Joining iCraft.com

Today I set up a storefront at www.iCraft.ca/chinapainting. This is my only store offering custom order and local pickup service. In case you don't know, I live in Toronto, Canada.

Recently I heard a lot of new online stores coming into the internet world, e.g. craftisart.com. Most of them are US based. iCraft.ca suits perfectly my local marketing needs. In this way, Toronto people can pick up their orders without paying any shipping charge.

Also, I start painting accent tiles for household kitchens and bathrooms locally. I personally prefer the tiles ordered from http://www.olympiatile.com/. In this way, the thickness of my accent tile can be consistent with the rest of backsplash. You can see my painted accent tiles at one of my posts, My New Renovated Kitchen.

Chantilly Cup & Saucer - Gift

Last night I finally finished painting a gift to my pastor and his wife. This set of cups and saucers were painted with Chantilly pattern in Victoria Blue color. Then I wrapped them with green blue colored wrapping papers. Instead of using traditional color - Christmas red, gold or even green, I think using blue colors for this season is kind of "cool" and special.
At the back of each saucer, I wrote different messages on them as below.

"Bethany,

May there be joy in your home and love in your heart as

you enjoy all the pleasures that Christmas imparts.

Love in Christ,

X'Mas 2009"

"Rev. Kinson,

Grace and peace to you from God our Father

and Lord Jesus Christ,

Love in Christ,

X'Mas 2009"

My New Thumbnail Logo

Here is my new thumbnail logo for my Facebook and MSN. I like the color combination - leaf green, grey and dark brown.
