UPDATE - I forgot to give a cut-off date. Winner will be chosen Saturday 7/8, so giveaway will end Friday night (7/7) at midnight CST.

As Olive Manna has continued to grow this year my blog has taken a back seat. I’m also very cautious about blogging business stuff because I don’t want to be one of those blogs that makes you feel like an extension of the store, you know, like the only reason they set up a blog at all was to get you to buy more stuff. That’s not me.

HOWEVER… I’ve had quite a few people come forward saying they didn’t know about a product and then it was sold out before they could get it. I always tell them to sign up for my newsletter because I’ve preferred to do this via email and keep my blog sales-free.

But I recognize that there are people who prefer not to clutter their inbox, or who don’t know about the newsletter. So I’d like to know a couple of things: 1) would you like me to blog more often, and 2) would it not be too intrusive to blog a little bit about new products?

Take this quick poll and if you leave your name and email I’ll choose one person to win one of these…

…filled with these…

Now, here’s a sample of something new I’m working on aquiring for the shop…

A full line of reproduction vintage desk accessories. A few other items are not pictured so maybe I’ll blog those later—if you’ll let me. ;)
