Yup, you read that correctly. hardcandy house items are now officially available for purchase online! This means you no longer have to wait for an appearance at an event near you, and can see lots and lots more new items as soon as they become available. We're starting out with a Grand Opening Halloween Sale. It's a bit close to Hallow's to be just now buying things, we know, but that's why everything in the Halloween section has been discounted! You might even receive a free gift with purchase. ♥ It will take us some time to gradually get everything up in the shop, so make sure you check back frequently! Also, keep those eyes open for some late autumn items, winter items, and Christmas items coming soon! So... |

| 5|01|11 | ♥ Stupid Tornado ♥ As you may or may not have heard, this past week, on Wednesday, April 27th, many parts of the southeast were torn asunder by vicious and vehement tornadoes. Hundreds of lives were lost, countless people were injured and a great many homes and various other establishments were levelled to the ground. We are extremely thankful to report that we are safe, but our hearts and deepest condolences and sympathies go out to those who were far more adversely affected than we. Many areas are still without power, and the repair and recovery stage will be underway for quite some time. You can use keywords April's Fury to search online for more information and coverage on this catastrophe. |
