Click on above link to be taken to the store!
Well, it's been a chaotic first day! Thank you to all who purchased from the store! The bird seed skirts in Cranberry Fizz and Creamsicle Monday are now sold out in sizes 2T-4T and the Cranberry Shirt is now sold out in 2T-3T. I will be restocking items in the upcoming weeks and leaving updates in the blog on inventory. If you desperately want an item that isn't in stock please send me an email and I will see what I can do.
To celebrate the first day success I wanted to offer a $56.00 gift card giveaway! This should cover one outfit plus shipping! Your choice!
And if the winning blog also includes a link to the store in the post I will include a pair of knee high socks in your choice of color. Just copy and paste this link: GROSGRAINSTORE.COM somewhere in the post.
If anyone encountered any problems with the site please send me an email! Even if you just have a suggestion, I'd like to make the site as user-friendly as I can.
I thought to give everyone a better idea of what size might be best for you child I included a chart below and added the waist measurements in the description on the site under each separate description.
Size Height Weight Waist Inseam
| 1T | 29-33 | 22-30 | 19 1/2 | 11 |
| 2T | 33-36 | 30-32 | 20 1/4 | 13 |
| 3/3T | 36-39 | 32-35 | 20 3/4 | 14 1/4 |
| 4/4T | 39-42 | 35-41 | 21 1/4 | 16 |
| 5/5T | 42-45 | 41-46 | 22 | 17 3/4 |
| 6 | 45-48 | 46-51 | 22 1/2 | 19 1/2 |
| 7 | 48-51 | 51-57 | 23 1/4 | 21 1/4 |
The measurements for the skirts are as follows:
Size 1 16"w 8"l waistband expands to 26"
Size 2-4 18"w 11.5"l waistband expands to 28"
Size 5-7 20"w 13.5"l waistband expands to 30"
Last day for posts is Wednesday 11/12/08. Winner will be announced Friday morning!
As usual, if you would like a chance to win this gift card just link back to this post. If you have any questions see the "questions and answers" link to the right. If you use blogger just use the "create a link" link at the bottom of this post. If you don't use blogger, that's fine too. Just create a link on your page as you normally would and I will see it using Technorati.
