Love is In the Air and the Air is Cold!

Hellllooo to Everyone!

I hope your winter is not too cold and that you have a warm corner to enjoy your favorite hot chocolate or hot tea. Our weather has been up and down, warm and cold, but this winter has been colder than most in the last few years. We are having winter weather advisories and we may get an ice storm ... all down here on the gulf coast in the USA. Wow! The air is cold and it makes it exciting but scary too, to think about getting out and about wi th all it can bring! Snow? Sleet? Ice? That are some of the predicitions, but we'll have to wait see if it actually happens.

The actual air may be cold but we have Valentine's Day coming soon to warm our hearts. We often think of our special someone around this time ... boyfriend, girlfriend, spouse--and we should. Valentine's is an awesome reminder of who we love and why. But it doesnt have to be just for boyfriends, girlfriends, or spouses. You may have a special somone you can honor with a special phone call, gift, or flowers, a visit, lunch or dinner.

What I'd like to suggest for your special someone is a gift from Custom Coasters by Cindy. At Custom Coasters by Cindy you'll find a special creation for that special someone. You will find plenty to choose from--coasters, trivets and cards. Almost anything you see at the site can be customized in color and several can have a monogram added, all at no extra charge.

If you live locally (Houma, Thibodaux, and Morgan City, LA) you may place an order through Monday, February 10. If you live out of our area you may place your order through Friday, February 7, to have it for Valentine's Day.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 985-381-3154.

Blessings,
Cindy

All In A Day's Work, Part II

A locally owned, family run business has ordered mongammed coasters from me over the last several months. When I delivered an order to them this morning I found out that the monograms are a big hit. When their customers find out they are locally made they are even more excited. So, there you go. Crafts that are locally made by a local person buying as many supplies as possible from locally owned, family stores. As few purchases as possible from big, box stores for supplies.

I found out today that the business that ordered the monogrammed coasters also wants a sample of a wedding coaster to have on hand. This will allow their clientele to custom order it with their name on it or it can be added to their wedding registry as a potential gift. Yeah! I am so excited. These coasters can be used as a wedding gift for the special couple, wedding favors for guests, gifts for the wedding party, etc. Orders for a large quantity require 4-6 weeks advance notice. It will be personalized with your choice of "Mr. & Mrs. ___" or your monogram. The wedding date can be added to the front or the back of the coasters if room allows. 50% deposit required for large orders.

Here is a photo of a wedding coaster that can be customized with your new married name. Most names will fit. This design is done on tumbled marble in stone gray. The top edge is slightly burnished in the same color.

For a personal consultation and a free quote for a large quantity, please call 985-381-3154 to set up an appointment.

Toodles for now,
Cindy
