little creatures.

I’ve always loved interesting and unusual clocks.

This vase is for your spring and summer cuttings. I can’t wait to get these in.

This one will handle a lot more stems or even a bouquet.

We’ll doesn’t this make you long for warmer days? They’ll be here before you know it. In the meantime let’s just plan on a bright and sunshiny new year.

Blessings!
Debbie
