"The great art of giving consists in this: the gift should
cost very little and yet be greatly coveted, so that it may be
the more highly appreciated."

-Baltasar Gracian
Don't
know who Baltasar Gracian is? I didn't either but Wikipedia
(the ever flowing fountain of knowledge that it is) says he was
a Jesuit Priest and I remember my dad speaking highly of that
profession so I guess he couldn't have been all bad.
This
quote perfectly puts in to words the gift that all of you have
given to me and La Muse this last year. The smiles, the emails,
the referrals, the praise, the positive feedback, the
thoughtfulness, the hugs, the laughter, the friendship (and of
course the business!) and so much more. They are all greatly
coveted and more highly appreciated than you know. From our
hearts to yours, I and the La Muse team wish you a holiday
season filled with so much love, peace and laughter that you'll
have oodles of it left over to spread around all of 2008 and
beyond!

This
month we've added a new function to our website -
www.ShopLaMuse.com
can now offer exclusive discounts to our
preferred customers (aka 'you', the special people
that indulge me and allow these emails into your in-box!)
via discount codes used in your online shopping cart. This
will greatly help us in promoting our artists and it will
help you to save some money! To kick off our introduction
into this new phase of technology we are offering a 10%
savings in our entire online store (umm, except
gift cards which I'll tell you about next) through December
16, 2007. Coupon code:d1612 (write that down and put it in
a safe place). There's a pretty green coupon down below -
feel free to print it out and share it with a friend.

The
next new goodie we have propelling us into the information age
is the La Muse gift card! Yes, we may have been the last
store on the planet still using paper gift certificates (and
they were really pretty ones) but we have put on our big girl
panties and joined the world of barcodes and swiping. To honor
this occasion we are offering a 15% savings and free
shipping for all La Muse Gift Cards through December
16th.
