Have a Blessed & Merry Christmas to all of you!

Its been over a month that I have not posted something here--
Its been really busy with our the last minute orders from our valued clients--usually these companies plan a year ahead and place their orders 12 months prior to the season.
But with the slow economy, most companies try to weigh and check which they think would be viable for them.
Despite the hurdles, we are quite as busy as ever--
and we THANK you our valued clients & friends who always have trust in doing business with us.
To our artisans, we always think of you as our priority, and most of all we thank Him for giving us the blessings we have--
Have a Blessed and Merry Christmas to all of you!

Eco Friendly Market - GREEN WEDDINGS

It has been awhile that I had posted here.  We had been very lately for the wedding season and of course the Christmas orders are flowing in.  Our Facebook page  is up and running - find us on Facebook - GREEN WEDDINGS. 

I had featured there about our first dance after our wedding ceremony.
I can still vividly remember our "first dance" as a newly wed couple.  Since we had a garden reception and both love the Disney theme, our harpist played a lot of disney theme songs.
Here is what she had played---the theme from "Mulan"
