Sn....oooooooh......no.....

Soooo....more snow. Good thing I sell snow shovels! We had something around 2 feet this past weekend and I guess another 12 inches of so is expected overnight and into tomorrow. The average snowfall for the DC area is around 21 inches each year, so we will get more than 150% of our annual expected snowfall in less than one week!

Wonderful.

Looking out of my dungeon/office window at the snow, I am reminded of the snow globes we did for a local church. They were looking for ways to raise money for a building project and we suggested the globes. We took a series of photos of the current building....

...sent them off to the manufacturer and got a pre-production proof back in about a month. After the appropriate approvals, we produced and delivered 500 of them (the minimum order) in about 3 months. Voila...

They can work from artists' drawings as well, so we can produce the domes with replicas of a building not yet built. Actually, any 3-Dimensional object, real OR imagined would be suitable. If you are interested in selling snow globes as a way of raising funds for your organization this year, now would be a good time to start - especially if a committee is involved. That way we can get them in time for the Holiday selling season.

Remember, now, there are only 318 shopping days left until Christmas! I wonder if I sell snow blowers...hmmm.
