March has been our highest selling month on etsy to date. Coco & Bubbles has been so successful we are now placed in various retail shops across the US. Working with a distributor of 150 stores in Canada to place our candles in and even was asked to donate 500 of our 6 oz. tin candles to the Parkinsons Disease Foundation’s Bal Du Primtemps Gala. Due to the success this month we actually took the giant leap of making Coco & Bubbles legal. We are now an LLC with our own business checking account :) This may mean nothing really to you, but to us it is the first step of really becoming entrepreneurs. We have the drive, ideas and the want from customers to keep growing. This now leads me to this post. The picture you are viewing is our first paid print ad. Will we get the return from the amount we paid for this ad? No idea, but we want to keep spreading the word. Our ad is featured in Charlotte Home + Garden magazine. We are very excited and can’t wait for the coming months to see what other ways we will expand our new company.

We do have a new website coming out, still working on the back-end to post everything, but a post will happen in the near future on how amazing it looks!!

So clever, wish I had thought of this. Really want this in my house :)

After some long hours making these bad boys they are finally up on our Etsy store. So go ahead and get you one of our lovely 6oz tins :)

Seems like the accident is in the past and life has quickly fast-forwarded to normal. I’ve been busy with work, etsy and photography. Life is perfect again, well almost besides the no car and these medical bills adding up, but that’s another story. I love that besides being broken…bones that is, that people still give me the chance to shoot for them. They trust me and that means alot. Here is a recent photo-shoot of little Easton. Means so much to me knowing that the parents are happy with the shoot. These are memories that will last with them forever and I was a part of it :)

All-natural soy candles on sale for 2/29. A special “Leap Year’s Sale” where we took 29% off of all our candle prices. Sale ends 11:59 PM EST on 2/29. Discounts don’t ever reach this high so take advantage of candle prices at $13.15 :) Fun scents such as Hazelnut + Coffee, Clean Cotton, Banana Nut Bread, Cucumber Sage + Lavender and much more! Did I mention how cute these guys are packaged? Oh, I didn’t? Well, these 13oz tumblers are packaged in a hand-stamped burlap bag. They are the perfect gift!!

A little self-promoting and bragging on my part. I still got it even with a broken collarbone and shoulder :) First shoot back since my car accident. See the full post at http://lbephotography.blogspot.com/2012/02/courtney-and-ryan.html

So not only a broken clavicle, but also a broken scapula too. Stupid ER xray techs missed it completely. Took me five days after to find out. Atleast we know and our on the way to recovery.

Shot of my desktop today. Working from home and enjoying every minute of it. It’s nice to be comfortable and productive at the same time.
