Newsletter News

Have you noticed? As I promised last month, my newsletter is now coming to you in a brand new format. Hopefully you've received your first two editions and found them informative and easy to read. You will always find at least one photo to inspire you, news about products, events, and promotions, and a special box containing current specials and free monthly gifts.

As with any upgrade, this one also brings a few changes with it. One is that your Internet provider might be marking the newsletter as Spam and not delivering it to your inbox. If you haven't received the last couple of issues, you might want to check your Spam or Junk Mail folder, then mark the newsletter as "Not Spam" to make sure you get it promptly in the future.

Another change is that I will no longer be posting the entire newsletter here. Instead you'll find a link to the most current issue in the side bar. You will also find a link where you can subscribe to my newsletter and  have it delivered directly to your inbox. Of course, once you subscribe to my newsletter, you will also have the option to unsubscribe. One thing that remains the same is that I will never share your personal contact information with a third party.

I've made these changes with the aim of improving the service I provide to you, my valued clients. I hope you will contact me with your feedback on the new newsletter format and suggestions for what you'd like to see in future issues.

Some Quick Updates: Summer Savings For You and a Summer Getaway for Me!

This is my favorite kind of update to share with you: UL IS ON SALE!! Starting today, you will save 15% on all orders of $40 or more. This applies to everything in our gorgeous new catalog, from the smallest embellishment to the largest Grande Format expression. Choose anything from the very first accessory we ever introduced to the brand new ones just released last month. Stock up on every color paint, get some Mistick, Chalk Wall pens in every color. Whatever you choose, your $40 order will be 15% off. 
You can order online on my website or contact me to place your orders. Better yet, collect some orders from friends or organize a live or online party and save even more by earning FREE hostess benefits! This is a limited time offer so don't wait to take advantage of the great savings.

Many thanks to Bruce Tuten for this gorgeous photo of an Oahu sunset.

While you're browsing my website and making your choices, I'll be taking a long awaited trip to Honolulu for a family visit, lots of fun and hopefully some relaxation. My plan is to fill my schedule with long stretches of beach time, only to be interrupted for a lovely umbrella drink and the occasional nap. However, I may be able to tear myself away from this gruelling routine to talk to any new Hawaiian friends about Uppercase Living. Uppercase Living is also great for all those wonderful military families stationed in Hawaii. You can finally decorate your walls without painting or damage, and yes, we do ship to APO/FPO addresses, even overseas. If you would like to discuss joining UL or would like to organize a very casual party, please let me know as soon as possible. Not only do I need to make sure to get you on my calendar, I'd also like to pack any supplies I might need. I would LOVE to add some new Hawaiian members to my team...so I can schedule some future business trips, of course.

Enjoy the sale and Aloha! 

Making Your Life A Little Easier

As you're probably aware, I am here to serve you, my loyal readers. Not only do I want you to find inspiration and ideas here, but I want you to enjoy the experience. But if you're too busy to come visit me, you can now subscribe to Please Use Your Words via email. Just follow the link in the sidebar and you're good to go. You'll never miss a post, a sale announcement or the latest Uppercase Living photos and ideas. And just like that, there's one less thing you need to remember to do each day.

Great New Feature on my Website

You've no doubt seen some of the great photos in the Uppercase Living Catalog & Idea Book or throughout my web site and wondered how to create a similar look. Now, UL has taken all of the guesswork out of project planning by providing recipes for some of our most popular projects.


By going to the Products tab of my website and clicking on Recipes you will find several projects to choose from. Each project includes a complete materials list, including non-Uppercase Living items, and step-by-step instructions. You can even add all of the UL items to your shopping cart at once without having to search through the site for each one.

Check out some of these great projects. You just might find the perfect gift or decor item.

Don't Say I Didn't Warn You

It's dawned on me that with so many different specials and promotions going on with UL right now, not to mention the busy fall shopping time, it might get confusing to keep all the dates and deadlines straight. Here, for your reference, is the definitive (until I change something) time line for the next couple of months.

Nov. 10 - Last day to order projects to work on at my Dec. 4 Project Night.
Nov. 15 - Last day to order our Gingerbread House kit.
Nov. 27 - Hmmm...the day after Thanksgiving. Maybe I'll have a Black Friday special if enough people tell me they'd like one.
Nov. 30 - Last day to get DOUBLE PRODUCT CREDITS when you buy a $99 starter kit. The credits make the cost to join Uppercase Living only $49. Start saving on your own Uppercase Living purchases and make some extra money selling our great products to friends and family.
Nov. 30 - Last day for hostesses to earn 50% more in hostess dollars with $400+ parties.
Dec. 4 - My annual Project Night. A fun and relaxing time to socialize and work on holiday projects. .
Dec. 7 - Last day to order for guaranteed delivery by December 24th. Last day to order from Holiday Catalog. Last day to order expressions in Shimmer Vinyl colors.

Hopefully this will help you plan and relieve any last minute stress. As always, I'm available to help you with gift ideas, project planning, party dates or more information on joining Uppercase Living yourself.

Oops!
