Cute Magnets

The chocolates ended up being a big hit at B's job especially considering that a few years ago the company decided to jump on the healthy band wagon and allow only healthy snacks in the vending machine. Being that most of the staff is female.. well, you know, haha... needless to say, the chocolates sold out quickly! We decided we are not going to sell these online just because we are not sure how to ship them without them melting, so for now, they will just be sold at craft shows and B's work.

Another one of our new projects is magnets. I love making these, they are so easy and fun. All you need is some glass gems, some decoupage, magnets, and some pretty paper or pictures. I'm going to try making some of these with my kids' school photos to see about possibly making custom magnets for people. Here are a few of the designs that we have made so far. I've had a difficult time getting good photos of these because everything reflects off of the gems.
Hugs, Love, and Smile magnets





Various Designs
We are going to sell these online in groups of 3 however, when we are working at craft shows, we will sell each one individually so that people can pick and choose the ones that they want.

I've spent a big part of this week taking photos of of the merchandise we have so far and editing the photos so that they are ready to go up on Etsy. Pretty soon, hopefully within a few days, our Etsy shop will be up and running and ready for business!!
