From the Work Table

Hi Everyone,

I have decided that I am going to make a regular posting of creations "From the Work Table". I'll highlight what's been made since my last post "From the Work Table." I am not sure how often this will be posted but at least once a week. Each posting will have a mixture of coasters and trivets.

Today I am posting a new monogram coaster set I did. A customer who orders regularly called yesterday and wanted an R monogram. I just love this font and I hope you like it as well. It is actually the same font that I've used for all the other monograms I've posted, just a new letter. By next week I hope to post some monograms with a different font because I know not everyone likes the same thing. However, this is a pretty classic font to use for a monogram, don't you think? BTW, this is done on travertine.



I also delivered a sample of the following coaster. This is a custom design for a young lady who is getting married. The last name can be customized for you or your recipent too. It the place of Mr. and Mrs. ____ I can do a monogram. This design is done on tumbled marble. These make awesome wedding favors, gifts for the wedding party, or the happy couple.



This last set is purely fun. It is a touch of whimsy in a world that has a lot of seriousness going on right now. Why not have fun and order a set now to remind you to have a little fun in life? This is shown on travertine.



Almost all designs can be done on either marble or travertine. To place an order, go to my website at www.customcoastersbycindy.com.

I hope you have a good Thursay evening and take time to do something fun and creative as a stress reliever. I think we all need it, don't you?

Toodles for now,
Cindy

All In A Day's Work

I have completed my big order! Yeah! Then I did something that I usually procrastinate on ... cleared my work surface! Now, I didn't say everything got put back orderly. However, I can now look at my work surface and see a clear space, which totally motivates me to get back to work. Well, after a little break.

I want to try to upload pics here and show you my space. The first pic is a vertical pic of my work/space ....

This pic is another view of my work space with a little of my latest work showing.

This last photo is of my work space.  On the left, I am not sure if you can see it, but I have a photo of my mom, who is my inspiration.  Her name was Peggy and she was an artist in her own right.  I want to honor her with my work.

Here are the coasters I made today.  They all have a watermark background of script in dove gray.  The rest is done in black but almost any color is available to customize it to your decor.  All letters of the alphabet are available.  These are just the ones I did today for an order.









Toodles for today,
Cindy
