after much ado, press check was done last tuesday at brown printing.
catalogs were completed and picked up thursday evening.
the hubs and i spent till after midnight stuffing them.
he loves me!!! :)
friday we all finished stuffing, labeling and sorting them.
and then to the p.o. to write the big check.
bulk mail is so much fun... NOT!
but it saves sooooo much money it's hard not to do it.
ahhhhhh! glad to have them done.
uber loving the cover and that new octopus clock!
Congratulations on the Beautiful magazines, Succes comes to those who work hard... wishing you the best of luck. xox

Hi Michelle; The catalogue looks so beautiful, what a lot of work. I noticed you have a black dog soap spitter on your front cover, however I dont see it on your website. Will you be adding it? Also I live in Canada do you ship here?
