{{{{{Drum Roll}}}}} The ETSY SITE IS FINALLY OPEN FOR BIZ!!!


Prairie Smoke Gallery is finally up and running, peeps! Lordy, what a project that's been—so not as easy as I thought it'd be, but I'm hoping I'll be a quick study, that the whole process will get easier and faster as we go . . .

Right now, I have only six items listed, six gorgeous collections of cards of Bob's photography (blank inside), each with a different "theme." Each collection includes six cards and envelopes, all printed on premium quality photographic paper and mounted on gorgeous, textured recycled card stock, each card signed by our gifted photographer himself! If you were at Bob's benefit in February, these card collections are similar to what were auctioned off there.

The collections are:
Orchids
Wildlife
Sun Scenes
Nature Scenes
Fog Scenes
Bugs!

As I said, there is only one of each set so far—this is a huge learning experience for me, so please be patient . . . I have the site set up through PayPal, and for sake of ease and simplicity, that is the only way we will accept payments at this time. Obviously, I can't devote a huge amount of time
on this gig now, but hope to get the system "streamlined" somewhat, so printing and assembling the cards goes quicker.

I've posted "sneak peek" pics of some of the collections for your viewing pleasure here! In time, I hope to add more collections, maybe play around with creating sets specifically for framing, offer different size prints. . . who knows? Stay tuned. . .

A quick Bob update: things still remain stable, mellow . . .we did get out a few times this past week, just for quick errand runs, and did have some visitors—cousins of Bob's from Mankato, Bob's good pal, Paulie, and a few of my family members here and there. . . even though Bob sleeps much of the day, I know it's great for his spirits to see and visit with friends and family. . .

Anyhow, it's getting late, and I should help Bob to bed. Just wanted to get the word out about Prairie Smoke Gallery . . . thank you in advance for checking it out! xxooxxo LOVE! to all! j

  1. I will be posting my order shortly. Everything looks gorgeous! How to choose, no kidding! Although maybe I just need to have all of them... And of course, good to hear the updates as well. Take care! If you need menial assistance with cards or anything, just drop a line for volunteers and put me on the top of the list! Carol

  2. Love the photos, Nennia and Bubo. I'll wait to order and let others get them first, BUT, if they wait too long, I'm nabbing a set or two or four. If one will snooze, she or he risks that she or he will lose...out on some beautiful cards signed by Bob.

    Love you two to the moon. SO great to see you both Sunday. See you both again soon. Hugs and kisses to you and Bubo and the doggies.
