Cross your fingers for me - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hey Everyone,

So I have 15 harness dresses and 6 vest harnesses ready to bring to the pet store. I have no idea what she has in mind, it could be that she buys them or perhaps she will sell on consignment. Either way should she actually sell them it will be SO exciting to see my creations on the shelf

I love the store too. The owner Kelly is amazing. She is a vet tech who decided to open a pet store. She tells me that she is trying to create a boutique type of atmosphere. She has a groomer and tomorrow I am bringing Chloe in, I have heard great things about her.

Kelly has been so good to me too. As we all know Yorkies are fussy little furballs and Chloe is the worst! Kelly has given me 7 different foods to try with each sample containing over a weeks worth of food! We found a winner which is a raw diet thanks to Kelly giving me an entire container of food to try. It would be great if my clothes sell as that would pay for miss fussy faces food LOL.

So cross your fingers and I will let you know how I made out. Oh and I will be taking pics of what I made and sharing them tomorrow

Great for you, that is fantastic! We'll keep our fingers and paws crossed for you.

I have a wholesale side and it's a great feeling. It's really exciting when I go in and see my products hanging. Please let us know what happens. Good luck to you.

I wish you luck, I sew but am not brave enough to sell outfits I make for the pups

So the good news. She LOVED the dresses and harnesses!!! She said she was amazed at how perfect my sewing was and how straight the stiches were, thank goodness because I am always so worried that my isnt good enough. So this was a big leap of faith in myself and it paid off. I have left the items with her while Chloe gets groomed and told her to select any that she wants. We agreed on a price that we are both happy with and YIPPEE I am providing something of an income!!! ( looking for work lol)

The bad news, the charger for my cameras battery is MIA!!!! So no pics yet. I will go to the shop and snap some pics with my DH's point and shoot when I go back to the store. So will still get pics.

I also brought in a bathrobe and pair of jeans with rhinestone monogrammed pockets and she loved both as well so she wants to carry those too!! i am SOOOO happy right now!!!!

Going to be SO neat going in and seeing my stuff for sale
