“Make and Take Anytime” project – Pocket Hugs!
These Pocket Hugs make great gifts for someone special! Come down to the shop and pick out one or two, color/paint them and use glue dots to add them to the cute cards. The card says, “Hold this tight and know I care, even when I can’t be there”. Price is $3 per Pocket Hug, or 4 for $10. Open Tue-Friday, 10-3 and Saturday 10-1
Look at the cuties that have arrived in the shop! These are full-size Hershey bars wrapped and adorable with their little hats and scarves. Available in either blue or pink, as shown. If you aren’t local, we can ship! Come see us Wed-Fri this week, 10-3 or message click HERE to order online.
Our first Make and Take of 2022 will be a Heart Tic Tac Toe. You’ll be able to color/decorate and assemble this fun Tic Tac Toe! We’ll have a variety of backgrounds and color options to choose from, so you can make it your own!
As many of you know, I will be having open heart surgery in May to repair a birth defect that didn’t get fixed during my first surgery 45 years ago.
We’re expecting Allan and I will have at least one month with no income as I recover, while having additional costs with the surgery and week long hospital stay in Omaha, and medical bills.
While I’m waiting for surgery, I’m not supposed to be working too hard, but thankfully designing is not too strenuous. And so…I’ve been designing! I’m excited to debut “The Heart Collection” (see what I did there?), with Prayer/Gratitude Journals, vinyl stickers, wood signs. Still in design mode are encouragement cards.
This collection is something I’ve been brainstorming and thinking about for months, and finally getting to design the new products over the last few weeks has been so fun AND therapeutic.
“The Heart Collection” is the first of at least three new series of products I’ll be releasing in 2023, and every sale will help with my Heart Surgery fund. If you can help by sharing my Facebook page, Instagram, and sales pages, I would appreciate it more than I can say. My hope is that these products can be used to encourage others and bring glory to God, while also helping us get through what’s coming!
Come make a Turkey Barn Quilt. This is such a fun take on a barn quilt, and it can be displayed in your living room (instead of the side of your house or barn!) This event is 2 hours long because of the amount of time you might need to paint all the pieces of the quilt. If you can, feel free to plan for extra time. The colors shown are just an example – we’ll have a variety of paint colors available for you to use!
If you can’t make it for the Make and Take event, you can purchase the kit here: DIY Turkey Barn Quilt OR come to the Delight Design shop at 516 N Grant to purchase!
Well, 2020 is almost over and I’m a little sad I wasn’t able to complete very many items on my “to do” list for Delight Design. But, 2020 was what it was, with a lot of stress, anxiety, and everyone-at-home-time which didn’t lend itself to creativity. In addition to that, we dealt with some pretty serious health issues. Thankfully our family is coming out the other side of the health stuff and now that Christmas is over and we’re looking at a new year in just a couple of days, I’m taking a big breath and tackling the long overdue list in a fresh and hopeful way.
SO! I’m so excited to be adding new journal and planner designs to Amazon. Earlier this year, I designed several new Prayer Journals for Laura at Heavenly Homemakers. These five designs are currently available for purchase on Amazon and I’m working on adding Daily Planners to match!
A couple of them show the inside, but not all five do, so here’s a quick look at the simple inside design:
I love designing more than most anything else, and am hoping to get busy with a variety of new collections and themes for 2021. I’ll be adding new stickers and favors to the shop, as well as listing all the new items on zazzle, red bubble, amazon and more! Happy New Year!
