Business Card

A few blogs ago I gave kudos to http://www.jleabannerdesigns.etsy.com/ for her great graphic skills. Well, here I am once again giving her Kudos for all the great things she's done for me. For starters, I finally have a business card made to my liking and has ME written all over it. On top of it, The Trinket Trunk will now have a button for all you followers to add to your blog as well. I can't thank Jenny enough for being patient and working with me until I was completely happy.

So here it is folks... what do you think?

Isn't it soooo cute??? Gotta love it!

Sweet Irie

In the past I posted a few items that I love from Sweet Irie and as always I continue to be addicted to her items!!! I just bought the cutes cupcake coin purse and camera strap (also cupcakes) which I think many of you will enjoy. However, Sweet Irie has expanded and now has her own site. It is very secure, user friendly, you can create your own profile and as always her products are GREAT!

So take a few minutes and explore http://www.sweetirie.com/store/ and see what you can find. She also has a great father's day gift which is just around the corner so take a look!


Love,
The Trinket Trunk

Featuring at The Trinket Trunk...

I just wanted to share with everyone some really great art work. Linda is actually got some really neat cards, magnets and just all sorts of stuff. You can check out all her art work at www.lindagj.etsy.com Here is some of her art that are my favorite because of the color and detail. Don't get me wrong, there is lots more to look at and all AWESOME!! Of course since I'm a Doxie fanatic, I had to buy the Dachshund. Again, let me remind you that all items are handmade, she DOES NOT use any sort of mold to create these figurines. One more special thing about Linda is that she's also from Houston! We really do have some talented people in Texas! Become a follower of Visual Smiles Gallery at www.lindagjones.blogspot.com

Update

I've just returned from vacation and while I was out I got sooo many new ideas. In addition I"m in the process of finding someone to create a website for me so that my trinket trunk fans can buy not only crafts but some of the jewelry I sell on the side as well. I'm not sure how soon my site will be up and running but its in the works.

Please don't forget to spread the word about The Trinket Trunk. Also, yesterday I posted 2 new items on etsy so check that out as well. I'm slowly but surely trying to start my expansion and hopefully in due time I will be a little more than a "corner" store :)

Meanwhile, stay tuned for updates on the release of my store. I will let everyone know when the GRAND OPENING will be. Meanwhile, its time for the craft shows to begin. Starting in June I will start doing craft shows again and will be looking for any artist willing to sell at a whole sale price to sell at my next show. Look forward to hearing from a few artist!
