Just Beachy and Collectible Thimbles

Volume 14 Issue 2, February 2017

What's New in February?

Moving forward with new products like my Mother’s Day and Easter collectible thimbles featuring my decals, as I get some of my other projects off my schedule. Like moving all of my cross stitch patterns to a new website. That has been six months in the making, but now is done.

I am putting together my first collection of household gifts. I took a rather informal poll amongst my newsletter readers and it was decided that they wanted to see a collection of like pieces, as well as the ability to buy them individually. My first collection is likely to include mugs, plates, placemats and possibly a table runner from my Just Beachy graphics.

Other than that, just enjoying a little cold snap in my part of Florida before we have to contend with hot, muggy weather.

Collectible Thimbles: Added Easter, another humming bird and a shamrock with this last update of thimbles. On deck include some ideas for crafters and other groups, as well as personalized photos.

Hot Rod Mugs: My 32 Ford images have been very popular, and I discovered that Zazzle partnered with Ford to consolidate all of the Ford images into the Ford store, so I am offering MY Ford art on my website rather than Zazzle.

You will find all of my beads, canes and finished jewelry on my website. www.bluemorningexpressions.com

Until next month,

Julie & Blu

Things to Look Forward To:

New Products:

Hotrod magnets: I am finishing up the hotrod magnets, and I have a couple dozen done, but not featured in the shop.

Bangle Bracelets: Have a few bangles done, but adding a lot more.

Print Pieces: I am working on a range of beach theme pieces that include pillows, towels, table clothes and more. In addition, I am doing a lot of floral designs for homes and finishing my hotrods.
