Do not be sad though,<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; "> it will stay Teapot</span>, as the new owner, Natalie is going to keep it just as it is! She will make a few tweeks, like bringing in some less expensive clothing and gift items. She also has her women's clothing and she will now offer the birthday parties 7 days a week!! Natalie is a young woman that has come from a family of retail. Her mother owned many retail stores and loved every minute. She was the face of Shabby Chic up here in Sonoma County. Natalie is caring on her legacy and has brought some great new ideas of her own. <br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Kayse and I are proud of all the work we have put into our store. We loved getting to know each and every one of you. Your stories, your children, your grandchildren. You were held in our hearts whether it was your first time in or your 100th, we knew you! We worked hard on creating and moving and re-creating Teapot. Through 2 locations, 2 new names and a couple of different employees...it is what it is now and we are proud! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Please make Natalie feel welcome by stopping in and introducing yourselves. We do keep you all in mind when the purchasing happens. We think...hum would so and so love this? Yes, I think we will buy it for them. So come in, tell her your story and get to know her. She is anxious to get to know you! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Do not worry, all our information is the same, same website, same phone number, same enjoyment in the store. Just under new ownership. We are NOT closing. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Thank you so very much, from the bottom of our hearts, for taking this ride with us. What an adventure. Now Kayse and I are off to start a new adventure. I will be teaching and Kayse will be chasing after her gaggle of girls! </div><div style="text-align: center;">With many more smiles and happiness through-out,</div><div style="text-align: center;">Good bye from </div><div style="text-align: center;">Ashley and Kayse and </div><div style="text-align: center;">Hello from Natalie! <br /></div></div>Teapothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18442425427378979022noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508392698371648862.post-16386432918720050992009-03-16T16:44:00.000-07:002009-03-16T16:45:55.310-07:00Spring Has Sprung This Friday Craft!!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NzMLkQB0BpQ/Sb7kqhM0AUI/AAAAAAAAAZo/scmZtIk-w1I/s1600-h/avacupcake.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313936029461512514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 134px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NzMLkQB0BpQ/Sb7kqhM0AUI/AAAAAAAAAZo/scmZtIk-w1I/s200/avacupcake.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div align="center">"Spring has Sprung"<br />Story Time, Gardening Craft & Tea<br /><br />Join us at Teapot to welcome spring!

She said her father made her one long ago and I just had to try it myself. I guess it supposed to be easy... <div><br /></div><div>Soldiers long ago, when board, used to tap away at coins that were made out of 95% silver *pre 1964*. They would tap the edges with a spoon over and over and over, until they produced a silver coin ring. If they can do it with a spoon then I sure as heck can do it with a hammar and drill!</div><div><div><br /></div><div>So I went and found some quarters at a local coin shop and decided to give it a try. First I started taping with a hammer (much easier then a spoon!). Soon they sides were smooth and round. Then I drilled out the middle. Unfortunately my drill and my dremmal ran out of juice so they are charging right now.. here is a picture of my process. <img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NzMLkQB0BpQ/SW_HPui06UI/AAAAAAAAAW4/oVonynSlwRw/s320/DSCF9003.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291667160189692226" /><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NzMLkQB0BpQ/SW_HP9a49yI/AAAAAAAAAXA/jIi0JpKRUOQ/s320/DSCF9004.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291667164182935330" /></div><div>I started with a quarter and then decided that I should make one out of a half dollar for my love.

We enjoyed an amazing time in Mexico. Holbox was a peaceful island that allowed us all to wash our worries away and relax. <img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NzMLkQB0BpQ/SWTAWodH8gI/AAAAAAAAAVQ/z99yi7shGSU/s320/DSCF1127.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288563357489033730" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Kelsey ran the store perfectly, she brought in money that we needed and when I arrived on Monday found the store in clean, neat order. We are so blessed to have her in our lives!! </div><div style="text-align: center;">It's fun being back at work. Yes, I loved being away, but I love interacting with everybody as well. I love being at the store, productive, placing orders, rearranging and being a part of the community of shops in Historic Railroad Sq. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Just to let you all know a little incite into how we are doing.........</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We are hanging in there by the skin of our teeth. It is hard, as you all know to run a store in this economic crisis. We are trying to get inventive with how to keep the money coming in, so that in return we can place more orders, as well as pay ourselves (a feat we have yet to achieve!). But with your added support we are going to try to make it! We have too, we want too, we MUST! Our lease comes up for renewal in a couple months, can you believe we have been in this location for a year? We have tried to negotiate the conditions of the lease in some ways, but to no avail. So we will just cross our fingers and hope that we can make it all work. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We are thinking of some new ways of bringing in the money, for one would be to bring in Adult clothing as well. We are in the talks of subleasing to a woman that does very well with her clothing and it would flow with our children's lines. This way moms and daughters would be able to shop together! We also had the idea of bringing in a children's shoe store into 1/3 of the store but....we have yet to get a response for that posting. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I am so excited, because people are hearing about us down in LA...that must be a sign that we need to stay going!!! I am going to take it as that, at least :) <br /></div>Teapothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18442425427378979022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508392698371648862.post-61076519825535232722008-12-24T12:16:00.000-08:002008-12-24T12:17:50.169-08:00Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year<div align="center">We are off to Mexico to be with our family.

Well, simply because that is for you, we cant keep shopping here because then there is nothing left for you!</div><br /><br /><div>So we are out, running to every single store where there might possibly be something that maybe we could put the girls in for the holidays. Well, let me just tell you this! NO! There was NOT ONE PLACE WHERE WE COULD SHOP FOR THEM! It was unbelievable! Not one place that had children's clothing or shoes that did not look HORRIBLE! I mean, maybe we have high standards, but come on people. Where are we supposed to go to find something that is not cheap and ugly? Where??? After that day I am so surprised that we are not sold out.

Oops! </div><div style="text-align: center;">So I am standing in the craft isle..time ticking when I look up to some sock animals.. Perfect!! Fast and easy to make and the best part.. they could tell their dad that these were what he could have when they were not with him.
