[Ansteorra] Fwd: Ideas for new veils at Dharma?

[Lisa May]

If you're not interested in the subject of silk veils, you should skip this
email.

This is not something I'd ever do with a personal email, but I'm forwarding
a commercial email I received from Dharma Trading Co. soliciting my opinion
on what types of veils I would like to see them carry.  If you've never
ordered from Dharma, I urge you to go to their website and take a look (they
are at www.dharmatrading.com).  They carry hemmed silk veils and silk
fabrics (not to mention linen and cotton) at ridiculously low prices, and
they ship promptly.  I've had very good experiences with them.

At any rate, since the Ansteorra email list will undoubtedly have quite a
number of people interested in veils, I thought some of you might like to
put your two cents in and let this company know what you'd like to see on
their product list.  As they say below, they aren't making any promises, but
I imagine they'll take feedback seriously if they get a bunch of emails from
interested parties.

BTW, I have no affiliation with Dharma, other than being a satisfied
customer.

Greetings from the Dharma Trading Co. family!

Sometime in the past year you, or (eyes squinted in suspicion) someone else
that uses this e-mail address, purchased a Habotai Veil from us. The reason
we are contacting you is that we are interested in what you thought about
the veil, or veils. Specifically, is there anything you would have changed
about it? Or would you like more to choose from?
Currently, we stock the following sizes and shapes:

#HV 3584 - 5mm Habotai, 35" x 84"
#HV 35108 - 5mm Habotai, 35" x 108"
#HV 45108 - 5mm Habotai, 45" x 108"
#HV 55108 - 5mm Habotai, 55" x 108"
#HV 45108SC - 8mm Habotai, 45" x 108" Semi-circle shape

Should we carry longer veils? How long?

Narrower veils? Wider veils?

Should we carry lighter-weight veils? Silk gauze veils? (silk gauze is very
light and see-through)

Should we carry heavier-weight veils? Something more satiny and luxurious?
(won't 'float' as well, perhaps)

What about fringed veils? (Tassles on the short side)

Should we carry other shapes? What shapes? (bat-wings!)



If you don't mind shooting us a reply to this message and telling us all
about your veil 'wish-list', we would very much appreciate it. I can't
promise we will fulfill your every wish, but if you tell us what you want,
you might just get it.

Thank you very much,

Dharma Trading Co.

We'd love to see photos of your projects! If you had a tie dye party or a
wedding with hand painted clothing or did something cool at camp with our
products, send a photo to feedback at dharmatrading.com and we might even add
it to our website.

The last thing we want to do is bug you. It's our intention to send this
email only to those of our customers who have "opted in". If we've made a
mistake, or if you don't want to receive this newsletter, send an email to
unsubscribe at dharmatrading.com.

If our emails are going to your junk folder then our order confirmations
probably are as well. You might add service at dharmatrading.com to your
address book to ensure that you can receive all future newsletters and
confirmations in your Inbox.
