NEW NEW NEW : CHM Design Store - Music Stuff & More : CafePress.com

NEW NEW NEW : CHM Design Store - Music Stuff & More : CafePress.com

The links above will give you a peek inside the "New New New" section of the CafePress Music Stuff & More store where you can see the new "gold" treble clef as well as bass clef graphics, other new bass clef graphics, plus the new color choices available on some of the products at CafePress.

While the "gold" treble clef has been around the store for a long time, it's new on dark T-shirts and on black backgrounds generally. The "gold" bass clef is entirely new and on dark T-shirts as well as on most CafePress merch generally.

The new CafePress color choices?

You can now choose white, pink, or blue for the infant/toddler T-shirts, also for the infant creepers.

You can choose white or gray for the adult plain, as well as hooded, sweatshirts.

And, now you can choose dark red ("cardinal") as well as black for the dark T-shirts.

Enjoy.

The Red T-shirts Are Available Now @ CafePress

Yes, they are. Choose between black or red now - today - for the "dark" T-shirts available @ CafePress.

I've some examples of the red shirts in the "Sales & Features" areas of my CafePress premium (big) stores:

New Colors @ CafePress

I've samples of the new colors available on infant and toddler wear and on adult sweatshirts in both of my CafePress premium stores...

CHM Design - Music Stuff & More store (this link is to the "NEW NEW NEW section" in "Sales & Features")

For Women Old Enough... store (its "Sales & Features" section)

The new color choices are pink or blue for the little ones, as well as the original white. For the adult sweatshirts - the plain and the hooded - the new choice will be white or the original gray.

Soon to come - dark red (called "cardinal") as an alternative color for black T-shirts. Fun for Christmas and will look great with some - many - of my graphics, IMHO. CafePress will start labeling these T-shirts "dark T-shirts."

All of these new color choices are already available on these products in all of my stores. When CafePress rolls out the new dark red soon that color will be immediately available as well.

I'm excited. I like this stuff. : )

CafePress Summer Sale (& General Update)

Ends June 30.

Small Mug : $2 off
Kids' Baseball Jersey : $2 off
Men's Sleeveless T-Shirt : $3 off
Women's Tank Top : $3 off
Green T-Shirt : $2 off
Trucker Hat : $2 off

The old prices will have a red slash; the new prices will be in red.

As for "General Update", I've been doing a lot of combing through Music Stuff & More adding products, improving navigation and lay-out, adding text. Generally improving the place, starting with the "Music Merchandise." You may notice my recent work in the "Keyboards/Pianos" area, the "Music Symbols" area (Check out how many more products are in the Eighth Notes and B Wear/Ware areas!), and elsewhere. This "renovating" - or whatever you want to call it - will be ongoing. I'm starting in the Music Merchandise area and will be combing my way through the rest of Music Stuff & More and For Women Old Enough to Know Better, as well as my Basic stores. I'm going to be doing a small amount of tweaking on some graphics, too, such as graphics which, IMO, would be better bigger or higher...

I want to put more time into the Spreadshirt store soon as well. And the website, too.

Even though all that is a ton of work, I would go crazy if I did too much of it of that, frankly, grunt work, so look for some new graphics soon. It's been too long since I came out with a new graphic - I'm thinking music (of course!), politics (California will be electing a governor in November, for one thing), and more California/Orange County (there's not nearly enough of that!).

CafePress Dad's Day Sale Until 6/09 & More

Free Shipping on orders over $50
(max discount $7)
Coupon Code: DADSHIP
Offer Valid until 06/09/2006

That said...

Please note that there are new sections in Sales & Features in Music Stuff & More - most notably a NEW NEW NEW section, which features, guess what? new graphics, and will feature new products when we ever have some (They are coming, they really are. This is about CafePress being slow and careful about releasing this new merch.).

What's this about the Albino Code Store? I do like to support worthy causes, which includes here the issue of albinism. Bummer that "Da Vinci Code"'s Silas the creepy monk is an albino. What's that all about? I have albino acquaintances - I cringed when I read that the murderous Silas was made out to be an albino. Why? This does make life harder for those with albinism - they already have enough problems, with vision and skin problems, and "being different."

This is also a very funny little movie parody of, you know it, the "Da Vinci Code." http://www.albinocode.com/

News & Views Page is featuring Al Gore's movie trailer about global warming as well as information re the California primary election next week (June 6).

There's a ridiculous amount of "Da Vinci Code" stuff throughout my website. The funniest stuff, of course, is on the Wazzup Page - the many parodies.

The For Women Old Enough...store? Check out the latest graphic: You Can Do It! And, who the heck is Crazy Lewis the Cat? and what's this about saving him? Yet another one of my causes. Be sure to read the Shopkeeper's Bio on the Save Lewis store site.

Update! (Drumroll & Fanfare...)

Nope, there's no sales going on right now - not from CafePress, not from me.

You might, however, want to check out the coupon thingie which keeps pumping out fresh CafePress coupons which is located on the sidebar @ CHM Design Store - Music Stuff & More

I am way too late at getting back to this Blog. As usual I'm too busy working on my website, other blogs (related to stores or website), graphics, or other work.

Actually I tend to create graphics and news faster than I can get to reporting them!

But, no excuse, I must do better here. My apologies if you've been looking at this and wondering whatever happened to me and mine.

I've worked a lot on the website today - you'll see improvements especially with the Music Stuff Page, plus additions on several Pages. Lots of improving and updating here and there on the site. Lots more to do!!

Here's some links which will help bring you up to date:
