Ball of Light

I finally made my first "Ball of Light" ornament. It looks really cool. Here is a picture of one that I found on the internet since I haven't been able to take a picture of the one that I made, yet.

Anyway, I'm planning to go to my sisters for Thanksgiving and while I am there, we will make a bunch more and maybe even put them up somewhere.

I talked to my mother and she would like to put some up on her big evergreen tree. I think it will look really cool.

I now have it to the point that I can make one in about 15 minutes. Once I start put them up on some people's houses, we will see if I can get a small business going by selling them to people.

Essay

Coby had to write an essay for one of his 8th grade classes. We found out that the teacher allowed him to read his essay for the whole class. After he read the essay aloud the teacher said she was glad that he presented his essay because she really loved it. So, I am going to post his essay on my blog. Ok, I'm not posting the essay, I am posting a link to his essay.

getting closer

I can tell that Christmas is getting closer. I received 3 orders on my web store today. The shoppers are starting to ramp up their purchases. I guess it will really start to hit after Thanksgiving. I have 10 boxes going out tomorrow morning and about 5 orders sitting in the Queue. Our little web store usually makes enough to help pay for most of Christmas, so, we keep it round all year.

Shameless plug for my web store: http://www.ecarters.com


I am working on a new product for our store. Deanna doesn't know about it yet but I am trying to put the resources together to start selling a large Christmas ornament. When I have all of the details worked out, I'll post a link on my blog so that you all can be the first to make a purchase. :-)
