Turkey Cupboard Print Feature


I have one more thing to be Thankful for as we head into Thanksgiving ...

My Turkey Cupboard print was featured last week on Crabmommy's blog on Conde Nast's Cookie magazine ... thank you for the feature:

We are so excited with the response to our original cupboard prints and added another Abe print to our Etsy store, and have several more to add that were a huge hit at the Holidays in the South Bazaar!

You still have time to get your cupboard prints in time for those special gifts; and at this price you can pick up several ... for teacher's gifts, sister, mother, father ... everyone ... what better place and time to shop ... you can save gas, give a unique gift, and know that you are buying quality work from the original artist at a great price!!

Have a Very Blessed and Safe Thanksgiving!!!
Tina

Veterans Day

11 / 11/ 2008 Veterans Day

A beautiful day indeed to honor and celebrate our Veterans for their service to our country!!

Take the time to thank a Veteran for their bravery, sacrifice and dedication to our country, especially on Veterans Day and during National Veterans Awareness Week, November 9 -15 ... and remember those that have gone before them ... may the light of the Son shine brightly upon them.

The freedom of our vote is a great reminder of what is afforded to us by our Armed Forces.

Thank You For Supporting Our Troops!

Friendship Award

I received this perfect blend of friendship award from over 3000 miles away from Becca from Folk Art From The Harbor ;-)

Here are my Questions and Answers
1. Do you have the same friends since childhood?
Very few. My Dad retired from the Army after 34 years; we moved on the average every 2-3 years, sometimes more often; I went to 3 high schools (Germany, Virginia, and North Carolina)
2. What do you value most about your friends?
Honesty and Integrity.
3. Are your friends sounding boards?
Absolutely!
4. What is your favorite activity to share with friends?
Becca is my best friend ….
When I lived in Washington we did craft shows and sold through AAFES ... We traveled the roads making our wholesale deliveries - because all of our local accounts we delivered in person, weekly ... ;-) When we went on our deliveries, we shopped, had coffee, ate lunch, and found new stores! It was a lot of fun.

Well, Home Is Where The Army Sends Us ... and I am in Florida now ... so we email, mail, but mostly talk on the phone ... several times a day ... for a LONG time … we talk about designing, cameras, taxes, sports, dinner, kids' school, world news ... you name it ... oh yeah and Starbucks
