Handcrafted Heather Elizabeth Designs St. Louis Cathedral night light

I am off from the outdoor art markets for the months of July and August.  I will be back out at the Bywater Art Market, Arts Market of New Orleans and the Harrison Avenue Marketplace in September.  I will also be adding other outdoor venues along the way, so please make to sure check back regularly! Another reminder to become a Heather Elizabeth Designs FAN on Facebook. I am also on Twitter now. So please follow my tweets here.

I  am working on some wonderful new items for all of you for Holiday 2009.  If you are in need of Heather Elizabeth gifts during  July and August, please visit the shop listing on my website.  Or you may purchase items online and your items will ship in a timely manner.

Lastly, I would also like to take this time to express my deepest thanks to the customers who have supported this native New Orleanian and her business since 2002!  It has been a tough road sometimes to own my own business, but customers like you have made it one of the most rewarding endeavors of my life.  It’s sounds corney, but it’s true.

Some very loyal customers have brought it to my attention that I have a couple of copycats out there. They say imitation is the best form of flattery, but I think it shows a lack of imagination and creativity.  I ask that you please continue to stay loyal to Heather Elizabeth Designs as you have done for all these years.  Your loyalty means that I may continue to create wonderful designs. Designs that are truly my own ideas which come from the deepest expression of love for my ancestral home town. I will leave you with these last thoughts:

If the tag doesn’t say Heather Elizabeth Designs, it’s not the real thing! So, please do not support those who have copied my original ideas and hard work.

Much New Orleans Love to all!

Heather Elizabeth
