Didn't you say you work mainly in 'poplar'?

"The Poplar Princess"
"Artist in Aspen"
"Wonder Woman of Walnut"
"Outstanding Oak Objects"
"Wooden Wonders"

I tried!

Just a friendly tip for David and others. If you are thinking about domain names (web address) and aren't prepared to purchase it you don't really want to put it out there until you're ready to do so. There is an industry of people that go out and purchase them only to try and sell it to those that wanted it. At about $6-10 it costs them next to nothing to do so and could end up costing us big time.

Good Idea to purchase your 'domain name' even if you are not ready to set up your site!

As stated it is a regular industry out there buying up names just to sit on them and make money from others.

     I need to make up some cards. Mine will say "Rightarm's Woodhead Studio", and under that it will say "I've Got Wood". Dave
     P.S. I'm having some TiShirts made up like that also.  ;D

Cards are great most customers want one but very few use them to re-order, I make and print my own to keep the cost down and only do a few at a time as I change the wording as my range changes, the next one will have scroll work at the fore

I'm not selling on a website. I'm just going to sell by word of mouth.  Imnot doing it for profit. I'm donating to charity. I'd like to make alot of money to give to charity but i don't want to create more work with an online store to take care of.

I ordered cards from www.vistaprint.com.  I just ordered from the free ones and just paid for shipping.  When I get them I'll post a pic. 

Thanks for the input!

This is what I ordered... I found a way to get a picture.  Go to my site... it's on there - http://www.jwillem.webs.com/

The website I still need to update... but like I say on it, I'm not going to do a whole lot of work on it.  I'd rather work on the scroll saw  ;)

I think these should be fine to pass around.

Thanks Cherie for your help on the website.  I switched it over to my name instead of a "company"ish name.

In case anyone is wondering, I get 250 of them (I picked from the free ones) and just pay shipping.  But shipping is $5.67.  I ordered on 6/20 and should get by 7/12.  I paid for the cheapest shipping.

Thanks Sheila!  I didn't want to use a woodwork type of card even though that would probably be more appropriate.  It will mainly be coworkers, friends, and friends of friends that purchase from me.
