POPPY & PEONIES TREASURE HUNT - Post 7

Handbags are full of pursonality. Get it? A pair of jeans is a pair of jeans, but a handbag is clearly a reflection of your own personality. Bags are often the biggest statement-makers of an outfit, and having a good one is something people notice.

Head to the Vacation Shop tab on our website. What's the least likely style you would take to the Dominican Republic? But you could......

Up a size, down a size, eating your feelings, training for a marathon, getting pregnant, having the baby, whatever - your handbag is your handbag no matter how much water you're retaining or how long since you've had a carb.

Can you name one unique feature that many of our styles have? There is no wrong answer.

POPPY & PEONIES TREASURE HUNT - Post 3

One of the reasons that handbags are one of our favorite treats to give ourselves is that they don't require us to cook! Unlike dinner every night, this indulgence does not make extra work for us.

POPPY & PEONIES - THANK YOU

Poppy & Peonies still delivers the Functional and Affordable Fashion you've grown to love. We have changed from in-home Socials to online marketing, with your continued love of the brand. If you've noticed Natalie on Instagram, she is out and about and seeing lots of her designs 'in the wild'!

Shown below is the very first Poppy handbag I purchased, and one of the reasons I joined Poppy & Peonies.

This fall I decided to get back into doing Vendor Events, even though this is an online business. I am promoting my 10% discount and women are constantly telling me that they have several of our handbags. Now they are excited to learn that they can save 10% with my Affiliate Link.

Thank you for your continued support of our Journey.

POPPY & PEONIES - As seen on DRAGONS' DEN March 7, 2019

One of the highlights of my Journey with Poppy & Peonies was Natalie appearing on Dragons' Den. We all held Viewing Parties and were given the featured Everyday Crossbody as a draw prize. I invited friends and family over to watch Natalie make her pitch to the Dragons!

I will post the link to the show below in the comments. Facebook keeps deleting my post when I try to add it here.

Fun fact - I actually earned TOP SALES for March, the month that she appeared on Dragons' Den.

POPPY & PEONIES - STOP THE PRESSES!

We have adorned the front covers of some very notable magazines over the years, and this is how I started.

My cousin sent me an ad she found in the July 2017 Canadian Living talking about Poppy & Peonies. I was looking for something new to sell, since Silpada had closed it's operations and I was finding that importing sterling silver from Africa was proving to be more of a challenge than I wanted.

Within a day I had sent them an email, joined July 11, 2017 and here I am 6 years later and still loving it!

Crossbody fans don't need to carry a million products - To you, a bag should only carry the essentials. You need your phone, wallet, keys and very little else when you head out the door. I always make room for lipstick too! You won't be weighted down, but you will still make an impression when you're on the move.
