New Item Line Contest

I am trying to think of a new line of items to put in my shop. There are so many things that are available that I can't decide on my own what I want to do. So I'm asking you! I have a couple of ideas and I'd like you to vote on the one you would be most likely to buy. Everyone who enters this contest will be placed in a drawing and the winner will receive the first of the winning entry!
And always feel free to check out my shop at www.jenspens.etsy.com



Here are the examples of the items I'd like to create.

The first is a ceiling fan chain pull.





This is just an example and will be different from the design I will make.


The next option are Key Chain Pens. They are a key chain that is a pen. Always have a pen handy!




And the final option are Soft Tip Wooden or Acrylic Darts! This would be a new and exciting idea for me! I love to throw darts and making them would be fun! Here is an example.





Just leave a comment on which one you vote for and I will put your name in the drawing and announce the winner next Wednesday September 2. If you are the winner, you will be contacted by e-mail. Thank you for your help and good luck!!

Beautiful day!!



What a beautiful day we have here in Ohio today!! A perfect day to have off and spend with my daughter!! Thinking of taking her to the park and tire her out for a while. She loves the park! Then while she is napping, I'll finally be able to get back into my shop and make some pens and other creations! It is never too early to start Christmas shopping, (which I have started this past week!), so I figure I will get some new items in my shop. I am thinking of starting a new line of items. There is always new items coming out that I can create into something creative. I am thinking of having a contest to see which item I should create for the holiday season and could use some input. I'm thinking the winner will receive the first creation in the line as the grand prize. So check back soon for the contest!

I've been really bad about updating my blog. So let me tell you what I have been up to! I have started making custom desk clocks! It's a new addition to my shop to give shoppers other choices in gift giving. You can see a general picture in the featured section in my shop. These can be made to order and can be make in various colors, stains, and types of wood. Prices will depend on the type of wood used. Please let me know if you have any ideas you would like to see! I have not been making too many new creations lately. Summer has kept me really busy along with keeping up with my 2 year old! I hope to get back into my workshop and bring you new creations very soon! Keep checking back and feel free to make comments and leave feedback! It's always appreciated!
