Sunday Inspiration Board #2

This is Day 43 of Tattered Rose (the store) being closed due to COVID-19.

We may not be open to the public but we are still selling through Instagram, Facebook and this blog....trying to keep bringing beauty into our lives.

We miss our customers.............♥

What Day is It?

The days seem to be melting into one another for many of us who are spending our time at home day after day instead of having the structure of work. This is where those days of the week panties they used to have would come in handy.

We are trying to keep Tattered Rose alive via Facebook, Instagram, this blog and our newsletter...to let our customers know that even though our doors are closed, we are still here and available for you to make purchases if you are able. 

We also want you to know that our customers (and everyone, really) are in our hearts and prayers to remain safe and healthy, and staying home as much as possible.

We have a few ways to keep in touch. You may contact us if you see something you like on any of our social media venues and offer shipping, curbside or personal delivery. You will have to prepay for goods so that if you choose curbside pickup (outside our store) you do not have to come inside. Shipping via Canada Post and/or personal delivery will be free on any purchase of $35 or more.

Personal delivery is done by the owner of Tattered Rose....we drive to your home and safely deliver your item free if it is $35 or more.

We are asking for your help to keep tattered Rose open long after this is all over. We're not ready to close up shop and give up on our beautiful dreams. We would also miss all of you too much!

Stay safe, everyone! ♥

UPDATE from Tattered Rose

During the shutdown of our brick and mortar store, we are trying really hard to stay the course until we can open again and things can get back to some sense of normalcy.

It seems inappropriate, somehow, to be talking about our shop or selling goods while the world is in utter chaos and shutdown....but this isn't about being insensitive to what is happening in the world due to the devastation of COVID-19.

It IS about the possibility that my store, my hopes, dreams and only source of income may not survive this storm. This is personal; it's not merely about business. I have always maintained that motto, way before the Corona virus......that Tattered Rose is about connecting with people, helping them, and making friends along the way. 

While I DO need to make a living, it is the personal aspect of my shop that means the most to me...always has, hopefully, always will. I miss my customers and friends more than I can say.

Please understand that if I post pictures of clothing and other items I have for sale at Tattered Rose, I am just doing my best to stay motivated and encouraged. I have do do something, or at least go down fighting until the Universe tells me it's time to let it go.

I truly hope it doesn't come to that because I would make a terrible employee after all these years of working for myself.

Sending prayers and caring thoughts to everyone in the world. We are in this together, even though some may be suffering more than others. Stay safe by staying home as much as possible.

See you on the other side if that's what is meant to be.

We're Closing....

Tattered Rose will be closed starting Thursday, March 19, 2020 for a little while.

We are following the "Stay at Home" advice from the government which is supposed to aid in mitigating the spread of the Corona virus.

In the meantime, please stay safe, informed and be careful but above all, enjoy this time with your family. Find new ways to live that keep you and your loved ones as safe as possible.

We hope this helps.

Love,

Carol
Tattered Rose

P.S. We are trying to find ways to keep the shop going via the Internet so please stay tuned for news regarding that.

We are available for phone orders and payments too.

Update on Tattered Rose

Tattered Rose will be open today from 11 am to 4 pm. We will continue to have measures in place to make it as safe as possible for any customers who choose to shop in our store.

-Hand sanitizer at the entrance
-Sanitized doors, counters, Interac machine, doorknobs, mirrors, etc.

Please keep in mind that Tattered Rose is not a place where crowds gather. We have at most 2 or 3 people in the store at any given time...and recently even less than that, so it is a much safer place to be than a highly public place where hundreds of people visit on a daily basis.

We do not feel that it is necessary to close the store at this time but if pressure from the outside builds, or if our customers are too fearful to come in, then we will have to make some tough choices. We sincerely hope it doesn't come to that.

Keeping you informed and safe is our number one priority.

Please try not to panic.....be cautious and careful, remain diligent about safety measures to reduce your risk but please don't stop living life as fully as possible during this difficult time.

We care about our customers. Let's get through this together.

Keeping Tattered Rose Safe for Our Customers

Starting Wednesday, March 18th we will be offering hand sanitizer at the door as you enter our shop. This will help keep the store safe for all of our customers.

We will also be cleaning (as often as necessary) any surfaces such as doors, counters, etc.

Tattered Rose is dedicated to keeping our shop as safe as possible. There are no large crowds in the store so please feel free to visit as usual, with a few precautions in place (such as hand sanitizers)

We must try not to panic in the wake of Covid-19
Be informed/aware, careful and cautious, but continue living your life as much as possible.

Of course, if you have any symptoms of the virus or have returned from a trip or been in contact with anyone who has travelled, please take the proper steps to be safe for yourself and for anyone who is around you.
