Holiday Shopping and You!

I'm going to say something that isn't too much of a surprise here. The holidays are riding roughshod already, and there's nowhere to hide. And since that's the case, you'll fare better if you have gifts waiting for them when they come for you. I make this sound a little scary for a reason. Fear has a way of lighting a fire under... well... you know.

I don't have anything clever to say (do i ever?), nor exciting to announce. I'm just here, adding my two cents to the blog-o-sphere. And what i want to say is that, although i have nothing mind-boggling to share, i have been working steadily, daily, on creating and adding new, unique designs. Some ribald, others uproariously funny, still others thought-provoking. And i do it just for you, my faithful audience.

Here is where i need to announce once more that i also offer digital photo restoration and repair for a wonderful price. Old photos, or newer, damaged, dog-eared, cracked, split, scraped, faded, etc. can be professionally restored. You need more information? Please go to my (very basic) website. It gives you, i think, most of the information you might need. It includes samples, some background information, and some interesting ideas, too. Don't be afraid to try it, at least.

My holiday blog wouldn't be complete without wishing all of you and yours a very, very meaningful and enjoyable season. I know that's not possible for everyone, and i wish them the best that the season can offer. The holidays will come and go faster than anyone can imagine, and soon we will be looking 2011 straight in the eye. The good thing is that, even if the holidays will be gone, my designs and the products they are printed on will always be good gifts, and fun ideas for the entire year. In the meantime, please stay safe. And buy my stuff!

Autumn at Bakktalk Online Gifts

Greetings!

It's somehow already the middle of October, the leaves are doing their thing right on schedule, the air has since yesterday turned crisp, sharp and we all are flying headlong, like it or not, into the 2008 elections, the holiday season(s), not to mention Winter.


We've been busy since the last posting and we hope that our variety of new designs reflects that. Just to make you all aware, we are introducing a new set of what we describe as faux team sports names, like this one:


As far as i know, there really isn't any organized sports team called the Rocket Scientists. And if there is, i'm sorry to hear it. But the name is one that would reflect a team with many members, and that's the concept here.

So far this is the only design offering in this category, but there will be many more available in the near future. To be clear, all designs will be featured on so much more than just shirts & hats. Faux team names for all kinds of groups, hopefully, that will catch the eye of shoppers looking for a unique gift for a friend or family member who might just be a perfect "team member" for that group. And, if any of you have a suggestion for one that you'd like to see, just e-mail your suggestion to me at bladimz@dejazzd.com. I will consider all entries; try to keep them at least PG rated, please.

I have been stallling on the idea of opening a second shop for some reason. I guess it's just not the right time for that move. Anyway, I will remember to announce that at the proper time.

Bakktalk Online Gifts, to remind you, does offer a dazzling array of holiday designs for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas for gifting again this season. Of course, everyone is pretty aware of the current economic ditch we find our collective selves in. We can only hope that things begin to improve sooner rather than later. And with that in mind, i urge you to spend carefully at this time. Mostly at our store, of course.

I've been paying close attention to the debates and the campaigns have not disappointed anyone who might have been watching for it all to get nasty. We only hope that all of what has been said, analyzed, and reviewed leads to an historic election that will serve this country's best interests in the years to come. God bless us all!

Stay healthy, strong and positive until next time!
