Claire Burke Christmas Memories, Oh Christmas Tree

Claire Burke had a stunning array of great new products planned for this Fall and Winter 2007. I saw them at the July Gift show and they had lots of wicked cute new ceramics that were planned to be available in October.

All of this changed in late July when we learned the company had been shut down. It wasn’t until September that I was advised they had cancelled The Haunted Home and Pomegranate Plum. At that time they told us much of the new Christmas line was also subject to being cancelled. A few weeks later they confirmed we would NOT be getting the majority of the new items.

This week they told me we will be able to obtain Christmas Memories bag Potpourri with Refresher Oil. We have already received the Christmas Memories Potpourri in Fine Crystal Bowl.

The good news is that we will have plug-in warmer refills available in Oh Christmas Tree and Christmas Memories. The bad news is that we won’t have them until a week before Christmas. Warmer Refills are all manufactured in Portugal and there is a significant lead time and transit time involved.

The bad news is that we will not have Simmering Oils in Christmas Memories or Oh Christmas Tree. The Factory has cancelled production of these items for this year. Hopefully they’ll have them for Winter 2008 again.

We now have stock available of:

    * Christmas Memories, Oh Christmas Tree Vapourri
    * Christmas Memories, Oh Christmas Tree Shimmer Candles (NEW)
    * Oh Christmas Tree Pomanders
    * Christmas Memories, Oh Christmas Tree Votives, Tealights
    * Christmas Memories Snowflake Tealight Holders & Jewel Tone Glass tealight holders.

These items should all be uploaded to the website within a week or less. I am now training Kayce, our new lady, to do uploads so Pamela will have some help.

Here’s a link to our Claire Burke page if you want to shop early while selection and inventory is good.

Claire Burke Availability

Well it’s been a long haul this summer with all the Claire Burke availability issues. The past 3-4 months have been incredibly challenging for us at Fresh Bet because we really love this product line and we enjoy being able to ship your orders promptly.

On Monday 10/15/07, we received a truckload shipment of Claire Burke - YAY!! As one of their top retailers in the USA in their “Gift Store Division”, we were indeed lucky to receive our shipment way ahead of other smaller retailers who still have not received inventory. As of this writing, we have managed to ship all of our backorders to our customers with the exception of these items which are not yet available:

    * Original, Wisteria Warmer Refills
    * Original, Sea, Apple Jack Reed Diffusers
    * Original, Apple Jack small Potpourri. Yes - we have the large deluxe potpourri in stock now!
    * Original, Apple Jack Linen sprays - these have been promised to us within the next 4 weeks.

If you didn’t know, Vitabath is owned by the same corporation who owns Claire Burke. Vitabath is manufactured in Canada and we expect to receive:

    * Vitabath Green, Pink/Plus Gallons in mid-December.
    * Vitabath Green, Pink/Plus 21 oz Gelee in mid-December.

Other than these items show above; we are pretty much back to normal with the rest of the Claire Burke and Vitabath lines. As always, if you have any concerns about your orders, please call us at 1-800-322-0525 or email us: Sales@Freshbet.com.

We will be including a free gift with the backorders for your patience. Thanks so much to everyone who has been hanging in there with us!
