News about the Roses & Pinwheels

OK! So I just found out that my Rose delivery was delayed because they were awaiting 2 Special Roses that I asked for for the March of Dimes. So hopefully these will arrive by this weekend!

Also some news about the Pinwheels. They are going into production, along with the flip flops, and I made 1 change. My "Rainbow" version will no longer be rainbow. I had originally picked out some brighter color codes for mine, but they were just too close to the store versions, so I sent back a new color scheme, 4 colors, kinda Mardi Gras-ish, Purple, Lime, Yellow and Fushia. I'll post pictures as soon as I have them, I'm guessing 4 weeks.

That's all the news for now.

More Pics & More News!

Things have been rolling along quite smoothly here for me lately, and thankfully! I shipped out all of the Chinese and Japanese Fans a couple of weeks ago and so far everyone has received them! I had a couple mistakes but they were quickly resolved and I hope everyone is happy, I haven't heard otherwise so I'll go with no news is good news.

In early May I had an idea for another fun summer design, Flip Flops! I've been working with Emma at Oak Coins on a lot of my projects, and she must have really liked these. Just 10 short days after mentioning it and showing my rough drafts I had blueprint art! WOW!!! Then to my surprise and delight last week I received the samples! Take a look......

For more pictures of the Flip Flops go here.

Next on the horizon should be my Pinwheels! They are also being produced by Oakcoins for Geoswag.com. I turned in my color choices for them just last night, so I think they are finally going into full production. The wait has been hard, but it's for the best because now you will receive a good, quality coin! Did I mention that they spin!!! I don't have any samples since the art was redone, so I'm looking forward to their arrival just as much as you are!

I'm still anxiously awaiting the arrival of my Roses too! There will actually be several versions, I just can't remember how many. I think I will have at least 20 in red and 20 in white for sale, I"ll post here as soon as they arrive!

Hmmm....what else is there I can share...oh yes! how about a Sneak Peak?!!! This is a design I submitted last year in May. I guess it got overlooked in September 07, but it is coming just in time for this September. This is September coin for the Geoswag Coin and Pin Club.

I was born and raised in upstate NY, the Big Apple state! So it just sorta made sense for me to draw up this design. I hope you like it!
