Please be honest, I can take the good or the bad.

The site has been live for over a month now and is just not pulling in the orders... I don't know what's wrong.

Thanks,
Heather

Personally, I'd say cut down on the size of your graphics. On a 56k (which most internet users have) it took about a minute and a half to load. That's with a fairly recent computer. People don't like to wait for a website to load. Look at Amazon.com. Load it on your computer and count in your mind how fast it loads. Then do the same thing to yours.

Also, what are you selling that people absolutely can't get anywhere else?

What are you doing to promote the site?

Heather the big question is how are you promoting your site?
Google has you listed with very small page rank and there seems to be only 4 backword links either. This means that only 4 sites are currently linked to your site, all but one through your web ring. Also 1 to 2 months is not a long time when you consider that most search engines take up to 8 weeks to list you. The site is cute and has a lot of potential. You may want to take jrich's suggestion on the graphics and load times, I am on a cable modem and it still takes longer then it should to load. Most large scale design tools will give you a time frame for loading. It needs to be short as possible.

Some positive suggestions include advertise on some sites or search engines. 123christian.com has a great rate for a year of adds. You will need a banner though, Logan can design one for you at a very competitive rate. You may also want to consider starting an affiliate program.

Hope I have helped.
