Are you ready for Black Friday?


Black Friday is coming...it's coming so fast.  In addition to nearly being caught up on delayed orders, I have some surprise items for Black Friday....I wonder how long they'll last?  I've been working hard, packaging, shipping, and more - to get the last of these delayed orders sent out the door.  Back in September I had an unlucky break, when I did something to my back leaving lots of pain in its wake.  A little over a month of bed rest, 5 weeks of physical therapy, and still more, I'm down to the very last of your orders - I can't hardly stand it! :)  okay...so I was just trying to get a little rhyme going, but I've lost my trail of thought.  Children are terrific at doing that!


To get to the point, YES I had a rather unfortunate situation in September.  I had hurt my back somehow (I truly don't even remember what I was doing), and it left me on bedrest for a month plus quite a bit of physical therapy that I am still continuing.  I'm 15 weeks pregnant you see, and my doctor can't send me off for xrays or mri's to really find out what's wrong, so we're doing some guess work treatment that combines lots of rest, ice, heat, and physical therapy without the use of any pain killers or muscle relaxers.  I have been doing remarkably well in the last two weeks, able to put in many hours in the office to catch up on all of the delayed orders from before my injury.  I am nearly there!  I expect to have the last of these orders shipped out before the end of the week.


Now........I know many of you are excitedly waiting to learn which vendors are participating in Black Friday sale events.  I can happily tell you that I have some amazing deals and prizes (YES!  You heard that right....FREE GIFTS!!) lined up for Black Friday.  My huge event will begin on Friday and last all weekend long in the shop.  I will be open with you all - I have very limited quantities of all the goodies that will be present in the sale.  And did I mention prizes???  The first 30 orders at the start of the sale will receive FREE GIFTS valued at $80.  Oh the surprises!!  I am excited to set this sale loose...but first you will have to wait 5 agonizingly long days until Black Friday arrives.  I cannot ruin the suspense before you've at least had a chance to indulge in a delicious turkey dinner on Thanksgiving.  Black Friday sale announcements will be posted on my Facebook page starting at noon.  DOORBUSTER information will be arriving in the form of my newsletter Thursday night and again on Friday morning.  If you are not signed up for my newsletter, please feel free to register here or comment with your email address at the end of this blog post.  I promise it will be worth your time.


I very much hate to cut off so soon, but I have an enormous amount of preparation to put in place for this huge Black Friday SALE event.  Have a lovely holiday week, be safe if you have to travel, and enjoy all that wonderful time with family & friends.
PS...each month I give away a $50 prop swag bag stuffed with a lovely assortment of props.  To get entered for this goody bag, don't forget to email your images of Lavender Gray items in use to my email at lavendergraydesigns@gmail.com  Also you can enter on Instagram for a runner-up $10 shop credit simply by reposting this image --below--  on Instagram and using the hashtag #lavendergray
