Hello Everyone!

I’m so sorry it’s been so long since the last newsletter.  I just finished exams and got caught up on Etsy orders.  And just in time for our team “Spring Cleaning Sale”!  Yay! J  Be sure and RSVP if you are coming (see details below).

Alright, on to the list of business topics to cover:

1.     Local Destash Party-
Columbia’s Famously Hot Etsy Team’s “Spring Cleaning Sale” is this Saturday, May 21 from 9am-noon.  Please see the attached file for the guidelines for the sale.  It will help answer any questions you may have about the event.  For any other questions please email natures.adornments@yahoo.com
A note from Melinda:
"At this time, I would like anyone who thinks they can attend the Spring Cleaning Sale to please email me at natures.adornments@yahoo.com to let me know the following...

2.What Snack food you will bring.

2.     Supporting A Good Cause-
“I am so excited, proud, and truly fortunate to be working with an amazing organization called Handbags for Hope to help raise money for a great cause!! Handbags for Hope is a Greenville, South Carolina based group who along with their honorary chairwoman Andie McDowell and the South Carolina Ovarian Cancer Foundation are doing extraordinary things to benefit Ovarian Cancer!! Every year they host a silent auction event where they auction off purses signed by some amazing celebrities!! Last years event included bags signed by Sheryl Crow, Eva Longoria, Taylor Lautner, Brad Paisley, and Carrie Underwood…just to name a few :) These women are hard at work once again preparing for their 5th annual event and already have bags signed by Nicholas Sparks, Lady Antebellum, Sugarland, the Cast of La Cage Aux Folles (including Kelsey Grammer), and the Cast of Monte' Carlo (including Andie MacDowell and Selena Gomez). In honor of this event, I have designed the bracelets and flowers in my HOPE Collection with 100% of the proceeds going to Handbags for Hope!! Please join me in supporting this great cause!!
