Designer Toolbox: Happy Holidays Darlings!

by Mo on December 17, 2009

Around the Site
Hi Darlings, we hope shoppers are making you joyous this holiday season! Apologies if you were affected by a minor blip this week on the site…just a wee bit of technical difficulties. If you were uploading images into your boutique on Tuesday, you may want to take a moment ad make sure they made it in succesfully.
We kicked off the month with a mini Darling shop at the SCOPE Art Show in Miami. Shoppers there and at other Darling events have won almost $1k in e-gift cards to spend at Smashing Darling. We hope they land in your Darling boutique soon!

how to: Help Your Shoppers W-I-N

Maybe you already know about the indie designer BLOG OFF happening over at WhatDesigners.com. But, have you told all of your fans about it? Spread the word today. If they win, they could use that Smashing Darling e-gift card to shop in your boutique! Bloggers writing about indie designers can comment and link their post for a chance to win up to $250 in e-gift card credit at Smashing Darling. Bloggers have all month, and five winners will be chosen. Click here for all the details!

More fun customer incentives coming soon in 2010!
Re-charge and Re:new

We hope you get a chance to take a break over the holidays and have some playtime. Maybe download the Smock Shop pattern, hideaway in your studio and make your own one-of-a-kind smock, read more about it here. Re-charge your inspiration!

What do you do with all your leftover textile bits and pieces? If you find yourself cleaning out shop in early 2010, help this organization help others. Re:new teaches refugee women knitting and sewing and relies on fabric donations. Click here to learn more.
