Our thoughts on the past year.......

As this year is coming to an end, we take time to look back at this extraordinary year. Our thoughts go back to what has made this such a wonderful year and we could only attribute it to one thing---you our friends and customers.

Our goal was to make a quality product to sell at a reasonable price, based on our sales we think you the customer has agreed. We have tried to keep our selection varied changing colors to keep things interesting. The support we received this year did not go unnoticed, we tried to spice things up this month by giving away several Christmas themed spindles and discount coupons. This went so well that we have decided to show our appreciation to you our customers more then once a year. Keep watching the blog as we plan at our whim, just because, and when we want to.....we may just throw a giveaway out there or have a special one of a kind something. We aren't sure just yet what we will do but if you are reading this blog, you will be the first to know.

In closing, we would like to Thank all of our customers and wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We hope your new year will be as exciting and rewarding for you and your family as we hope it will be for ours.

More news from the home front

I have added a new link to the blog it lets you see whats on the etsy site .....I wanted it to show new items only. I'll work on it some more maybe I can figure it out......I wasn't born in a computer world. :0)

I should have a dozen or so Turkish spindles to post later tonight or early tomorrow morning.... I also have a few more of the new shawl pins. We had a request to make one and Dale kind of likes them so look for more soon. Josh has made a few orifice hooks and once he gets a few nights off should be making more. (Josh only gets a couple of nights off a week and being young he sometimes likes to hangout with friends.) Another thing to keep in mind, Dale likes the dymondwood, Josh likes the "plain" woods. So unless they have a special request those are the woods they will be working in most of the time...

We have been working on the new updated version of the web site...it still needs work. If you want to take a look here it is http://www.thomas-creationsllc.com/ it will carry some of the big items for now as well as a link to the etsy site.

Only 8 more days until I draw the 3 winning names for the Christmas Turkish Spindle giveaway... See past postings for more details.......

Well that's all for now I need to go see what that crashing noise was.....anyone want a rambunctious kitten for the holidays....???!!!?? arg!
