And yes, you can get them in the online shop too! http://www.nortonscove.com
Let me introduce myself: I'm Janet Davis, an artist and entrepreneur living and working on the North side of Bonavista Bay, on the island of Newfoundland in Eastern Canada. There are many challenges to running a business here in my small rural hometown, and there are many wonderful benefits too. This blog is where I share some of those challenges and triumphs, and share what it's like to live in this part of the world.
In addition to printing cards, the other kind of paperwork, and thinking about other projects (which I’ll tell you about in another post), I’ve been tidying up around the shop and rearranging some displays. Here’s how this c.1890 Kean’s General Store is looking today…
Kath & Dave visited the other day, bought some Norton’s Cove Cards, and have framed them at home already! Here’s a great example of how to frame Norton’s Cove Mini-Prints! Don’t they look great? That’s my dad’ s Tug Point Vim at the top, Caplin at the top left, Puffins at top right, Dory and Humpback on the bottom, all in black ink.
I love seeing how my artworks look in their new homes. Thank you for sharing, Kath & Dave!
I’ve had quite a few visitors over the past couple of days- I love meeting new people and hearing about where they’re from: California, Australia, Montreal, even the crowd from ‘town’! {If the crowd from Australia are reading this, please contact me- shipping problem to talk to you about}
I’ll be printing cards for the next week or so- cleaning the black ink off now to start in on the yellow and yellow-red rainbow roll. I’d love to show you how it’s done- stop in for a chat!
Black Friday Cyber Monday is a big deal with shoppers these days, even here in little old Newfoundland. You can read up on what BFCM is here if you’re wondering where this marketing terminology came from.
My friends over at http://www.justacard.org have come up with an alternative to Black Friday, aiming at supporting independent businesses and artisans, Indie Friday. And I’m jumping on board that bandwagon.
…so on Indie Friday, I’ll be offering up a sale on my Norton’s Cove Cards, Mini-Prints, framed Mini-Prints, and Bookmarks. Just use the code IndieFriday at the checkout to save 40% on your purchase. This sale applies both online and in-store.
