The Shoppe Archives - 2 Cats and Chloe

The Tea Shoppe is Open… sort of.

January 28, 2014 by Susan 1 Comment

This is just one heck of a quick post, because I need to get downstairs to watch craziness that is The Bachelor… but I wanted to let you know that there are teas up for sale! Each day I will try to add some more! Head over to The Tea Shoppe page of my blog and read up on it! Right now there are only 3 tea options - but I promise more will be added daily!

Any of you who have etsy shop experience… send me your tips. I am thinking about starting a shop, but I wanted to test the “hot tea” waters first. (please laugh at my corny tea joke. thanks.)

In the mean time… go check it out! I am so in love with tea, and all of the healthy benefits that go along with it! And it’s the perfect time of year… we are supposed to get hit hard tomorrow with some more snow. As the saying goes… when it rains, it pours. Apparently the same goes for all precipitation.

It was a busy year…

… of partying.

Okay, well maybe not just partying. There were some other things. Like crafting. And packing with a little bit of moving. And glittering. And pondering. And planning. All for one weekend. One weekend of fun and glitter and love with all of my favorite people in the entire world.

I got married!

Even as a wedding planner by trade it wasn’t easy to balance life, work, blogging, unpacking, wedding crafting, wedding planning, and wedding partying. Because let’s be real… there’s a lot of partying involved when it comes to getting married.

We got engaged in January and set our wedding date for November 9, 2013. With an engagement party, a few showers, a couple birthday parties, holidays, and a bachelorette party (that was just a tad bit painful and required a solid week of recovery,) the actual wedding, the giant brunch that followed and then a week of honeymooning in paradise we literally spent the entire year surrounded by friends, eating good food and drinking good wine.

Which, trust me, all this celebrating definitely doesn’t yield an un-fun year. But I will be quite frank with you… when all the dust settles and you find yourself in a new situation, in a new house, with a new relationship status and new last name on facebook - it’s time you find your roots. And go back to the things that made you happy pre-wedding year.

Like blogging.

And creating weddings that are not my own.

And writing.

And sipping tea or drinking wine.

So let me let you in on a little secret. No Mother, it’s not a grand-baby (nor will it be for anytime in the near future!) I am reopening the 2 Cats & Chloe Shoppe! I have really been enjoying my own delicious loose leaf teas and want to share it with all of you! Plus, it’s the perfect time of ~~life~~ the year to sip tea with the ones you love.

Notice the image above? Do you see the coupon code on there? You need to take a mental note or maybe just pin it on your “too hot to handle wish list” pinterest board… The grand re-opening will be January 1, 2014. And for the first month we are open I am giving you 10% off your purchase!

I know, it’s been quite a while… So how’s this blog gonna work? My goal is to take 2 Cats & Chloe back to what it was. Me, writing about life, joy, my family, my travels, wine and tea, and my new shoppe. Please continue to follow along with me on this awesome ride.

Don’t remember how to get in touch with me? Well don’t be bashful friend - it’s okay to ask for my digits! Well, maybe not my digits really. Pretty positive the hubs would go all totes magoats crazy over that one. But I will give you a trillion other ways to follow along and stay in touch:

Mother’s Day Idea!

May 4, 2012 by Susan Leave a Comment

AH! I feel like I have neglected my blog all week! The problem is… the blog doesn’t pay the bills. Sadly. {How great would it be if all I had to do was travel and blog?! A girl can dream right?}

But I wanted to bring you a quick idea as I hear the Today Show playing on the tv across the room… they are discussing ideas for Moms! (Don’t forget - Mother’s Day is NEXT WEEKEND!)

Incase you are driving yourself crazy trying to think of something nice and sweet and lovely for your terrific momma… I am here to help! Head over to the 2 Cats & Chloe Shoppe and buy your mom a Pandora styled bracelet! Trust me! She will love it! AND she will think you spent a fortune on it! 😉

Right now there are only 5 bracelets left! Classy Black and Silver, Pretty in Light Pink, Fun Purple and Gold, Spunky yet Dressy Red and Black, and then my current fave the Beachy Purple and Teal! Don’t wait until last minute… get your booty to my etsy shoppe and buy your mother some jewels!

Let me know if you have any questions! xoxo

Hello dear Readers, Followers, and Friends! Thank you for your patience for the past… I don’t know month or two?! As I have been promising a fun 2 Cats & Chloe Shop for quite some time now. Well… can I get a drum roll please?! Because as of this morning!!! “The Shoppe” is finally up and running! Hip hip hooray!

I feel bad doing such an extreme self promotion here today - but hey… if you can’t rock self promotion on your own blog - then where else is it okay?! I actually sold several of my bracelets before I could even get them up in The Shoppe - so as of today you have 5 options to pick from.

Black & Silver! I love this one!

Simple and Pink!

Purple and Gold! Let’s go JMU!

Black and Red! For my Keller Williams Agents!

Purple and Teal. I adore this one, so if it doesn’t sell… that’s okay! 😉

Today only! Since it is the grand opening of “The Shoppe” I am offering a 10% discount! Head on over to The Shoppe and use the coupon code: APRIL4GRANDOPENING to snag one of these bracelets at 10% off!

Questions? Comments? Eeeee!! I am so excited! Thanks for stopping by today! Come back tomorrow to hear see how I took down the caterpillar plague in my back yard. Hint - it involved a water gun that shot 40 feet, a pink bandana and rain boots. See ya then!
