Hello World!



Yesterday, we sent 11 international packages out to brides all over the world. It was the most in one day ever! We sent 2 to Australia, 2 to Ireland, 1 to Japan, 1 to Hong Kong, 2 to the UK, 2 to Canada, and 1 to Sweden.

In fact, almost 1/4 of all of our website visitors are from countries other than the US. We ship anywhere in the world for a flat $20 via priority mail. If there is ever a problem with receiving your package, we will work with you to fix it, guaranteed!

It's easy to order - when you put an item in your shopping cart, it will ask you your country, then it will give you shipping options available to you. We normally use priority mail, because it is by far the most affordable option, but if you're in a hurry and need trackable shipping, we can also use UPS or FedEx.

Ballerina bun wrap

So, we were contacted a month or so ago by a stylist for an upcoming show on NBC who wanted to borrow some hair jewelry for a scene with ballerinas. She chose a flora vine in gold and 2 breena combs with golden shadow stones for each ballerina:

This was the inspiration look:



But we decided that on camera, crystals would be sparklier than the pearls, so we went with the flora vine instead of the bloom, which is what's shown above. Then, we wanted just a little more for the sides of the bun, so we chose the breena combs with golden shadow crystals:



For the show, Kings, which is premiering in March, they used a comb on each side of the bun on each girl.

Now, why am I telling you all of this, aside from that it's really cool that they used our accessories? Well, we just got the samples back, and now we have 4 gold flora vines and 8 silver breena combs with golden shadow crystals in perfect condition - and there's a great story behind them! So, if you're interested in purchasing the samples for yourself or for your bridesmaids, contact me at mandy@tigerlillyjewelry.com, and I'll give you a discount code and instructions on how to buy them. Since they are samples, they'll be half off!! That's right - instead of $120 each, the breena combs are $60, and instead of $225 for the floras, they're only $112.50.

Speaking of samples - we have sold off a lot of them, but we still have quite a lot of samples here, including, surprisingly, lots of our most popular designs. I'm going to try to get a list up of what's left soon on the website!
