Sorry for disappearing!

I know this is way overdue!

I believe I have some of the sweetest customers around as I have started getting emails the last few weeks asking if everything is okay since I haven't blogged very much or done many sales. If anything, things are actually pretty great! So great especially at awG that the pile of Clearance items I have yet to place on my website have been placed on the back burner so I could mix up more stock (specifically foundation and powder) and fill orders as they come in.

It just seemed that every time I would get a free moment thinking I would have time to blog or get the Clearance stuff up, either a large block of orders needed to be filled or I would have something going on with my non-business life that would take up my time considerably that I could not attend to awG. In handling awG,  I always want to make sure orders are filled first above anything else so that is actually what is taking up my time.

So just let me take this time to thank you all for continuing to support adorned with Grace--so much so that I suspect there are quite of few of you that are blogging about us and keeping us on our toes!

I do want to note that I am still behind on mixing up some of my stock so if I ever fall way too far behind, I *might* have to close the store down for a little while (hopefully not more than 2-4 weeks) to get caught up sometime this summer so if you are a regular customer who orders products from us, make sure to get your order in by mid-May 2011 just to make sure you have what you need should we have to temporarily close down early this summer.

As far as my own health, my arm is actually (dare I say or jinx it, lol) better and what I believe to be 100% now! The other thing that has kept me busy is taking full charge of my health which has included switching over to a 90% raw vegan diet, getting my cardio in for optimal circulation along with adding back in my strength training as my arm has healed, and attempting to REST more--the best recovery remedy of all!!!--that I think I am in even better health than when I left for Christmas! If things slow down in the near future, I may blog about this at my Graceful Coach Blog. I haven't been active there much either, but I do post to Twitter every other/couple days when I remember to since I am forced to keep it short and sweet over there, lol.

So that is what has been up with adorned with Grace! Hope all is well for every one of you!!!

See you in 2012!

So we are now officially closed in preparation for the move! This means that we will have very limited Internet access the next month or two due to the amount of work we have to do packing and traveling so if we are slow to answer, it is not that we are ignoring you, but that we just are unable to. If there are any problems with orders, please understand that we will have everything packed up and cannot ship any items until the move is complete. We would like to remind those that place International orders, we cannot do anything about it anyway unless you purchased Shipping Insurance. For those that did purchase it and have an issue, again it will be at least 1-2 months before we can do anything anyway as we ask you to wait about 60 days from the time your order ships out before we can do anything. As of right now, we are still processing orders but we expect them all to be shipped out by early next week. We are actually pleasantly overwhelmed with the amount of orders that came in...

Less than a week before closing!

Just reminding everyone that our store will be temporarily closing this Thursday, Sept. 8 with the last day to shop on Sept. 7. We have added some new Clearance items such as Grab Bags of the discontinued both sample and full-size of Blush & Eyecolors as well as Blush & Eyecolor bundles. Most of these items are going fast so if you would like to get them act soon! However, you may also risk it and wait to save more as we are going to be issuing a discount code either Sept. 4 or 5, so definitely check back here then. As with our other coupon codes, though, because it is a rather large percentage (more so than any other time we've issued them) this will only be for orders $15 or more, so go ahead and order if yours is less than $15 not including shipping. Our powders and foundations and some of the Clearance items are going pretty fast out of stock though so if you don't want to risk running out of inventory, definitely order soon! We want the last couple days to move...

 I had no idea it would be so challenging. You would think that I could just “pick up” where we left off with adorned with Grace, but the market has changed pretty significantly in 10 years! I do not remember having to work so hard making the products and on the website many years ago. The latter has been especially difficulty—but…I think I had a bit of writer’s block when trying to get everything jump started. I realized that in continuing adorned with Grace, I felt important to clarify to myself what adorned with Grace would be. Back then, it started as a creative outlet for me, to make cosmetics for hard-to-match skin tones like mine, and to promote true beauty ideas for a positive influence in the world. All still true, of course! But before I could go any further, I felt impressed to elaborate on our values and mission, so this is what I wrote down last week: *To be a light to those in darkness who are held down from their true identity in God. *To unite women and model how we...
