Oh the joys of Thursday....Many of my friends are marketers and designers from all over the globe. Each has found their own niche, their own specialty... and from each I have learned a great deal. So today's
Thursday Thirteen is all about the fun things I've discovered from the great people I know...
From the view of a shirt: Each of these designs are just one teeeeeeeny facet of the offerings by each designer...
1.
The baby catcher.. what a fabulous job to have! I think it was Bill Cosby who made the joke about labor and delivery with Johnny Bench waiting for big catch... I hear this fun
t-shirt design makes the perfect gift for our favorite baby docs and mid-wives, and I have to completely agree.

Materni-tee.com and available in a variety of men's and women's styles.
2. 
"My Parents did IVF and now all they can afford is this lousy t-shirt."
HAHA, ain't that the truth! Many of my friends over the years have either gone through IVF or at least researched it as an option. More and more families are "being born" as a result of this medical opportunity. All I have to say is.. YAY for the babies!

3. 
Get out your garden gear and get ready to Hoe! Hoe! Hoe!I grew up working in my grandmother's gardens.. veggies, fruits, flowers...(weeds weeds weeds). Playing in the dirt has always been a favorite past time of mine.

I've been told in honor or a fabulous man... a Commodore says: Because I Said So
I'm pretty sure I've heard that line at least 500 gazillion times, and proud to admit I think I've now said it myself at least 1/2 that many. How fun would it be to not say a word and still say BECAUSE I SAID SO... get the shirt :D

5. 
"Come to the Dark Side... We have Cookies"
It's always all about the cookies (or brownies or cake or ice cream.. or lollies...) HA! I absolutely love this shirt... I was show this design with the simple comment of "Here's one that makes us all smile", I laughed and then 5 minutes later, laughed again. My son thinks I'm crazy.

6. 
The Gizzmo cat, a reallly cool airbrush design (yeah, seriously, airbrushed not a photo!)... And I've been told this specific design was what started it all for a woman I'd consider a fabulousl merchant.

Eyeballs on a niche: I am surrounded by so many talented people... the following are nichers haha.. they have a special little corner of special-ness thats just so darn special. :D
7. Genealogy for YOU, just when you needed the perfect gift, along comes a shop that literally relates to family ties. Genealogy Gifts, what a cool concept, dontcha think?
8. Love the Troops, a gift shop full of gobs and gobs of fantastic Patriotic, Military and US Pride gifts. owned and operated by an Amry wife, you're sure to find inside humor, love and support for any member of the armed forces. ... my new personal favorite:
Sexually deprived for your freedom
9. JamieCo Designs is filled with glbt visibility & inclusion t-shirts and gifts. There's a huge selection of superb designs to show off your pride in who you are! (BONUS.. there's also some really cool tribal tattoo images).
Quotes and Muses: I communicate with all of these folk through various mailing lists, and ever now and then someone says something that gets dog-earred in my head.
10. "Don't ever stop believing........ Never get tired of watching you, someday you will break through....." - Every time I read this signature quote, it grabs me by surprise and I find myself stopping to remember we dream dreamy dreams for a reason.
Great words from Jembie Creations
11. "Ladies and Grunts, I give you ... Lickitees! " -- YUMMMY.. a fun new way to promote the tasty tees we'd love to wear.
12. "Irrational Designs Consumables... Products of a Disordered Mind". I think this must be my husband's mental twin... Wear your Irrationality :D
Me....
13. During this short quest to come up with a new fun and festive Thursday Thirteen topic, I was able to find out pretty little twinkling of new light about a few people. The interests other's have and the quirks in personalities all make up the fun finds in my every day! :D
