Exciting developments... New products to come shortly

Ok, so its been nearly 3 weeks now since i 'quit my day job'... well for a while, until we get back from backpacking europe in october, then ill be getting a parttime job just get me out of the house and away from the sewing machine and computer :) In that time, its been fantastic to catch up on orders and finally feel in control of what is going on. Even welcoming a new wholesaler to the Natalie Briggs Garters family :) http://www.lourdesmilian.com/ . Ive even now been able to cook dinner everynight and iron my husbands work shirts, much to Chirs's enjoyment and excitement, bouncing around the house when he comes home and ive backed him a chocolate slice with coconut on top (whats his obsession with coconut??? i dont know, he wants coconut on everything nowadays)

Anyway i have about 20 new lines to unveil which i have been working on. I love making new items, but not so good at actually listing them on the internet, that part takes so much more time! Hopefully tomorrow after ive been to my favourite post office, had a cup of lady grey tea and a sneaky biscuit out of the cupbord, i might finally get down to business and publish all of these beautiful collections for my brides to admire and order for their special day :D  And then after this collection is up i have 10 new concepts im going to be working on in the next week or two, a COMPLETELY FRESH NEW TAKE on bridal garter designs and embellishments, which is very exciting. Some VERY unique designs to come.

In the mean time put your feet up and see some of the new additions soon to be in http://www.nataliebriggs.etsy.com/ shop :)

Wholesale Orders now available online 24/7

Im now starting to set up a secure wholesale website for my retailers to order from. Ordering over email was proving difficult and messy. So to make it easier for my wholesalers and me, you can now order at wholesale prices (if you are a bridal businesses looking to resale my products). I accept payment through Paypal, which you can also use to pay with credit and debit cards very securely with peace of mind :)
