Breast Cancer Awareness

     As almost everyone knows from pink decorations, to pink streaks in hair, it's Breast Cancer Awareness month! So, Ballard Bunting Boutique decided to help and get the word out about it! We have made special Breast Cancer decorated Andrea Purses, Simply-A-Bags, and more! The whole month of October, if you come in to Ballard Bunting Boutique wearing pink, we will donate 20% of your purchase to the Susan G. Komen Foundation! It's that simple! Just wear something with pink on it. A purse, socks, a headband, a shirt, or whatever in your closet is pink! Have an amazing pink October and come down to Ballard Bunting Boutique!

Networking Meeting

This morning, at an un-mentionable hour to wake up in the summer,  my grandmother and I went to a Networking Meeting for businesses in our area. We were the first people at the adorable meeting place, Birdie's Cafe on Main Street, in our growing town of Westminster. We both got steaming cups of delicious, rich coffee. It really wakes you up! Eventually, about 30 people poured in the unique cafe, and it got very busy. All over, you could see smiles and bunches of happy people - and tons of tasty coffee drinks. When everyone settled down, we started the 1-2 minute speeches about our businesses. You say a little bit about your business, and what you want for it. Some people said they wanted more customers, or more people helping out in the community. A very kind lady brought in an amazing Raven's quilt to raffle off. Being a Raven's fan, and an even bigger fan of comfortable, warm blankets for Fall/Winter, I had to enter! The tickets were $2 each, or 3 for $5. (I went for the three for five deal!) Can't wait to see who gets it! You can read more about it on our Face Book page. I thought it was great that all of us got together and shared about our businesses to promote ourselves. I really think it's a good idea for new or small businesses to really "get out there". At the end of the meeting, we all got together for a big group shot. You can look for us in the Carroll County Times! Sometime soon!

I'm Back!

After almost a year, I, the President of Social Media for Ballard Bunting Boutique, am back! Shocking, right? Even though it's been an odd year, and I'll be back in school, I'll be blogging again. I'll try to post new things at least once every two weeks (probably Wednesdays or Thursdays). Since the last post, we've expanded a little! Not much you can see in our shop,  but we now have a storage room for all of our fabrics, ribbons, and more! It's pretty hard to think we had all that stuff in one tiny room though! Everyday, the boutique is getting bigger! This past year has been great for us! (All thanks to our customers!) Ballard Bunting Boutique has also introduced some new products! We have welcomed hand-made cards for all occasions by Pee Wee's Designs! You can see a sample of the unique cards on our Face Book page: Ballard Bunting Boutique. In late September, we will be participating again in the Midnight Madness on Main Street, here in Westminster, MD. We also invite you to com down and see our shop, and like our Face Book page mentioned previously. If you would like to take a look at our products without coming in, you can go to our website: BallardBunting.com. Thank-you to all our customers- we really couldn't do it without you all!
