Blossom Party Dress - MARKET NIGHT

Do you have a special occasion coming up soon or just want to reward yourself with a pretty new dress?

My gorgeous happy customers wearing their new Blossom Party Dresses

Well, I'm so excited to be having my first Market Night this Wednesday 29th Feb, 8pm Qld time, for my new Blossom Party Dresses.  (Kids clothes Market Night will be following in 2 weeks time)

It's been overwhelming with the response for my new dresses (thank you) and to keep order in my life and to be able to work on my children's range as well I'll only be opening orders for my dresses 1 night per month with 10 custom spots available.  Also, I need to do a bulk order of fabric which will keep your costs and my costs down!

Ok, so here's how the Market Night will work.

• I have an album set up for the night
• proceedings will start at 8pm sharp (Qld time)
• please write SOLD only if you want to make a purchase and only under the photo called "10 custom spots available" - please don't put a SOLD under the photos of the dresses......as you may miss out!!
• then you need to send me your order and postal address and we can go from there
• if you miss out on being one of the lucky 10 to place an order check back with me in a few days as someone may have cancelled
• if the 10 custom spots are taken please still write SOLD as someone may cancel and that way I can contact you
• payment needs to be made within 7 days or your spot will go to the next person wishing to place an order

Now here's the best part:

• if you are one of my VIP customers you will be able to grab a custom spot 1 hour before - 7pm Qld time.
• to become a VIP customer you need to be on my email list.  If you would like to do this just enter your details to the right of this post.

As always, if you have any questions before the night please ask away....I'm here to help.

See you Wednesday night.

Ladies Blossom Party Dresses

I'm so excited to announce that my very new addition to the 1 Puddle Lane ladies range.....The Blossom Party Dress.......is now available to order!

My lovely friend, Dee, looks fabulous modelling her new Blossom Party Dress

I thought about the price extensively and didn't know which way to go so I have 3 prices for you to choose from to help you out.

1. FULL CUSTOM MADE - $150 - you will receive a Blossom Party Dress made to fit you. Along with choosing the style and fabric you'll need to fill in a measurement form. Which I will send to you after you place your order. I can also help you with choosing fabrics that will suit your colouring! In other words, I work with you all the way to make sure you get a beautiful dress that you are happy with.

2. PART CUSTOM MADE - $120 - if you don't quite fit the standard size and you just want either the waist smaller or bigger or the bust smaller or bigger the length of the skirt shorter or longer. This service will be covered in this price. I can also help you with choosing fabrics that will suit your colouring!

3. STOCK SIZES - $105 - these will be dresses made from standard sizes ranging from size 8 to size 18. Below you'll find a sizing chart to compare your measurements to. If the measurements are right for you.....fantastic. Easy peasy! You're done and good to go. All you need to do is choose your fabrics.

Now, that you've chosen which way you want to go with the price all you need to do is:

• choose the style of dress on my facebook page 
• choose your neckline 
• choose the fabric (or with options 1 and 2......I can help you with that) 
• choose your size from the chart below if you are going for Option 3 (stock sizes)
• send through your order to 1puddlelane@gmail.com with which option you would like to go with.  I'll then send out a measurement form for option 1 only.
• I'll send you an invoice which will need to be paid before I order in the fabric
• all dresses are made to order and will take between 3 and 4 weeks  to process - depending on how long it takes for the fabric to reach me from America.
• when you get your order I'll then send you a quick questionnaire that I would love you to fill out for me to see how happy you are with your order.
• Postage will cost $11.00 for either Express or Registered.  Please let me know your choice of postage.
• if you are one of my special VIP ladies on my email list you'll receive 10% off your order for 1 week only (valid Wednesday 1st February, 2012 to Wednesday 7th February, 2012)  Click here if you'd like to be a VIP and take advantage of the discount.

There is up to 5cm easing in the bust and 3 to 5cm easing in the waist for the standard sizes below.

I look forward to hearing from you soon and if you have any questions please email me.

Loving my new iPhone

Have iPhone will travel!  Right?  Have you got an iPhone.......do you love it as much as I do?  I'm a bit of an Apple groupie at the moment.  I love my iMac, Macbook, iPad and now my new iPhone.  I often say that if there was an Apple Church I would go every Sunday.

I'm finding I'm rediscovering my home and my neighbourhood through the lens of my phone AND instagram.  And really enjoying it!

So I decided to take a few pics and I thought what a better subject than the other item I'm absolutely loving at the moment.  My Blossom Party Dress.  So I thought I'd take you on a small journey of the making of my favourite dress.  Did I mention I have 5 of these in my wardrobe now and wear them everywhere!

Enjoying the fruits of my labour AND hubby took me out to dinner!

My Blossom Party Dress will be made available to order on Wednesday 1st February and I have a little sweetener to add to the mix, but you'll have to wait till Wednesday to find out more.  

Until then pop on over the my facebook page and check out the styles and fabric selections.  I know I want 1 of each!!
