First Contests




I thought it would be fun to kick off the new site with a couple of contests. They will both run until Febuary 12th, and then I will put all of the names into two hats and draw a winner for each. Sound good? Contest #1 will be for customers that have purchased one of my pieces in the past or recently, and contest #2 will be for everyone.


For contest one, please email me a short testimonial (a sentance or two) about the piece you purchased, and I'll enter your name into the draw for a pair of sterling and crystal earrings, which are pictured above, and a surprise piece:). The testimonials will be put on my testimonial page on ellejule.com.


For contest two, please sign my guestbook on ellejule.com and I will enter your name in the draw for the pair of crystal and sterling earrings in the bottom picture.


I have the winners!
The past customers set goes to Cheryl Q. of Canada,
the second set of earrings now belong to Kathryn from New Zealand!
Thanks for playing! Keep an eye out for more contests in the spring!

New site launched!

The new Elle Jule site is officially launched!
I will be adding new product over the next few weeks, so please keep checking back for news and new items.
My site was designed by Margaret Rose Designs http://www.mrosewebdesign.com and I am thrilled by this new system! It incorporates a guestbook, coupons, a news page with newsletter option and much more. I am so excited to have more ways to keep my customers updated and interactive with the site. As far as site design goes, I couldn't have found a better designer anywhere, Margaret is very accomodating and I couldn't beleive how determined she was to give me exactly what I was looking for.
Another good thing is that Margaret creates sites specifically for artists and crafters and her designs are very affordable. If you are looking for a site, I definitely recomend her services.

Celebration coupon


The launch of my new site is only a few days away, so I thought it would be a good time to post my celebration coupon. In celebration of our new site launch we will be offering all of our customers, new and returning, 20% off of their first order on the new site! Thanks to all who made my first year "officially in business" a go! Enjoy:)

Totally Indie Coupons


I am participating in the second round of totally indie coupons by Indie/web designer Lindsay Landis. This service is great! Each round includes coupons for 30 Indie designers from all over North America. How it works is- Each designer submits a coupon for their site, then Lindsay puts them all together on sheets and mails every designer 125 of these sheets to be dstributed at shows, with orders or mailed out locally. For $50 dollars American, the exposure is more than worth it. Check it out at http://www.totallyindiecoupons.com
