The Vintage Vestibule Family would like to wish all our customers a Happy New Year. Without your loyalty and support, we couldn't have had such an exciting 2009.
We had our first open house in May, 2009. We would like to thank you, our customers, for supporting our new business. We were delighted to have so many of you show your support and excitement by participating in our Open Houses through out the year. We will continue to have regular Open House Weekends in 2010, and will be open every Thursday from 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. starting next week, February 4th.
We increased our sales by 70% over last year, and hope to continue the trend.
Our Top Selling Candles for 2009 were Baked Apple Pie, Cinnamon Bayberry, Balsam & Dried Apple, Cedar & Saffron, and Vintage Kitchen.
The Vintage Vestibule Team has been terrific! The 2009 results could not have been accomplished without the efforts of all members of The Vintage Vestibule Family. Some of you may be aware we did have to overcome a few obstacles.
Our mom had major surgery on September 30th, and has been out of commission ever since. Just so you know, she is the team member who always cleaned and labeled all the candles, hand-frayed every tie, and carefully wrapped the tie around each and every candle. We missed her greatly at the end of the year, and cannot wait until she is fully recovered. She'll be back real soon!!
There was another unfortunate episode that has touched The Vintage Vestibule Family at the end of 2009. Tommy Bollant, our brother-in-law, fell from a tree stand in November and broke his neck. He was hospitalized for a little over 2 months. Our sister's attention has been 100+% dedicated to the recovery of her husband. We have been very supportive, and have been very busy helping where ever and when ever she needs support. Many, many, thoughts and prayers have been going their way as they begin a new path in 2010.

Once again, we would like to thank all our customers for their support. As we go through our changes, we would like to acknowledge the changes that our sister (team mate) Annette is going through.
