Welcome to our 2011 lingerie line!
My Beloved's Garden provides Christians with an avenue to purchase marital aids and
learn about sex, love and romance. This can be done without being subjected to porn, rude language, viruses and
spam while keeping Christ at the center. With our Lingerie we have taken the time to take out most of the
natural skin of the models so the focus can be on the lingerie and not the model. All pictures have been altered
with the use of color on the skin, to display the item and not the models body.
Our desire and prayer is...
-
to aid the Christian couple in avoiding sex shops, pornographic magazines, web sites
that promote pre-marital sex, homosexuality, violence and/or volatile or pornographic material.
-
to support Christian couples who require or want the resources to rekindle the passion
in their relationship, spark their desire and assist them in their creative methods of expressing their
love for each other: enabling full sensual and sexual satisfaction, through Romance, intimate Christian
written material and love-making marital aids.
-
to offer a resource for products intended for the Christian couple or individual without
incurring elevated prices. As we all know, most retailers for Christian products tend to be over-priced
in order to offset the low volume and their store-front costs. Instead, we would like to give you the
opportunity to purchase items at prices that are competitive and in most cases unbeatable! If you are
able to find a better price on an item that we carry let us know, and we will do our best to match
it.

WHY DO YOU NOT USE MANNEQUINS TO MODEL OUR LINGERIE?
The reasons we do not use mannequins are
many:
1. Our Supplier ships out our product to our US customers as we are in Canada, so we never actually have
these items in our hands. We do not have tangible product to photograph ourselves.
2. We do not keep stock because of the obvious cost involved. In order to have a large inventory for our
costumers to choose from, many size choices including plus sizes, and then having many of each size stocked
of each item that are ready to be shipped to excited customers, would cost us hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
3. We have chosen the Christian market for the reason of keeping Christian couples from roaming through
store fronts, magazines, websites, catalogues that are pornographic and/or put an other face (other than
ones spouse) on the outfit. The Christian market is significantly smaller than that of the secular market,
the demand for product mimics these numbers. Supply and Demand does not work in our favor, so we have to
work in a way that will keep our head above water.
4. The Lingerie business is part of the Fashion Industry. This industry is ever changing, in fact, our
lingerie almost completely changes quarterly. This means that we have to remove all the pictures,
descriptions, price links to our shopping cart (for each size and color), every three months. This is very
time consuming. If we also had to photograph these items professionally, purchase each one as well, in each
color, we would never make any money at all.
5. We have seen a few other companies like our own who sold their lingerie on mannequins, go out of
business. We think one of the reasons for this is, it is hard enough for one to purchase items via the
Internet, let’s face it, it is a scary venue. To be expected to buy something on a mannequin which
definitely does not give a very good impression of how a garment will look, coupled with the fact that the
item on a mannequin looks of poor quality, is not good for sales or for good representation.
We have done are very best to remove the heads of the models so a connection to a face cannot be made. We
have cut our models off at the leg where the lingerie item end to take away from the viewing the model as a
sexual being. We have blurred out cleavage areas, bellybutton, contouring and muscle tone, to make the
models look as mannequin-like as possible. We have also smudged any areas of a garment that is
transparent.
We are sorry for those whom we may discourage from shopping with us because we use real models, however, we
have found this is the only way we can keep our mission going without putting ourselves out of
business.
If you have found any pictures that need further editing, please let us know, as we would appreciate your
input and will re-edit the picture as soon as possible.
Wives, may we suggest that you look alone at the lingerie pictures if this is an issue for your spouse, and
if you find an item(s) that you would like your husband to view, prior to ordering, we would be happy to
further edit that item(s) to where there is nothing showing accept the item itself?
We know it is hard for some of our clients to understand how Internet businesses work, and we are glad to
have the opportunity to share it with you.
