Facebook Policies

Facebook Sales Policies!

We've had a bit of confusion in regards to our facebook sales so we just wanted to repost our facebook policies to help. All items can be held for only 48 hours. If we do not receive payment within 48 hours (paypal, over the phone, or in store) then the item will go to the next customer.

Here's how our facebook sales work!

1. “Like” Kennedi’s Closet on Facebook.
2. We will post adorable outfits on our Facebook page that will include the price, sizes, and quantities available. The rest is up to you!

If I see an item I’m interested in buying, how do I bid on it?

If you like the item we have posted and want to purchase it, you must QUICKLY comment on the picture and include the following details:

• SOLD, Size, either your paypal email or the word “phone”, and personalization info (if applicable)
• If you live outside the state of Florida, you MUST include OOF (for Out of Florida) or you will be charged 7% Sales Tax.
• Only complete posts will be honored!

Note: If you put the word Phone, you have the next business day to call our retail store and pay for your order over the phone. 904-551-0214. We’re open Monday-Saturday 10-6 Eastern Time. Also, if you're local to our store and you want to come in and pay- we can still only hold it for 48 hours.

Examples:

Standard item: Sold, 6m, mommydearest@yahoo.com

Monogram Item: Sold, 9m, phone, “eKr” or Ella in hot pink.

Multiple Sizes: Sold, 3T and 12m, mommydearest@yahoo.com

Multiple Items: Sold, 3T and 5T, phone, only if I win both sizes.

Reminder that all invoices and phone orders must be paid within 48 hours or items will go to the following winner.

Bids are first come, first serve. Please don’t be upset if you don’t win! There are limited quantities per size and just remember that we’ll have other auctions with more cute things.

Tis the Season!

It's been way to long! Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving and now Merry Christmas! We hope everyone is doing well!

We've made a lot of changes since we blogged last!

Our biggest change is we have moved into our new location!

We're now located at: 4495 Roosevelt Blvd. Suite 310, Jacksonville, FL 32210. Our phone number is still the same- 904-551-0214. We're open Monday-Saturday 10-6 and closed on Sundays.

Hopefully, everyone has made it out to our new store! We have a lot of new items as well as the popular items from our previous store. Our newest addition is our new boys Rugged Butts Line.

This line is perfect for any little man who loves dressing up like his daddy! It comes with adorable denim and tan pants, Button Down shirts, pull over vest and handsome ties.

Along with Rugged Butts, we also are now carrying the popular Books to Bed! This collection has been a huge hit! It comes in a variety of popular children's books for both boys and girls.

We're adding new items to the store daily and hopefully we'll be able to keep the blog updated as frequent as possible!

I am having so much fun getting to know all of you sweet customers! It's so rewarding seeing new moms coming in when they first find out they're pregnant. They're so excited to be pregnant and just want to buy something special for their sweet little one- even if they have 9 months to go! All of us moms have been there! You almost want to buy something just to convince yourself that you really are pregnant! Then as the time goes on, we see you more and more frequently, and finally we get to meet your sweet baby! I just want to say thank you for including us!

On another side, I've got to meet many new designers and aspiring momtrepreneurs! It's so much fun getting to meet all of the new and up in coming designers and businesses! We can't wait to announce many of them in our Spring Collections.

Lastly, we're currently doing a Christmas Cuties Contest on our facebook page! For the past week our customers have been submitting photos of their little Christmas Cuties! Then, we placed them all in an album so that they can have their friends like our fan page and then like their photo. The deadline to vote is December 23rd at midnight, Eastern Standard Time. The photo with the most likes will then win a $100 gift card to our store.

Incase we don't blog before Christmas we hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! We hope you get to spend quality time with your friends and family and enjoy the true meaning of Christmas!

Now, I am currently going to wrap presents for my own Christmas Cutie! Thanks again for shopping with us and please let me know if you ever have a problem, complaint, suggestions... whatever! We also love hearing positive compliments as well!

Merry Christmas! xoxo

Spring has Sprung!

We're here... I promise! Things have been so hectic at the shop lately! Between working on orders, trying to create new designs, setting up photo shoots, traveling to market to find new items, keeping up with emails, phone calls, facebook, twitter, blog etc..... we're still here and our company is still thriving!

We've welcomed some new designers into our boutique family!

Our newest item to display is Padalily! We're so excited to be the only retailer in Jacksonville to carry this amazing mom friendly product! If you're not local feel free to browse our online store for all the adorable patterns Padalily has to offer!

Another new line that we're excited to share is our diaper bag collection from Kalencom.

Kalencom diaper bags are sophisticated baby bags that provide the modern mom all the practical needs of a nappy bag but also the style that benefits a modern diaper bag. Kalencom excels at creating designer diaper bags that are rich variety of colors and designs that have set them apart from any other designer diaper bag line. Many celebrities such as Angelina Jolie and Tori Spelling have been seen with these ultra stylish bags!

Along with the above items we also have several new clothing and shoe lines we'll be adding within the next few weeks.

With that being said.... we've noticed that several people have either came in the store or called to place an order and we were out of stock for that item. We know how frustrating it can be when you really want something and it's on backorder or sold out. Most of the time once we receive a new item- we sell out of it within a couple of days. That can be a problem! Trust me- I would much rather have this problem instead of having a ton of stuff and not being able to sell it- but it's still a problem. Our KC team has been talking and planning a variety of ways to have more inventory and keep more inventory while still selling a LOT of inventory. One solution we have came up with is beginning Monday, May 2 we will be launching our Facebook Store. This store will be completely separate from our retail store and our online store. We will simply do 4 to 5 listings Monday-Saturday at noon with items that are in stock ready for immediate shipping. We will also have the same items available in store for locals to come and pick up as well. These sales can either be payed through paypal or over the phone and will be shipped directly to you. We will also have shipments arriving 3 times a week in store which should keep things updated frequently.

We have been very blessed with a ton of amazing customers all throughout the US and facebook seems to be the best way to reach our fans all over. Along with having sales throughout the day- we will be hiring a couple more people to help assist with orders and in our shipping department.

We're so excited about our new expansion- it's just the beginning of many dreams and goals I have for this company! We can't share all of our plans just yet but I can't wait to open more stores in other cities and states!

Just like many of you- I'm a mom and wife first! I'm not always at the store but my team of girls are more than ready to help with any of your questions. If you ever have any problems please let me know! We can't possibly keep every customer happy but we will do our best to give you the best customer service and the highest quality items. If you ever have any problems or concerns you can either call the store and leave a message for me (Renee) or email us at kennediscloset@yahoo.com. You are the reason we are in business so please let me know if you need anything!

For all of you other Mompreneurs- Good Luck! I remember in the beginning trying to get my products out there and hoping people would love them just as much as I did! Stay positive and your company will do wonderful! With todays market being so saturated with the same things- try to think outside of the box! Overall, my biggest advice is to pray! I know it sounds very cliche but I promise you I've been praying for my store to do well since I was in high school and didn't even have a store yet! Every night when we are saying our prayers with our little girl we pray for my store, when I wake up I pray for large sales that day, throughout the day my mind will think about the store and I'll say a quick prayer for a great day. One of the girls at the store laughs at me because I'm always saying 'quick' prayers to the Lord to help me... and he does!

We hope everyone had a Happy Easter! We can't wait to see all of your Easter pictures! Have a great rest of the week!

Love, Renee

Happy January!

Happy January! We've just added a new poll to our site! We'd love for you to participate in helping us decide the next step of our expansion!

Our line for this Spring/Summer is going to be amazing!! We have a variety of smocked swimsuits, Swing tops and Rufflebutts, lots of flowers and bling as well as the cutest line yet of Squeaky Sandals! All of these items will be arriving throughout the month of February so be on the lookout!

Here's a few photos of some new items coming soon!

Merry Christmas from Kennedi's Closet!

It's that time of year again! Our store has been so incredibly busy with both in-store and online orders! Thank you for that!! Since we've opened our doors in mid-September our customers and orders have multiplied by the dozens! When I started my online store back in May of 2009 I never thought that I would be able to create a full time job out of it!

Since then, I have resigned from my 3rd grade teaching position and opened our first retail location. We've also created our first exclusive Clothing Line that will be launching in Spring 2011. Our clothing line can be found in children's boutiques throughout the U.S. along with a team of Clothing Reps that will be showcasing our Spring line in trunk shows throughout many Southern States!

Again, I just wanted to THANK YOU for your continued support of Kennedi's Closet! Below I've added a few pictures of Kennedi from Christmas! Unfortunately Joey had to work but she had a blast playing at the fire station!

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!

Much Love,

Renee
