New Necklaces Available- On Sale NOW

Brand New Silver Necklaces from KRW Designs!

If you missed the contest I just ran, you probably don't know that Zazzle is now offering gorgeous silver necklaces.

I just got some in the mail today that I ordered as Christmas gifts. I am thrilled with them! They are even lovelier than I had hoped they would be. I can't wait to give them out.  They are nice and heavy (but not too heavy) and the colors are vibrant.

Below are pictures of the necklaces I bought. I am so happy with them, I am going to take advantage of the sale Zazzle is currently running to order one for myself. Thru December 20, you can own one of my necklaces for just $15.95 - that's a savings of $20!  At this price, get one for gift and one for yourself! Use code NEWPRODSZAZZ when checking out to get the sale price.

WIN a Sterling Silver Necklace of Your Choice from KRW Designs!

YOU COULD WIN A STERLING SILVER NECKLACE OF YOUR CHOICE FROM KRW DESIGNS.

Zazzle has just launched its latest product - sterling silver necklaces! To celebrate this fabulous new product, and to celebrate this season of giving, I am going to give one lucky person a necklace of his or her choosing from one of my shops.

Who can enter? This contest is open to anyone in the US - anyone, even other Zazzlers and my friends and family. If you are not in the US and would like to enter, if you are willing to PayPal me the difference in shipping- then you are welcome to enter! (but please don't enter if you are outside the US unless you are certain you are willing to PayPal me the difference in shipping if you win, thank you.

How this will work.  Just leave a comment that you would like to enter the contest, and which necklace(s) from my KRW shops you like. It's that simple.  People may leave comments until midnight, EST on December 14, 2010. On December 15, 2010, I will draw a name at random from all those entered and that person will be the winner.  The winner will be contacted and given the choice of any of the necklaces in any of my KRW shops.  Winner will be asked to make their selection by December 17, 2010. (you are not bound by whatever choice you may make in your comment now)

What you should know: This contest is for necklaces created by KRW Designs and other KRW shops Only.   Winner may not pick from other designs available at Zazzle.  Please do not count on this as being a Christmas gift. First off, only one can win - and... it might not be you.  Even if it is you, I can't promise delivery for Christmas.  I will draw the winner in the time tested, traditional method of random winner picking.  I intend to put all the names onto slips of paper, place the slips of paper into a large bowl or bag and reach in and pick one out.  So everyone has an equal chance.

Please feel free to pass the word along on this :)

Below are just a few samples of some of the necklaces I currently have available. More are being added and there will be a much, much wider selection by the 15th!

Unique iPhone and iPad Covers Make Great Christmas Gifts

     The eternal holiday question: What to get the person who has everything?  Or the increasingly taxing, What to get that fussy teenager?  Well, here's a fresh answer: A custom cover for their iPad or iPhone!

     Sure! It' a great gift idea.  Now, maybe those that aren't into the latest tech gear might ask if there really is a market for such things.  Trust me, there is.  Just Google the net and you'll find tons of sites that sell covers for these fun, trendy gadgets.  So many, in fact, that it is easy to find one to suit anyone on your shopping list, well, provided they have an iPad or an iPhone.

   Just imagine, giving that crabby teen who thinks they are too cool for everything a unique cover for her cell phone that will be the envy of all her friends.  Picture that relative that you can never think of anything to buy for.  Don't waste money on another sweater that will sit in the back of the closet.  Wow him with a custom cover for his iPad that shows you think of him as more than just beige cashmere.  Do you have a budding artist in your midst?  Surprise them with a cover made from their artwork.  Treat your spouse to a custom cover that will bring a smile to their face and remind them of how sweet and thoughtful you are every time they use their cell phone.

       Have your own business?  Why not create your own custom cover with your company logo?  Are you an artist, show off your work and let others see what you can do by displaying it on a custom cover.  Or perhaps you just want to stand out in the crowd, show off your individuality.  Go for it! Express yourself with a custom iPhone or iPad cover.

     Zazzle.com not only sells the works of thousands of independent artists, but also major brands and licensed characters, such as Harry Potter, Batman, Justice League, Disney, Hanna Barbera, iCarly, Nickelodeon, Barbie, Neopets, Camp Rock, Hannah Montanna, Looney Tunes, South Park, Spongebob Squarepants and more, plus rock bands and artists such as Kiss, ZZ Top, The Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, Jason Mraz, Cheap Trick, Plain White Ts, Yes, The Who, Poison and many more. 

     If that's not enough, Zazzle offers you the ability to customize and create your own iPhone and iPad covers too (please read Zazzle's User Agreement, under User Conduct regarding what images etc. are ok to use).

   Need help designing that perfect case for that special someone?  No problem!  Visit my shop, KRW Designs, and click the Send Mesage link to contact me.  I'd be glad to help you.  In the meantime, here are just a few of the iPad and iPhone cases I have for sale - and there will be more added soon!

PLUS - RIGHT NOW - GET FREE SHIPPING!
Zazzle is offering Free Shipoping on orders of $50 or more

LGBT Support Day October 20, 2010

In recent weeks, we've all heard the stories of the tragic suicides of young people across this country who were bullied and harassed into believing their only recourse was to kill themselves.  And why? Because they were homosexuals.  No more than that.  They weren't criminals.  They didn't hurt anyone. They didn't do anything illegal or harmful or evil.  They were simply born with a disposition to be attracted to the same gender.  And for that, cruel, thoughtless people tormented them to the point where they felt compelled to end their lives.  Talk about evil....

Of course, we could all debate the issue till the cows come home, but I have no interest in debating this issue.  People who are homosexual are born that way. Period. End of discussion for me.  No amount of debate will ever convince me that one single solitary person would choose to be part of a group that's treated this way, let alone all the millions of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people that are in the world. So, let's just move on to what's really important at this point.

What is important now is support.  We must support our fellow man.  We have to show support to our neighbors, coworkers, peers.  We have a responsibility to our communities, local and global, to spread the message that hate and intolerance must be abolished.  The youth of this world need us to show them, by our words and actions, that we will support them. That it is ok for them to be who they are. That when they do have the misfortune to run into narrow-minded fools who harass them or bully them that they are not alone and will not be left to their mercies. That they don't have to feel hopeless.  I have created some images and posted them on my graphics site that I am allowing people to use (for personal use) to show their support.  You can find them at www.krwgraphics.com/LGBTAcceptance    I hope you will like these images and please refer your friends to use them too if they like. It's a small step - but I hope the wide usage of images like these will help keep this issue in the forefront of people's minds. And hopefully, for those teens out there who need our help, when they see them being used, they will know we care.

There are other things we can do.  Many of us spend so many hours of our lives on the internet. We all see postings on Facebook and the like about spreading the message of tolerance, but how many of us actually go ahead and spread that message?  How many of us tell friends and family that might make a joke about gays that it's inappropriate?  Do we all teach our children that there are all kinds of families, including families that have 2 mommies or 2 daddies, or do we avoid it because it might be awkward?  I know it's not always easy.  We don't want to get into debates, or deal with other people's prejudices, so sometimes it is easier to just keep quiet.  I get it, I really do.  But if we are raising children in our communities who feel it is not only acceptable to torment and humiliate kids because of their sexual orientation, not just because they think it's wrong - but in some cases as some kind of sport! - then the village has failed.  We need to try harder.

Today, October 20, 2010, we are asked to wear and/or display purple in support of those youths who were so tragically pushed to their limits.  I hope as many of you who can will please do this today, and continue to show our support of those teens still here, still needing us, as often as you can.

Thank you
Kerry

Great Thanksgiving Aprons

It's almost that time of year!  The time when the kitchen smells of pumpkin pie and baked apples and spices.  When mom tries to get the biggest turkey she can find - and then tries to figure out how she's going to find a pan big enough and whether it will fit in the oven.

The time when family gathers to watch football games, either at the old high school or on TV.  When we remember what we are thankful for and we are mostly thankful to have each other.

This year, why not have (or give) a great apron!  You know you want one to keep all the turkey guts off you when you clean it out, and of course to keep the grease and other food stuff off your lovely Thanksgiving ensemble.  And those of you invited to go to the homes of friends and family, why not give one to the hostess as a gift to remember you year after year?

And if you're going to buy an apron, you don't want some boring plain one.  And you don't want some silly "Kiss the Cook" one.  Get a great Thanksgiving themed apron, or perhaps one with a vintage label for that nostalgia lover.

Here are some of the great designs available at KRW Designs (many of them available on shirt, custom US Postage and other items as well.)
