Hope you are all enjoying the holidays.  Come and see us!  We still have tons of fun and unique gifts for everyone on your list.  Bruce even ordered Machetes.  What guy doesn't want to find that from Santa!? 

Best Wishes,

Ladies (and Gentlemen...I know some of you open my email) let the men in your life know we care.  We want to make this holiday shopping experience fun for everyone, including dudes.  This Friday from 5-8pm is Guys Night Out.  Milkins Jewelers, Abundant Living, Total Health Food and Glow Fish Studios will be trying our best to make shopping for you as enjoyable as possible.  If you have not made them a list, we will help point them in the right direction!  While they are shopping at Glow Fish Studios, Pat Hand from Discount Drinks will be setting up a tasting station.  There will be 3 different bourbons to sample, including the latest Jack Daniels single barrel select, as well as Herradura Tequila.  If you come in, remind me not to do too many samples!  I am a tequila fan and I don't need Bruce posting another video of me dancing!  Sales for this event will be 75% off items in our sale area, 40% off clothing, and 40% off cards.  Of course this night is not just for the gentlemen.  We would love to see you all!

We had a great Black Friday and Small Business Saturday.  It was touching to see the community come and support the local businesses.  We raised over $200 for the Salvation Army with many of the customers specifically coming in for the fundraiser. There were people with arm loads of bags from lots of different stores on Saturday. If it weren't for you shopping we wouldn't exists!  It is a joy to be part of a downtown where shop owners and the community support one another.  

December 1st will start the 12 Days of Christmas.  We will be sending an email a day.  Bare with me.  I normally can't manage to get one out a month!  There will be many amazing savings.  If there are things you would like on sale, please let me know, I will do my best.

Have a wonderful Hump Day!
Love,
Vanessa

Dama in the D4 is this Saturday!!!  The wonderful Masako from Japan did all of our artwork this year.  I have just finished burning the screens to make t-shirts.  Super excited for everyone to come.  It is such an amazing group of people.  It is a creative bunch, not just talented.  The tricks that will take place this weekend will blow your mind.  The love and support these guys have for each other is what always gets me.  It is a community, a solid group of kendama nerds who love coming together.  It is hard not to catch the bug when you are in their presence.  It will be at the DCA on Chestnut and will run from noon till 8 but possibly later.  If you thought kendama was dead, think again.  Wyandotte+Kendama=Love! 

We made an amazing list in the Detroit Metro Times.  A customer called to let us know!  This really is huge for us and our facebook views only confirm.  Usually we get 1000+ hits on a great post, but this post had over 6,600 views!  WOW! Thank you for all the love.

We had fun doing our raffle with the ENO hammock!  Lots of new customers and we were able to tell them all about the other amazing stores in Wyandotte.  It is so nice to see this city GROWING!!!  Plus I am lucky to have new and amazing neighbors.  Check out Robin from Robin's Loft.  Super cool and sweet.  A great addition to Downtown.

We've enjoyed giving out samples to our unexpecting customers.  Come in and ask for your free sample.  Then buy a bag to take to work.  Your employees and colleagues will thank you! 

This Saturday is our 4th Shop Second Saturday!!!  We are gearing it towards love and who doesn't LOVE wine and chocolate! We also will be having some amazing sales.  Jewelry will be 25% off and all clothing- shirts, pants, coats, ponchos, will all be 50% off.  Sorry this does not include accessories such as socks.  We also brought in a TON of great Ritter Chocolate and some other tasty treats for you to sample.  There will be other specials and goodies at many downtown Wyandotte shops so please check out Facebook and see where else you might want to go!
