Benefit tomorrow for Jayson!

So Kelly and I have a benefit tomorrow to raise money for a little boy named Jayson who is ill. He needs a surgery that the family cannot afford. We are going to be at the event with one of our most extravegent, fun, candy tables yet. We have some of the coolest things! We have sour keys, giant gummie strawberries, sour strips, cotton candy, chocolate covered marshmellows, pretzels with craazy decorations, CAKE POPS ( these are so fun!) the choices are almost endless! We are very excited and hope this event is a great success!

If anyone would like to attend here are some details:

"The tickets are 10.00 and you can bring anyone you want just let me know and I will get you tickets. It is for a good cause and it should be a good time. DJ Fingaz with guest DJ's performing, door prize, raffles. It is at the French Club at 647 Franklin Blvd in Cambridge. Again anyone is welcome to come!"

 If you would like tickets please email us at sugarbuffets@gmail.com!

Sometimes the days are so tiresome and seem like they are never ending. With the two of us working a full time job plus planning these events and squeezing time in to prepare everything, it is hard and success seems so far off... BUT we are so glad to be able to help at a benefit ,like tomorrow, for Jayson. As busy and stressful as life gets we need to be thankful that we are healthy and have an opportunity like this to help someone who needs it!
 


Thank you all for your continued support,

Courtney and Kelly

United Way Event!

Hello!

This past Monday Kelly and I put on an event at our work for United Way! There were a fair number of people that came by the table and we raised just over $100 for United Way! This was a fund day and great wy to raise money for United Way and get Sugar's name out there!

We set up the table in a Valentines Day theme like we previously showed an exaple of on the blog here. Here's a picture of Kelly and I!

We had a jelly bean guess and to our surprise there was 1,062 jelly beans in the jar! Crazy! We announced our winner at work yesterday and she won the gift basket that we put together for the draw!

We hope everyone that came to visit us on Monday enjoyed the candy and the table! We hope you will continue to spread the word about Sugar.
**Remember if we book any events because of your refferal you will get 10% of our sale!

Thank you!

Pictures!

Hi everyone! 

So last night Kelly and I did up a mock table for what we are going to be doing for United Way. This is just an example of some of our work so we are excited to be able to finally show you what we are capable of. Since we are getting close to Valentines day we kept with that theme. 
Enjoy the pictures and there will be more coming when we offically have the table set up on January 17th!! 













Thank you again for all your support. It means a lot to us!!

Thank you

Sugar.

Hi Again!!!

Ok so change of plans. We really feel that we should be focusing on only our Candy Buffet service at this point.
We have received a lot of interest around it and requests for the service. We think this would be a good starting point for us to break into wedding/event decorating.

We decided the name for our candy buffet service is…

Sugar.
Sugar n' Spice and everything nice for your event

Next week we are looking at registering the name and getting a business number! Yay! This is all very exciting for us! We designed a business card today and can't wait to share with all of you!

We hope you like the new name! Oh and we started a twitter account! We have no idea how to use it yet but our name on twitter is sugarbuffets….So follow us and we’ll follow you!! :)

Thanks again for reading!

2011!!!

We hope everyone had a Happy Holiday and a Happy New Year!

Over the past couple of weeks we have been working to get our name out there…mainly by telling friends and family of what we are looking to do with our business and how we want to grow. We also do a lot of advertising with Kijiji.ca!

We had an opportunity come up to make party favors for a Christmas party! It was a really cute project and good for any Christmas event! We took pretzels and dipped them in different kinds of chocolate and did them up in cute packaging! It was a great addition to the party and everyone enjoyed being able to take something home! Check out the pics!





We also have an event coming up that we are preparing for. We are getting to do our candy buffet for the charity United Way!

We are really looking forward to it and can't wait to post pictures for everyone!

Thanks for reading! Any feedback would be great to hear! I am sure the feedback we get will help us and the business grow and change as new entrepeneurs!

Thanks!

Courtney and Kelly

The begining!

Welcome to our first ever blog for Something Old Something New!!!!!

Our names are Kelly  and Courtney . We currently work in a call center full time and find that most of the spare time we have between calls is spent thinking of a way to finally be our own boss! LOL We think we have finally come up with a way!

Over the months we have had tons of ideas for businesses, ranging from having a thrift shop to owning a restaurant. Anything and everything we have thought of it. We ended up deciding on Wedding Decorating.

We both have a love for creativity, and weddings open up a a wide range of options for us to be creative. We are looking to specialize in head tables, cake tables, back drops, center pieces, table overlays, chair covers, party favors, place cards, archways....anything you can think of we are open to!

One service we are going to offer which will set us apart from other decorators is the sweets table which clients will have the option of adding to any package!

The sweets table is filled with jars and glass containers filled with all different types of candy and chocolate! We decorate the table in ways that compliment the decor of the hall and looks very enticing to guests of all ages!

Here is an image as an example (not our actual work)


















 
Thank you for looking at our first blog! We will be updating over the next couple weeks of new projects, ideas, challenges, prices and where our business is headed! Please tell your friends and family about us!!

Thank you!

Courtney and Kelly
