the Sampler

I finished 25 pens for the Sampler!! I used a variety of designs including the ladybug, peace sign, heart, stripes, and the original swirl design. I packaged them up with a regular business card and a magnetic one : ) I also sent tons of promos:

I'm really excited because I've worked so hard on everything, and I can't wait to see the results. I'm going to try to post a new pen everyday this week. I've made three mini pens and I need to photograph them, so I just need to make 2 more before Thursday. I'm really happy to have time to blog today, too. We are open today, Memorial Day, but since its slow I don't have to be in until 12! I have to say thanks to every single veteran out there for your service to our country. I am especially thankful for the vets over at VoteVets.org for holding true to themselves and taking a stand for what they know in their hearts is right. What you are saying makes a lot of sense, and I hope people will open their hearts to what you are saying...Thanks again.

The Staredown

I was beading away for the Sampler when my movie ended, and after awhile the DVD screen saver came on. The little logo bounces around and changes color. Ruby was fascinated and followed it for 5 minutes before finally barking at it. Hilarious!

I'm mad a USPS right now. They have lost another package of mine! Maybe I just need to add delivery confirmation or something. I realize these things happen, but it was like 3 orders ago, and a very short amount of time. If I ship another method, but then the shipping would cost as much as my product! Catch 22
