🗳 WE NEED YOUR HELP 🗳
Yesterday we were supposed to announce 2023’s Most Creative New theme and we are stuck with a multi-TIE! 💁🏻♀️
We added a vote to our story and STILL landed with the same votes for every theme! I asked my 6 year old to vote and he said ‘... make them all...’ Stephanie also came in with a tie answer. They are both fired 😆
We’re giving this one last day to figure out and then making a selection.
WHAT DO YOU THINK SHOULD BE 2023 MOST CREATIVE NEW THEME?!?!
Friends, it’s a New Year 🎉
I know it’s business protocol to say how amazing the year was and bounce into celebration, but the truth is not every year is great.
Sometimes a year is hard. I’m learning thats ok. It’s ok to not pretend like everything and everyday is wonderful and it’s ok be authentic and just be human. We are so much more then a single emotion.
I learned this year it’s ok be optimistic and vulnerable at the same time, and I found that advice helpful. I faced loss and grief and lots of unexpected sadness in 2022. Trying to get through a painful year is hard enough, let alone celebrate it.
In the midst of those moments I made new friends, saw business successes and reconnected with family. I’m ready to take some of the good from last year and welcome 2023.
I hope whatever happiness means to you, be it healing, closure, or abundance of joy, you achieve it. Cheers to everyone 💛
Love, Deirdre
🥶❄️ FROZEN GROUND WARNING ❄️🥶
• What does winter freeze mean for your upcoming reservation?
👉 different factors about your yard and the elements will dictate what we can or can’t do.
What we CAN do:
* if your yard is south facing with a fair amount of unobstructed sun, we can safely assume we’ll have no issues. (barring extreme low temps, below 20*).
* we can offer to install your display a day early during warmer hours, at no charge, when the ground is most workable.
* if your yard has at least 2-3 inches of snow we can use the snow as a safe foundation.
What we CAN’T do:
* if your yard is north facing with little to no sun exposure, or contains a lot of tree root, rock and/or sod, we’ll ask you to do a ‘ground check’ the day before, to make sure the ground can be pierced 3 inches.
* If you find your yard is frozen solid the day before, and we do not drive out, we will fully refund your reservation.
👉 winter installations always take longer so we allow a minimum of 60 minutes for each customer. Complimentary day before installations will help ensure your special person has their display the entire day.

❄️ Hello Wethersfield ❄️
I stepped out into 6 inches of snow and 1* weather with a single objective this morning: to make a 5 year old’s day.
Knowing someone is smiling at the other end of my efforts can’t be beat. (I mean, I can imagine lounging at a tropical all inclusive right now 💭🏝☀️💭. I reaaaally can.)
But, while I was flipping around in the snow I thought about what it takes to be a yard carder and how Wethersfield Yard Cards llc has come SO FAR!
Hands down, much of my growth is due to the relationships I’ve made with these other CT yard carders. We all met a little over a year ago and have stayed connected through insightful conversations, productive meetings and encouragement to keep doing good work. We ditched the competition mentality and threw ourselves into a team effort who all share very similar values. We all give back and we all give our best, for all of YOU.
With the support of these women I’ve gotten closer to my local communities and my small business goals. Just like me, each have held fundraisers to support the ongoing needs of their hometowns and make positive impacts around them, where it truly matters most. I can’t say enough about the intentions and integrity of each of them.
Check them out! If you or someone you know needs a yard card in their area, give them a try! You’ll love them ~ I promise.
