Family Blocks Re-Invented

In our last show we had a bunch of Family Blocks left over from our Christmas show. They were cute but I was not really very happy with the quality of them. I wanted to re-do them for our next shows. Today I finished up making 20 sets of these and I love the way they turned out. They are much larger than before and have a very chunky feeling. Let me know what you think. These will sell for $16.50 a set. They will be on our Etsy site soon.

So....Cute!!

We are working hard preparing for our next shows. We have the weekend of the 12th at Maple Valley Days and then the weekend of the 19th at Meeker Days in Puyallup. I love love love doing craft shows but always get sort of tired of making the same old thing. I am always on the look out for some new ideas. My favorite thing to do is to take an idea and "kick it up a knotch".

Check out these new family blocks. I love the way they turned out and can't wait to have them in our show to see how they sell. They come in the three different designs listed. They measure 15 inches long and about 6 1/2 inches high. They sell for $21.00 a set. If you are interested in a set of your own, let us know and we would be happy to sell you one. These will be listed on Etsy soon.

Candle Holders

We recently created these candleholders that have gotten rave reviews by family and friends so we thought they would post them here. They are 10', 8' and 6' high and come with either Live, Love, Laugh or Faith, Family, Friends. These can be customized as well with anything you would like.

They are so chunky and cute and look adorable on a shelf or mantle. We sell these either completed or in kits and pricing is as follows:

Completed: $18 plus shipping

Kit: Includes wood, nail and vinyl: $10 plus shipping

Vinyl only: $5 plus shipping

Clean Up Time!

I just created this new family chore chart design and it came out so cute, I wanted to post it. This sign measures 8" x 24". It is shown in black, white and beige but could be customized to any colors to match your home. I think browns and greens would be adorable! We sell this either as a finished product, in kits, or as vinly only. Pricing is as follows:

Finished Project: $35 (includes 6 customized chores and magnets)

Kit: $18 (includes wood, vinyl, magnet kits and metal strip)

Vinyl Only: &10

Shipping would be $10 for finished product or kits. $5 for vinyl only.

Enjoy!

We've Been Bitten!

Twilight is all the rage right now and it has hit the vinyl business. Valerie (aka our President of Marketing and Customer Relations) and her family traveled to Forks a couple of weeks ago. While there she was doing some shopping and came across a store there called "Dazzled" that sells all kinds of Twilight memorabilia. Being the social butterfly she is and not being one to pass up an opportunity, she struck up a conversation with the owner and the next thing you know we are designing everything Twilight. I personally do not know a whole lot about it but I am following Valerie's directions and creating new projects ideas that she can market to the store. The owner there is very interested in our products and we hope to have a big order soon. Here is a little of what we created. If you have any other ideas, feel free to share!

These are trio-stacker blocks. So far we have about 8 different designs. Here are the first couple we have made:

These are similar to the "Welcome" blocks listed in a previous post but they spell all thing Twilight. There are 9 blocks in each set and they spell 11 words that we know of. There may be others that we have not thought of. :)
