We were hoping to be open yesterday to pass out candy and see all the kiddos in their costumes, but as the past has proven to be habit, whenever we plan to do something, things happen to make it impossible to continue!
We were having some technical difficulties yesterday (Halloween) and in the process of dealing with those we wound up having to make a big mess in the store, and we just couldn’t let anyone see it that way!
We spent the rest of the day sorting through things, organizing, rearranging and cleaning up. We didn’t even manage to finish it all yesterday, in fact as I sit here at almost 1pm there is still a bit left to do… there goes my idea of opening at all TODAY, haha!
I promise things will be DONE by the end of today, and we will be open tomorrow, and it will look better than ever in here!
I guess it’s not all bad, I have been warning people that there was going to be a mess here soon as we got ready to do an overhaul on the heating system… and well, here it is! Heating system is scheduled for repair next weekend, hopefully that won’t be too disruptive.
For anyone that doesn’t already know, we will be having an Avon party here at Twice Loved Boutique on November 15th at 4pm. Free gifts for everyone who comes, as well as food and drink for guests, free samples and demonstration products for you to test out, and some great savings for anyone who purchases or places an order that day! You can call 207-722-3519 or go to http://youravon.com/jessicawellman for details and to RSVP. No invitations are necessary, so bring a friend (bringing a friend counts as a referral for the yet-to-be-announced Avon Customer Rewards program we will be announcing!). We are just asking for an RSVP by November 8th for anyone who plans on attending so that we can be sure to have enough Free Gifts for everyone!

We recently had a fairly large consignment account come to an end and after taking all of the leftover items off the sales floor we discovered we were a bit low on Girls clothes!
We have a bit in a range of sizes from 4 to 14 but nothing larger and not very many in the sizes we DO have!
We are looking for donations or consignment of any of these sizes (we have PLENTY of infant and toddler girls clothes on the racks and in storage, so we are not looking for the little sizes at this time).
If you are interested in donating or consigning clothing with us, please review our Consignment Guidelines (By Clicking Here or at the top of this page where it says Consignment), to be sure that you have what we are looking for.
If you are donating (instead of receiving compensation) please call ahead to let us know when you will be in so that we can make sure someone is available to take care of the donation. If you are wanting to open a Consignment Account you will need to print off the Consignment Contract and Intake Form (both can be found on our Consignment page above) complete both and then call to make an appointment to get your account set up!
Yes, I know this site has changed a lot since it first began nearly 2 years ago, blame that partly on my complete inability to settle on something, and partly on the ever changing business I have!
I started on selling on Ebay, bought this domain when I started selling on other auction sites, and then it became an informative website about my store, then an Online Store, and now a blog about my store! It’s great though, it really is, all of these changes, it just keeps getting better!
I can’t say too much, don’t want to jinx myself, but the store itself could potentially be undergoing some changes, big ones at that. I will announce the details of that, if and when they are confirmed. In the meantime we could use all the positive energy you can spare to help ensure things work out for us!
I have decided that for our Web Presence, we will be sticking to Blogging, and the social networks I mentioned in a previous post. I HATE dealing with the shipping of clothes, I really do. Trying to find a reasonable shipping rate that doesn’t seem completely outrageous to someone buying a small article of clothing, it’s just difficult and frustrating!
Our Etsy store will remain open, I can handle the shipping of just small items every now and then, but primarily our business will be found at our physical location in Brooks, Maine.
This store has come a LONG way since May 2008 when we officially opened our doors, and I am so pleased every day with how it is turning out. I have met some wonderful people through this store and I hope to continue to meet more! It has been a huge learning process and I couldn’t be happier with how any of it has turned out. I hope all of the changes in our future will continue to be positive ones, and that this store will continue to grow and be successful!
