🌺 A Loving Goodbye 🌺
With much consideration and lots of emotions, I’ve decided to close my sweetest little Sapphire 13 Tween boutique. It’s been a fun 3 years, but it’s time to come to an end.
When I started this business, I was hoping to make it easier for moms with daughters in the pre-teen age group. I have a daughter that fits that group, and I know how tough it is to find clothes that are appropriate, fun, and somewhat classy. I am sure I could have done much better in promoting the business, but it was just little ol me, while keeping a full time job, trying to do it solo to keep your costs low. Life is so expensive these days, and I get the struggle.
I have truly had some of the best supporters— many who became friends— many who didn’t have tweens, but shared my business constantly, in hopes that it would succeed. I have learned so much about retail and business and my heart goes out to all who own businesses, trying to make it work these days. It’s not easy, nor close to stress free.
Big thanks to for doing my social media for a year, when I couldn’t keep my head on straight. You are so smart and savvy and I am so appreciative.
Thank you tons to my for giving me a space to house my boutique for over a year. You are always true and encouraging and I love you the “mostest.” Bleu Blush will always be my second home and I want everyone to KEEP SHOPPING with her because she is so generous and the best hype girl ever.
I want to thank my amazing husband for always supporting and being patient with my endeavors. He really is the best and I am one grateful wife.
Stay tuned for store closing sales coming soon. (*Truth and transparency here… I’d love to sell remaining inventory at current price, which those who know me know that my mark up is nowhere near fair market value. I’ve always been good at giving tons of discounts, which could be part of my demise, as well. Once we get down to 50% off, you all are getting everything at cost. If I could break even, rather than go out having to sell everything at $5 a piece, I’d call that a win!)
Again, it’s been a fun 3 years. I’m so very thankful. Missing you already. ❤️
