Crochele needs your help!

I've just found out that I'll no longer be able to sell my children's line at Styledbaby Boutique. In August, the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act was passed by Congress. This act places very strict rules on any item being sold for children and requires that any of these items be tested for lead. As a small business, Styledbaby cannot pay for this to be done and as of Feb. 9th will no longer carry children's items - NONE. This is sad news for myself, Styledbaby, customers and basically any person buying items for children. This act could potentilly raise the prices of children's goods 50% because any business selling these things must have them tested for lead before they can be sold.

Please see the following blog and read it in it's entirety. It's really important to us all! Please also take a moment to follow the link within that blog and send a letter to our Congress asking that the Act be revised. Right now, it says that even a childs shirt has to be tested for lead...REALLY??? I am all for placing strict standards on anything that a child may come in contact with, to keep them safe! I have 2 children of my own but COME ON! Anyway, please help us all out! Go to the blog and I thank you in advance!
