On Zazzle

Zazzle has some pretty cool items on their site...

and I'm adding new designs to some of these items on a pretty regular

basis.

The Ornaments are a brand new item and I've been

working on all kinds of sketches and designs

to be able to offer a really nice assortment.

Some of these designs may be duplicated on the

Egg Ornaments

in my Rustic Goth Shop..

but most of these designs will only be available

on merchandize in my Zazzle Shop.

I've painted a few egg Ornaments.

I've painted Egg Ornaments since 1993.

Actually...my husband started painting them...he knew me

well enough to know that if he started doing them

and they were 'well received'

then I would 'jump in' and do my part.

So..we took our eggs to a Holiday Show...they did very well...

and we painted them every season from '93 through 2003.

Every season since '03, I've had a few people who wanted to know

if I was going to do any eggs....and I always said 'no'.

It was one of those things my husband and I did together ... and I really

didn't want to do them on my own.

Problem was...my husband had blown, sterilized and base painted

about six dozen eggs that have just been taking up space in my closet.

A few of them even had subject matter on them.

So...the girls and I discussed doing what was left

and offering them at the shows...

then...

we decided not to do anymore shows this year...

but..

I had already put the 'word' out that I would

be doing them..

at least for this year...

so...there you have it...

I'm doing a 'limited' number of egg ornaments...

wish I could get better photos though.

Getting ready for Fall.

I know it is still mid-summer but...
Jaime and I went to Hobby Lobby over the
week-end
and I was reminded of
my 'craft show' days.

There were rows and rows of
Halloween and Fall
decor
and Halloween and Fall craft materials
for the crafters.

A few rows after those
yep...
Christmas!

I will confess that my husband and I just couldn't bring ourselves
to do our Christmas crafts quite this early...
in the twenty years we did craft shows we often
had to put finishing touches on our items
the night before each show.

But...since we are seriously entertaining
the possibility of doing a few
craft shows this year
(it's been five or six years since I last did a show)
we're going to have to start
getting things worked out.
For one thing...we need to get our fees
in now..
or we won't have an option.

So...we'd better get our deciding done pretty quickly!

If we go for it..
I'll be sure to preview some of the items here.
