gyniphr-n-stefuni is on vacation starting the moment this entry posts through 8:00 a.m. on Monday January 7th 2008.
I received an email yesterday from Brandie, comment #25 & winner of our first ever bloggy giveaway.
Jennifer,
I am so excited that you picked my name! This is awesome. As I said in the comment, I would never guess those were pens! You do such amazing work! They are gorgeous. That said, I’m going to pass on this. You see, my name was chosen for 5 giveaways! And I just feel bad claiming 5 prizes when so many other people put their names in the hat. And I would feel bad if 5 of the prizes went to little old me. So that said, I hope that you pick someone else’s name to spread the love out a little more to other people! And I did thank you on my blog (here: http://journeyof1000stitches.blogspot.com/2007/11/overwhelm ed.html ) and I really am sad to pass on those gorgeous pens ::sigh::: I even had a spot for them to sit on my kitchen counter, but it just feels wrong to win so much!
Anyway, thank you again! Have a great day! =)
Brandie

thank you for your continued patronage.
* i’m having a difficult time getting the code to work for the categories and archives to be visible. it seems that both of these would be in the stylesheet but i am unable to determine what exactly i need to change to a different color as it seems that both are displaying in the exact same color as the lower half of the screen. ::sighs:: well, i’m off to bed to ponder the corrections that must be made as well as dream of unicorns and furry rabbits… or some such. goodnight all. this brief diatribe added at 1130p east coast time.
i came up with a new tagline recently that i think fits gyniphr-n-stefuni creations to a tee - functional expressions of beauty - this tagline applies to our current products as well as to several new items we have recently introduced and to all new items that we will introduce in the future.
our flower pens are functional and beautiful. the same can be said for the scarves and other knit products that stefuni produces by hand.
all items that gyniphr-n-stefuni creates will fit this tagline. a couple of new products are the chloe bib by oma and the opa sock sweater line for small dogs. several chloe bibs are currently listed on etsy and the opa sock sweaters will debut on etsy very soon as we are currently building inventory in this item.
i’m busy updating the blog and my new apartment. we moved in on the 26th and still have a few boxes to unpack but the majority is done.
i will be posting to etsy and ebay to this week as well as creating a few special halloween items for you to decorate your home with or give as gifts!
also with the idea of a pink october… i have a multitude of pink flower pens that will featured in my etsy shop this month.
I’m moving to Georgia on September 24th 2007 - I am not accepting custom orders at this time. Please contact me @ gyniphr[at]gmail[dot]com, if you are interested in a specific item currently listed on etsy or ebay. I will not be shipping any items until November 5th 2007.
hi,
yes, i am in the process of a big move but i am still available for custom orders. i also am offering great deals on items in my inventory reduction sale process! i have an overabundance of BIC pen lids. i know many crafters are using the lids for a variety of projects and i have several pounds worth of this particular craft supply.
thank you for your business.

last month, i received a custom order request. i will ship 70 of these rubber ducky pens to their intended destination in approximately one week. i believe these pens are going to be used at a baby shower. isn’t that just the cutest thing? rubber ducky pens function both as decoration and as party favors.

I listed multiple lots of flowers at below wholesale prices on both ebay and etsy. I accept payment via PayPal.Check out my ebay store: http://stores.ebay.com/gyniphr-n-stefuni-a-gift-shop
Check out my etsy store: http://gyniphr.etsy.com

i need to search my files and find when i first did this with my custom pens. i certainly didn’t see it in a magazine before i attempted it. i saw a really cute toothbrush stand and thought that it would be the perfect complement to my “spa” pens.
*searching for information*
it seems that i first blogged about the spa pens on November 12, 2005. I know I had the toothbrush holders at that point.
oh, well… i guess a good thought is a good thought & it doesn’t truly matter who came up with the idea first. does it?
well, have i got a deal for you…
I have 100 over-sized pink mums (6.5 inches in diameter) that would be so precious decorating a baby girl’s baby shower.
I have 50 over-sized baby blue mums (6.5 inches in diameter) that could sweetly adorn a baby boy’s baby shower.
Shabby chic yet ever so lush, these flowers are gorgeous! I have the flowers listed both on ebay and etsy, so the first one to purchase this fabulous selection wins! This deal is better than wholesale due to the fact that I’m moving in 30 days!
