Not for me or Sting, but for Beedums.

He has been working full-time on getting his woodworking/craft/home decor/repurposed wood things business up and running.

One of his venues is this:

woodenaht.etsy.com

Great time to buy christmas or hanukkah gifts.

Also, if you have any ideas of what he might make that could be a best seller - post it here or send it through the etsy store.

Not shameless. It was very thoughtful of you.

His work is very lovely.

Last time I looked in, there were very few selections. This is much better!

Well done, FoodDude.

He doesn't have his computer any more. I have offered to be his computer until he gets it all back up and running.

I registered him here, with his instructions.

I added products to his store, with his help.

This is a great time to sell gifts, so I hope esty gets the foot traffic.

Holy cow!!! Did he quit his day job?

I dint think of that until you said he dint have a puter anymore.

Holy cow!!!

All rightie, then. I don't have to feel like an abandoned minion any more. Good luck to Beedums in his new bidness.

Wishing beedums well and looking forward to buying stuff.

He did.

Big move.

Very exciting and scary and all that goes along with that.

He is doing some wholesale to local stores, some consignment and mostly the craft shows are done for the season. Next up is working on his own website, which requires his own computer first.

There is a market for his stuff. Finding that market is the interesting part.

I told him that he needs work on the care and feeding of minions. He said "I'll endeavor to improve."

Whatever that means.

Great!

If you have any ideas of what he can make, that would be great too!

Yes indeedy. My Pittsburgh SIL's next door neighbors have their great room filled with similar items. They were so similar, I thought they must be Beedums's, but I described it all to him and he said No.

SF, where are you from originally? If you use the term "great room", I'm betting someplace in the South.

Didn't mean to lead anybody astray -- I used it here only because Pea and SIL use it. I've lived in CO my entire life and never heard of a great room until I married into SteelersFanFamily.

Bird houses.

Or cat houses.

Or possum houses.

While I'm not advocating a knock off of Skippy's catalogue, maybe some items that are just a little bit naughty and suggestive. Not risque or vulgar, just naughty funny. In a bad pony kind of way.

Ah, that explains it. Do you also have a "bedroom suit"?

No, that one makes me flinch, especially when I hear it on the radio. The only time I actually complain to the station is about surnames -- for example, when they say Vigil (as in candlelight vigil) instead of VEEhill or VeHILL.
