Yay, the mailing list was retrieved! So be on the lookout in the next few days as we'll be sending out an awesome SALE email in celebration!
SparklePuss.com will be CLOSED for about three weeks. The shopping cart will remain open, but orders won't be filled until March 15th as we deal with a family crisis. Also, I'm doing some training in fragrance & essential oils and perfumery which will require time to study. I'm hoping this training will enhance our offerings in the near future!

Wiener Bench by JackRabbit
My whole life I've been trying to be someone I'm not.
Some time after I finally came to grips with my NEED for cREEEativity, I found Etsy.com
The Upcycling Contest is a fascinating study in the immense capacity some individuals have for thinking outside the box...
Wiener Bench Winner!

The Proud Business Owner
Let's look back and review how I've tried to blow up my own business in the past week...
I sent a corrected email to my fabulous customers that created everyone to be RE-OPTED-IN to the list, but the link is missing, so no one can opt-in at all. This has sent my entire list into techno-purgatory. Hoping the engineering department can retrieve it!
Being sick in bed for two full days has not helped my production schedule.
Hmmm, what else...well, my shopping cart has been "new and improved" to meet privacy regulations. (Do you ever feel like something is backwards in the world? I mean, we have all this privacy stuff, for good reason, but yet, when I go to Baskin & Robbins for a double-scoop of ice cream, I can't help but notice the seeing eye camera watching my every LICK!) Anyways, the change has totally effected the way we process our Valet Shipping™ and bulk tealight shipping. So I've enjoyed the past few hours re-structuring the site so all shipping costs are charged appropriately upon checkout-no easy feat!
I LOVE running my own business...but I must admit...sometimes the inevitable "whoopsies" of business life can be a challenge in ADDITION to the inevitable "whoopsies" of normal life!!
And a sad announcement for our friends in Canada, we are no longer shipping to Canada. We intend to include Canada in our shipping plans as we grow, but for right now it is less complicated for our part-time business to ship only to the US.
I think that's all for now!
Thanks for visiting SparklePuss Super-Scented Soy Candles & Tarts blog...I think they should change the name of "blog" to "blah-g" like blah-blah-blah.
