Welcome!

Good Morning, I hope you will all join me in welcoming our newest member:

Meet Bertie from Aunt May's Cottage on 3rd and 4th Avenues!
Third Avenue
Fourth Avenue
Seems Bertie has been collecting and creating for many happy years following her love of the "Victorian era". You'll love her unique treasures : )

Also, our contest is in its last 10 days and the drawing is drawing near (April 15th). This means we are taking requests for our next trimester contest. This could be just the thing you are looking for to boost those summer sales. We will take up to ten shops to highlight. The price is $25 and the contest will run from late April through late August. Of this amount $10 will go toward the Gift Certificate. If we don't have ten shops, Victorian Heart Shoppe will make up the difference of the $100 prize. Please check out the contest page for an example of what your exposure will look like over the next four months.
Contest Page
The shops are rotated throughout the contest and each shoppe has a share of the re-directs from the entry form. Our entry winner chooses one of the shops on the contest page to spend their Gift Certificate at and we PayPal that shop the amount of the Gift Certificate. (Could be you!)

Thanks,
Vic

No Foolin'

Good Morning and Happy April Fool's Day! I hope you haven't been caught off guard yet today : ) I have to admit that I was with one e-mail but there was no harm done! Please take a few minutes of your day to visit our featured shop for April:

April's Featured Shop

We thank Karen of Sweet Necessi-Teas for bringing us her new 'floating banner' and wholesale program!

My mom called this morning with "winter wonderland" images of Minnesota. Hope that all of you around the country are safe and warm!

Greetings,
Vic

Spring Cleaning

Good Morning Everyone, Almost April and snowstorms across the country! We're even expecting snow in New Mexico today. Stay warm out there!

We would like to extend warm greetings to our newest member, Nancy of Coeur d'Alene Gifts (maybe I'll learn how to spell that w/o looking). You will find Nancy's inviting shop on First and Second Avenues:
First Avenue
Second Avenue

Please take a minute out of your busy day to pay her a visit. Nancy says she already recognizes some friendly faces here : )

I am attaching a "Spring Cleaning" article that I found very helpful for my Victorian Laurels Shop. It is by author, Terri Seymour. I will also post it on our blog. (To see full article scroll to bottom!) Have a great day!

Regards,
Vic

Good Morning, It is a beautiful March day in New Mexico but I see that the east coast has not been so lucky. Hope all of you out there are tucked in to weather the storm : ) We have just a few tidbits of housekeeping today!

Please stop by our March feature page where 'Roses and Teacups' has brought us some lovely one-of-a-kind items for spring:

Our own Victorian Laurels shop is starting the year off right with a bountiful Valentine's Sweetheart Box, a fun gift for any woman.

We will be billing January renewals sometime today. If you need an explanation or a payment plan just e-mail us and we will work it out.
Our new contest has had a great start and we are hitting the ground running in '09. As always we welcome your greetings, suggestions, prayer requests, or just a friendly hello! God has richly blessed us with this community and we thank all of you for your support.

In appreciation,

Good Morning and Happy Cyber Monday! We hope this day marks the beginning of a holiday boom : ) Even though Christmas spending is down, we know that our "nostalgic gifts" of Christmas' past still have a vast consumer audience!

Take a minute to visit the ladies at "Roses and Teacups" who are our December Featured site:

December's Featured Site

Enjoy their "Front Page" 3-day Specials now through Christmas! What beautiful collections from gifted artists they have in store for you!

We pray that the next two weeks resolve everyone's expectations for 2008 and let each of us thrive in the "spirit" of giving : ) We are truly blessed!

Thanks,
Vic & Jeff
