About Us...
ATTENTION: I JUST FOUND OUT OUR FAX MACHINE HAS BEEN DOWN FOR 3 WEEKS. IF YOU HAVE TRIED TO SEND A FAXED ORDER, PLEASE RE-SEND TO 662-662-269-2260. I AM SORRY IF THIS HAS CAUSED ANY DELAY WITH YOUR ORDER. (and i'm sure it has) --- If you will write on that order and let us know you had to re-send, we will put a FREE PRODUCT in your package --- thanks so much --- Connie
How many ways can a person be humbled? Today, in our local Business Journal (not available on line yet), the paper did an article on our company. Dennis and Thomas did a wonderful job with our story - I can't thank them enough.
We are amazed at the success of the recent Mississippi Market. Thank you to all of our new and existing stores for trusting us with your business. Our top selling textiles were the sling bag and Bible/Book covers. These are selling great according to the re-orders that are already coming in!
We have now added 2 seamstresses to our pool of independant workers and although we have 3 welders we can count on at any time, we depend totally on D. Gregory from Bruce, MS who is our #1 go-to-guy when it comes to making metal stick together!
We have created our first ever "catalog on CD" -- if your company is interested in one, type it in the "contact us" area and don't forget to add your tax id information --- we only send pricing to confirmed retailers. Be on the lookout for a shopping cart on our website for approved retail stores! It's on our list of things to do.
Now, on with the standard company information:
All of our crosses are hand made from Nails purchased in Tupelo, MS. Yea, we know, Elvis Presley was born in our terrific town, and Elvis fan clubs flock to Tupelo like crazy to feel the spirit of the King of Rock and Roll -- Elvis Presley fans love our crosses and we ship world-wide!
We buy our nails and wire from local hardware stores, our glass beads are purchased locally and the bead-work is done by a variety of Mississippi Folks who just love to work. When you buy our crosses, you are doing a great thing for our state and helping fulfill a lot of dreams! We all say thank you - and since I'm a single mom with two college kids, I'd like to personally say thanks for helping all of our dreams come true.
Our crosses are perfect for weddings, bridesmaids, graduates, pastors, mother's day, teachers, baby shower, secret pals - etc.
Thanks for your business - we appreciate you. Each cross is unique - no two are alike - they are made with a kaleidoscope of colors - just like us! We were born originals, why die a copy?
"My Elegant Clutter" is dedicated to helping people support themselves. We use many groups of people to help us bead our unique crosses:
- College Students - we love helping students work their way through school. At My Elegant Clutter, we know how difficult it is to juggle school, sports and jobs. Thank you to all of our great college bound cross beaders!
- Mentally and Physically Challenged folks - wanna see a very impressive cross? Pick up one beaded from our autistic, blind or challenged beaders. You'll be pleasantly surprised at the creative workmanship - we love the work they provide and are happy that they have chosen to work with us - we love you!
- Single parents - I have been a single mom for more than 17 years and I realize the financial struggles that come along with that journey. I admire the single parents that work for me and understand their passion for being home with their children. Again, this business has been a blessing for me and my family.
- Blue Collar workers - We have many. they range from factory workers to school teachers to football players. Thank you to everyone who helps support My Elegant Clutter. We appreciate you so much.
- Retirees - There's a special place for our working class folks who have made it to retirement. We can't thank you enough for all that you do to support us. Your insight and wisdom are invaluable to us.
As the owner of My Elegant Clutter, I am humbled at the number of people who share their testimonies with us. We are grateful for their willingness to share and support each persons desire to accept their testimony and embrace life.
When you purchase from My Elegant Clutter, you are supporting many dreams and allowing people who may not otherwise have the opportunity to support themselves. From all of us, "thank you" and may God richly bless you and your business.
For I know the plans I have for you says the Lord - Jeremiah 29:11
God never gives you a dream without giving you all the talents and skills you need to fulfill that dream.. Simply "leap" and the net will appear.
