New Graphics, New Merch & Just Plain Store News

Yes, I did put up those Obama-Biden graphics I wrote about Obama-Biden in my last post. I gambled that Joe Biden would be Obama's vice-presidential pick - and, obviously, I won.

Check out some of these Obama-Biden goods

Have I mentioned the new CafePress clocks here yet? Check out some of my new clocks.

The new Junior Jerseys have arrived @ CafePress. Also, find new ceramic travel mugs (nice for gifts).

Other new graphics besides the Obama-Biden ones - new music graphics, such as the two new green eighth-note graphics.

Check this out if you still need back-to-school items. Do note that there's new-and-improved journals.

Easy on your pocketbook in these challenging economic times, check out some of my CafePress under-$10 merchandise. Find some of these in the Back-to-School section as well as in the "Bernanke Bargain Bin" (filled with music graphics, and other graphics too, such as Earth, peace symbols, nerdy/geeky stuff, Christian crosses, flowers, etc.). Check out these affordable merchandise links:

~ Cheap School Stuff @ www.cafepress.com/chmdesign/5876855 (Priced @ under $10)
~ Bernanke BARGAIN BIN @ www.cafepress.com/chmdesign/5214776 (Priced @ under $10)
~ Journals on Sale @ www.cafepress.com/chmdesign/5893323 (Again, priced @ under $10)

Also, please visit Music Stuff & More @ CafePress store's "NEW NEW NEW" section, as well as "Sales & Features", and, of course, "Music Merchandise."

And, don't forget my new Music Stuff & More @ Zazzle store. This Zazzle store has musical Circle of Fifths round keychains, the musical Keds shoes, and other merchandise not available at CafePress. Pictured below is one of the Circle of Fifths Zazzle keychains, look for the same in other colors and styles.

There's been a lot happening the past month or two: new store (Zazzle), closed store (the former "For Women Old Enough... store"), new graphics, new merchandise... (Whew.)

Finally, do note that I still will be offering almost all the graphics and merchandise once found in the former, now-closed, For Women Old Enough... store. (For one thing, they sold well!) I've also got a few "grannygear"-type items in my new Zazzle store, such as this pink "Granny Boomer" T-Shirt. So, watch for these "For Women Old Enough..." graphics on merchandise at my stores at both Zazzle and CafePress. (Yes, more later on this.)

I strongly recommend that you sign up for my monthly CafePress newsletter. It's a good news summary for my CafePress store, a newsletter I've been sending out every single month for years. Find the newsletter sign-up on the side-bar of this blog as well as on the Storefront of my Music Stuff & More @ CafePress store.

Enjoy the Fall, the Election, and the new school year!

Bedazzled by Zazzle, also Store Closing

Say "Hello" to my new Zazzle store - Music Stuff & More (also look under "chmayer"). (Gee, where have we heard that Music Stuff & More store name before...? hmmm...? scratching my head... ; )

And say "Good-bye" to my "For Women Old Enough to Know Better", a.k.a. grannygear, store, which will be closed by August.

However, the "For Women Old Enough..." store is still open as I speak, and with a Junior Jersey Blow-Out Clearance Farewell and Closing Sale, at that. I have marked my Junior Jersey prices way down throughout the store. Add my mark-down to CafePress's Junior Jersey mark-down starting next Monday, and you've got lots of savings. Take advantage - after all, school and Fall are coming before you know it. Get your nifty cheap Jerseys now.

Back to "For Women Old Enough..." store... This CafePress Premium Store originated when CafePress offered me a free six-months deal for me to upgrade my Basic Store (a free store, but with limited options) to a Premium Store. I took up CafePress's offer, even though I was already busy with my first and original CafePress Premium Store, Music Stuff & More.

"For Women Old Enough..." store did well those first six free months, so I kept it. It has always more than paid its way, still does, but I like the idea of consolidation now - it's easier, more convenient, simpler, for me and, I believe, for you customers. Oh, and there'll be one less store to make payments on...

You will now find your favorite graphics and merchandise from "For Women Old Enough..." store @ my Music Stuff & More store. (As you may have noticed, many of these graphics and merch have been there already.) Look in the "& More" area for your favorite non-musical graphics. I'm in the process of "revealing" them soon, after I get them all tidy and ready-for-primetime.

So, "For Women Old Enough..." is open now as I write, with great deals on Junior Jerseys, even now, more so starting next Monday.

Related, I haven't figured out yet what to do with the "For Women Old Enough...", a.k.a. Groovy Ladies, Blog. It will remain open and running until I can figure out what to do with it, a decisiion which will be made sometime before long...

Now, back to Zazzle. I am only just starting out my modest, much smaller Music Stuff & More store on Zazzle. You will see some familiar music graphics, also a peace symbol, the Earth, an Obama graphic - not much yet. Yes, it will be mostly *Music Stuff*. Zazzle offers some merch that CafePress doesn't, so I will be taking advantage of that. Also, I have a mini- Zazzle storefront in my Facebook Profile. Handy! (Do note, also, that I have a "CafePress Listing" Facebook Profile "app" where you can view and shop at my CafePress Music Stuff & More store, as well.)

Finally, to sum up, Junior Jersey sales @ my CafePress stores, my new Zazzle store, and the impending close (by August) of "For Women Old Enough..." store.

I'll soon be putting up links for Zazzle, also Facebook. To find me *now* on Facebook, give me a "Facebook Poke" or drop me a message, so I can "let you in." I'm using my real name on Facebook. Any combination of "Carolyn Hanson Mayer" should do and get you to my Profile. If you just plain want to visit my new Zazzle store, stop by Music Stuff & More on Zazzle. Look for "chmayer."

Keep cool!

Junior Jersey News & Sale @ CafePress

Jr. Jersey Upgrade Coming Soon to CafePress.

From CafePress...

Last year the Jr. Babydoll T-Shirt was upgraded with the current Jr. Jersey T-Shirt, with improvements to the overall quality and style. We’re pleased to announce another upgrade to the Jr. Jersey! Many Shopkeepers [and, customers, of course] will be happy to hear that the new shirt is from fashion brand – American Apparel, with updated colors at the same Base Price [and my same price, which will remain unchanged].

The details of the new Jr. Jersey T-Shirt are:

* American Apparel * Crew neck t-shirt, fashion fit * 100% Fine Jersey cotton, combed for softness and comfort * Colors: white, creme, lime, pink...

This Junior Jersey upgrade will happen in a few weeks but before that, we need to sell out of the current Jr. Jersey T-Shirt. Sounds like a great excuse for a sale! Starting Monday, July 14, we’ll have a liquidation sale for the current Jr. Jersey T-Shirts in white, blue, and pink. This sale will be promoted by Shopkeepers only – so it’s up to you to spread the word to your customers... [Which is exactly what I'm doing here...]

Junior Jersey Clearance Sale details:

* Promotion: $4 off Jr. Jersey T-Shirts * Coupon code: 4JRJERSEY * Sale starts: Monday, July 14, 2008

* Expiration: While supplies last*
* This is a liquidation sale, so as colors and sizes are sold out will be permanently removed from shops.

Back to me.... This sounds cool, a good thing. American Apparel is very popular now. And, sales are always a good thing. So, this is a good opportunity for you to stock up now for school and Fall. And, for extra savings, check out the following news...

I'm having a Junior Jersey Blow-Out Clearance Sale @ my "For Women Old Enough..." store, part because of this Junior Jersey Sale and as a parting farewell gift to my customers as I close out my "For Women Old Enough..." store by the end of this month (July), the "For Women Old Enough..." store will no longer be in August. (See my next post for more on this.)

Junior Jersey Blow-Out Clearance Farewell Sale @ "For Women Old Enough..." store. Actually I have marked down ALL of the Junior Jerseys in this "For Women Old Enough..." store, so you will be able to doubly save if you take advantage of this Farewell Sale - my mark-down (present now as I write), plus CafePress's mark-down (which begins next Monday).

And, as always, please be sure to visit and shop @ Music Stuff & More store.

New Grafs & New Merch, with Images

Images of just a couple of my many new items... Above, the new Raspberry Baseball Cap with the new "InfiniStitch Embroidery." Below is one of the Obama graphics, somewhat obviously. This graphic looks great on buttons - I know, I ordered ten mini-buttons myself and am very pleased with how they turned out.

A few links to some of my new graphics and new merchandise:

See Music Stuff & More store's "Sales & Features" and "NEW NEW NEW" section and 2008 Election & 4th of July (Americana, generally, also includes Obama stuff). And still more Obama stuff in the "& More" section

(Yes, the above is a copy-and-paste from the "For Women Old Enough..." blog, I confess. I'm hot and tired...yes... Another excuse: I live in a fiery state, a.k.a. California. And, as the old song goes, smoke gets in my eyes...)

NEW for *this* blog, and this blog only: Have I mentioned my presence on Facebook yet? Yes, I am there, you can find me under my real name. Drop me a "Poke" or a message. You'll find ads for my CafePress premium store, as well as my brand-new, under-construction (isn't my stuff always under construction...??!) Zazzle store. *This blog* is found on my Facebook Profile Page. See there, also, photos of my Zazzle products.

Yes, I need to put links to Facebook and my Zazzle "gallery" here ASAP. Please look for them here soon.
