catalog???

We were recently contacted by a catalog company that was interested in possibly carrying one of our shirts. We are so excited to put together our sample and send it off for their review. If we make it in the catalog we should hear from them in September. They are looking to have one of our designs exclusively for their catalog - which can be found both online and via the mail to people's homes. This would be huge exposure for us since we mainly reach women in New Hampshire. We will keep you posted if, and when, we hear from them. Cross your fingers for us.

Cheers,
Jennifer and Sarah

The Bedford Bulletin

We were recently featured in the Bedford Bulletin! The newspaper highlighted our artist Dana for adding her artistic flare to our designs. Our photo was in the paper as well. Very exciting for us to be seen again in black and white. Under our photo, they mentioned that you can find our shirts online, at Bedford Custom Baskets, and at the New England Velodrome. They forgot to mention that you can also purchase our shirts at J.M. Princewell on the oval in Milford. Unfortunately, when we send out our press release we have no control of how they edit our information. We are just lucky that we did get in the paper.

Cheers,

Sold Out!

Our most popular shirt, the Jarah in raspberry, is all sold out. We weren't planning on ordering the shirt in that color until our friend, Molly, saw our sample shirts and said, "I would buy one in this color." I thought, "Well I know I will get at least one sale if we order the shirt in raspberry." So we ordered 24 raspberry Jarahs and yesterday we sold the very last one. We will be ordering more, since she is such a hot seller, but we might wait until after we order our next design which is the "Vodka on the Rocks" - which you can see on the "Coming Soon" page of our website. You can also cast your vote for the next design to come out after we have "Vodka" completed- we have two posted on the site and dozens more in the idea box waiting to be sketched up. Check us out and see what will be the next design to become sold out!

Cheers,
Jennifer and Sarah

Our artist

I just wanted to write a blog about our artist, Dana. She has been working for us for practically nothing and we could not have done our business thus far without her. Her drawings are so fun and they really capture the vision Sarah and I have for each shirt design. She does several drafts of each design until we get the image perfect. We would like to thank her for all the time she has spent, and we are hoping to cut her another check soon for a small portion of the money we owe her! So help us out and spread the word - the more shirts we sell, the more able we will become to pay her! Dana also has a website - if you would like to see her other pieces of artwork - www.ABreathofFreshArt.com

Cheers,
Jennifer and Sarah

Draft Beer

Our latest shirt, "Draft Beer," is selling well. We have sold 5 so far this week. Tracey has earned a few bucks for the New England velodrome - two sold by her alone. We gave her a stack of shirts so she would be able to have multiple sizes for anyone interested in purchasing. We are hoping that we can order our next shirt "Vodka on the Rocks" - we just need to sell at least 15 more tees to help foot the bill for the next order of shirts - so if you know any cyclist, please spread the word for us. Thanks!

Cheers,
Jennifer and Sarah

Namaste Australia!

We have broken out of the US and we are now international! Michelle Baldwin, the owner of Hot Tropical Yoga of Queensland Australia, found us through Google and just ordered six shirts and a bag! We could not be more excited - you have to love the internet for sure! How else could two stay-at-home moms reach halfway across the world to share our fun little idea with the women down under. We will be putting a link to Michelle's website on ours and she has offered to do the same for us. I have to say that so far during our experience with this little business of ours we have come across some very wonderful and supportive women. Cheers to you, Michelle!

Namaste,
Jennifer and Sarah

thank you Tracey!

I just wanted to write a little something about one of our favorite customers, Tracey. She has been selling our shirts for us at the New England Velodrome in Londonderry, NH, and today emailed me that she sold three more shirts! I could not be more excited. She is really one of our biggest fans, and is even asking her friends to go to her house to check out our shirts. 20% of all of her sales go to the cycling programs at the velodrome. We should be getting our "Draft Beer" shirt in around July 15th and hopefully that will stir up some more business at the velodrome.
Thanks again, Tracey!!!!

Cheers,
Jennifer and Sarah

press release

We were very excited to see that our press release made it into the local paper. We were trying to get a press release out to the papers in the area and had no luck. A friend of mine whose parents run the paper here in town asked me to get rid of all the references to alcohol because they most likely wouldn't put something in the paper, that would be going into the homes of families, with anything alcohol related. Once we removed the references and resubmitted it we were put in the business section! They did edit what I had written and removed the part where I named the local businesses that are selling our shirts - which was a total bummer - I thought maybe if the person reading didn't get a chance to look at us online she could at least go into one of the stores and see our product up close and personal. Anyway, it was in the paper and it did mention our promotion with T-Bones so people could see our shirts on display in the lobbies there.
