Two new items!

I know that I am totally supposed to be away for Thanksgiving vacation, but I just can't help post a few more things on here! LOL! I actually have one more thing that I am working on besides today's post that I want to put up before Cyber Monday.* Back to today's post:

The first item I have is an 8x10 frame that says: Believe in the magic!

I absolutely love the lighter green frame!


It is so festive and fun! Like I said above, this is on an 8x10 backless frame that features a red Believe with yellow star replacing the i-dot and an "in the magic" overlay in green. I finished it off with a red ribbon tied in a bow!

Project Price: $6.00














The second project is actually a set of 4 snowflake magnets. This is another really inexpenisve gift you can hand out to students, visiting/home teaching families, neighborhood friends, mail carrier, etc.














(Sorry about the poor picture quality! These were taken on my cell phone since my DH accidentally broke my digital camera!)

These snowflake magnets measure a little less than 1 sq. in. and come in a set. The backgrounds are all different shades of blue. The thing I like about these is that they would be a great addition to display on your fridge until springtime! If you live in Logan, UT, that means until May! LOL!

There are a few options with these. You can order just the magnets or you can order them in packaging with a quote about snowflakes (both religious and non-religious quotes available) on a decorative tag. I haven't gotten around to taking a picture of them in packages yet, but I will get to that as soon as possible!

Project Price:
Magnets only- $1.00 set of four
Packaged set- $2.00 (includes 4 magnets, cellophane bag, ribbon, and tag with snowflake message)



*Cyber Monday specials will arrive in your e-mail! Keep your eyes on your inbox! If you would like to receive the specials e-mail, please leave a comment under this post and I will add you to the mailing list. similarly, if you would like to stop receiving emails (I only send out like two a year...) please email me directly at vinyltalksbychristie@gmail.com

Nativity Vinyl


It is that time of year again! Time to start planning for Christmas! One of my family's favorite traditions is setting out our nativities. We have about two or three! There is just something so special about recalling our Savior's birth at this time of year. My favorite is seeing glass blocks that have been etched with a nativity scene and then lit up with sparkling lights. It brings such a reverence to a home.
Here you will find some choices for your own masterpiece nativities. To order your custom scence or characters, simply email me the codes you see next to the graphic you would like to purchase. From there, we will discuss layout, colors, sizes, etc.
Project Price: $7.00 per sq. ft.
Large order quantity discounts will be given.

Holiday Hours

Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to let you know the Holiday schedule so you would be able to get orders in on time, etc.

I will be working on vinyl orders, emails, calls, etc. from 8a,m. to 5p.m. (sometimes I cheat but these are the published hours) Monday through Friday.

I will be closing for Thanksgiving on Friday, November 19, 2010 and will re-open Monday, November 29, 2010 for Cyber Monday.

December is a little sketchy still but I think we're looking at taking orders until Friday, December 17. I won't re-open until the New Year (January 3, 2011).

Also, please be aware that I am expecting my second child on January 15, 2011 so I will probably just do what I can around then.

Thank you so much for your business and support. I absolutely love doing vinyl and helping to beautify your homes. Let me know if you need anything!

Thanks,
Christie

Jar Luminaries

Here is the first of what I hope to be many inexpensive holiday gifts to give neighbors, visting/home teaching families, etc.

These jar luminaries are perfect for a spiritual gift that can be displayed year-round (and don't add inches to the waist! ;)). They feature glass marbles at the bottom to help relfect light and a beautiful flower resting on top to add color. The jar is finished off with a vinyl cut-out of the Salt Lake Temple and the caption "I love to see the Temple." The jar does contain a battery-operated tea light that can be turned on and off.

Project Price: $5.00

For those of you outside of Logan, UT, I can ship these but please be aware that shipping cost will be greater because insurance and careful packaging will need to be employed to ensure your order arrives safely. You may choose to get a kit and put them together if you wish. The kit will include glass marbles, tea light, flower, and vinyl decal. The kit cost is $3.00.

May I also suggest, glass etching the jar. It would yield a beautiful result!

Move over Halloween!

Well, it is officially gift-buying time! According to several articles, Christmas shopping season begins the first business day after Halloween! It's that time folks! Let VinylTalks by Christie help take some of the pressure off of holiday shopping by giving something truly unique to your loved ones.
