OMFG-I'm loosing my sh!t right now! I'm totally bawling...

I ordered these darling personalized honey jars for my baby shower online at  www.accenttheparty.com last month 9/09.  I ordered 27 of them and had them shipped to my mom's house.  Well, it's now 10/9 and they still haven't arrived. I tried to call them (their number is not in service!!!) so I email. They respond back by saying that there was a minimum order of 30 jars and they sent me an email about it and it probably went into my spam folder!!!

Why wouldn't they call me? Why would thier order form even LET me order below the minimum????

I'm so upset right now..I've been excited about these and now there is no time left to get them done...I'm seriously bawling and I know it's kinda stupid, but I'm so upset---I even got cute bear cookie cutters to go with them and my name is Honey and I just thought it was so cute--I'm totally shaking and so pissed they won't even call me back.....

    uh oh I'm sorry where they for a party? Can you get mason jars and maybe do some stickers instead?

    That really sucks.  Try and relax, do you have a Whole Foods store where you can buy honey in a pretty jar and tie some ribbon on the top?

    I'm so sorry. If it doesn't work out you can always buy empty glass jars and fill them with honey. I've seen different size glass jars at stores like Hobby Lobby. It might take some extra work then just ordering but I'm sure some friends would be willing to help out.

    okay--thanks guys--that's actually a good idea...I actually got personalized stickers for my bags, so maybe I can buy the little jars myself and put the stickers on the jars with ribbons...I cannot believe those people...I'm so bummed out--I know it's so dumb to be crying over this but I was just so excited about them! ugh...

    Our Ace Hardware has some totally cute mason jars - and in quite small sizes too. Maybe there's still a chance you can do it on your own with a few friends.

    Are you sure you weren't charged for them? Just double check that they haven't taken the money out from your account.

    Hey we are all hormonal, it's okay to lose it sometimes.

    Deeeeep breaths. It totally sucks that you were blindsided by this, and now will be forced to scramble to make up for it. HOWEVER, you can deal with this easily! Your idea is really cute, and still 100% do-able.

    Any store like Michael's, AC Moore, or any craft/ candle-making /canning shop will have a decent choice of jars you can buy. Buy a few containers of good-quality honey, and you can spoon or pour it into the little jars. The cookie cutter idea is fantastic, and any other little ribbons or fabric covers will just cute it up even more.

    The favors will be fine, and no one will know (unless you tell them) how this crappy site jammed you up behind the scenes! GL!

    I wouldn't worry about it.  People will just be happy to see you and won't care if they get honey or not.  Favors weren't even given out at my shower.

    it's disapointing, but this is not a life altering event. put it in perspective, and move on.
