I think I am going to have to move to a larger size tile. Apparently, all suppliers are doing away with the 4 x 4 size tiles that are solid, sturdy, frost proof PEI 5.  That just stinks!  But what can you do??? I am trying out a porcelain thru body 6 x 6 tile.  They are a monster to drill through...but, that just means they will not crack or freak out in frozen winters up north! I sell the majority of my address tiles to people up north...so this is an important factor to me!

I am having a day! Today I went to pick up my normal supply of tiles I use for addresses, weddings, coasters...and they are not available....they are all gone...there are no more going to be produced ever again.

I am crushed and now I am on a hunt for a new supplier! Bummer!

...to be continued....

I am shipping these little beauties out in the morning. A large wedding of 30 tables all painted to match the wedding invites. This is going to be a lovely Mexican themed wedding!

These are a few address tiles just completed. I love the different styles that people request. I think it is pretty neat that my little tiles are out there jazzing up homes!

This set of Garden Party Tiles did receive an outline of teal blue.  This is the picture I sent the customer before hand -to ask what color outline they'd like.

I thought it would be nice to show the process of making one of my Memory Heart Illustrations. 

This was just completed for a family in the UK. 

Society6 is a great little site.  And to be honest ...I have no recollection of how I found it- I just know that I am so happy I did!

They have great printing capabilities...the art prints and full of color and quality!

Now they have introduced Throw Pillows and Tote Bags!

So cute...this little painting is so cheery I just don't know if I want to part with it!

I have a few more little canvas' in this size. They are 4 x 12 x 1.5 inches. I see a cute series of Tuscan landscapes in my future!

I have completed the warm Spanish tile set to go to Canada! They turned out so bright and should be a nice site in the cold -white winters up north!

I did two decorative end pieces, as the customers have a frame for 5 tiles from their previous address set...done in all white. This should be a nice change for them!

This is a set I am working on for a couple in Canada. They requested that the tiles be red...and other warm colors- as it gets dreadfully cold  and lacking color in the winter.  They have a lovely Torii gate painted chinese red...and I think these will look so bright and happy on their fence.

I have just finished 3 sets of home address tiles for Etsy customers. They look great- don't they!

These will be shipped out on Friday! Stay tuned for more tiles soon...I have a bunch I am working on this weekend!
