Romantic Homes Magazine has an Annual Bedrooms and Baths edition that they put out every September. I received a phone call from the Senior Editor in June and she wanted to feature one of my Pillows. How exciting is that?
I have only been designing my Pillow Collection for three months and I am so lucky to be doing so well. Not only am I selling them retail myself, but I am also selling them wholesale and working with amazing retail Boutiques as well.
They Featured my Crown Pillow in their "Style File" section, and titled it Cottage Romance, Classic Shabby Cottage Decor for your Bed and Bath... BALLARD DESIGNS
I also reveived a phone call from Ballard Designs Accessory Buyer in June about having my Pillow Collection in their Fall 2010 catalog. I had initially declined because they wanted a LARGE quantity shipped to their warehouse by next summer, but the buyer is still interested, so I am re-thinking my decision... It's a big investment so we'll have to see what happens!
Oh my gosh girl... DO IT!! I love Ballard Designs... I think I'm going to need to buy one of your gorgeous pillows... they are adorable. Pretty soon you're going to have so much business you wont be able to sit down! How wonderful and I wish you tons of fun success. I'm sad that I just discovered you... I've been missing out!
