 What's new @ CTMH?

1. It's almost time for the new catalogs!! 

Now is a good time to look through the current core catalog and see if there is anything you want to order.  As noted in this blog post, there are 8 current CTMH colors retiring.

Some items may continue to be available after September 1st, online only, but there is no guarantee of that.  So take some time to look and see what you might want to order before it is too late.

2. OOPS . . . Missing Facebook Content 
Some of you may have noticed that Close To My Heart's Facebook pages are missing a lot of content from the past several months. This was caused by a new feature that Facebook began rolling out in February of this year. When CTMH recently turned off this feature, it made all content published since then disappear from their Facebook pages.

They are working with Facebook support and researching other means to restore the missing video content as soon as possible. In the meantime, CTMH will also begin uploading recordings from the last few months of events, to support those looking to access videos related to workshops and other creative projects we have held. We hope to have the situation resolved soon.

These next two items are just REMINDERS!
