I have wonderful news and not so good news!

The good news first ... after much thought, I have decided to reopen my custom tailored and special occasions vest and dress harnesses to allow everyone, including those that have made a deposit to finally go ahead and place an order with complete details and options. For those who have made a deposit, I will go ahead and refund the amount once your order comes in. Bear with me as this might happen when I return back from my trip as the remaining days before travelling will be so chaotic . Hubby is currently working on the website and so most likely the vest and dress harnesses section will be available by tomorrow morning . . I just thought I'd give everyone a head's up as to what is about to happen . . .

I have also added a new option to include embroidery monogramming. Jenn has made a request for which we feel it is to the best interest for everyone to have the option to chose their own monogramming SDave me the work of figuring out as well Please check out the font options available for monogramming when the site reopens . I have made sure there is a good selection available . . . Due to limitations of selecting options from our shopping cart, you will however be unable to choose your own thread colors. My intent is to color coordinate the font colors based on the trim color or selection of fabric. If you ABSOLUTELY want to select your own colors, please note it down in the cart checkout under the comments or special instructions area and I will do my best to accomodate you.

okay the bad news ... Although I will only be gone from 9/27/2007 through10/06/2007, my technical support person is extending his travel dates through 10/14. Because I am unfamiliar with handling the downloading of orders to process from paypal, it has been decided that the entire website be SHUT DOWN from 9/27/07 through 10/14/07. All orders coming in up through 9/26/07 will be downloaded to allow me the capability of shipping orders that are completed. My technical support no longer wishes me to ship out packages without any paperwork as it requires him to do so much more work whenever I circumvent the process and I sure do that a lot . He has attempted to quit helping me several time so I better do as I am told . . . for those who have already made the deposit, I urge you to make sure to put your orders in as I will be working on your orders first . . . I'd hate to not be able to get your order shipped out as soon as I am done only because you missed the deadline of putting your orders in. I will make sure to PM you as well in case you miss this posting.

Please place your orders immediately to beat the holiday RUSH. We will be closing the "Products" section on Wednesday 9/26/2007 evening at 6:00 PM and won't be reopening until 10/14. That only gives you about 4 days to get your orders in.

We apologize for the inconvenience but we believe we will be serving you better by not allowing orders to come in during our absence making it impossible for us to attend to them.
