by

Hello JenEric Readers,

This year we’re making changes to the schedule of posts. Here’s what’s going to happen:

Monday

Éric Desmarais will randomly write things like an unspecified number of monkeys with typewriters… which is totally not how he writes his posts… *Shifty Eyes*

Tuesday

How I Taught My Dragon will post the results of the previous week with all the cute pictures of Dragon learning.

Wednesday

The Travelling TARDIS will continue it’s adventures in space, time, and backlogs.

Thursday

How I Taught My Dragon will post the plan for the next week of Draconic (but rarely draconian) learning.

Friday

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is logo.png

The monkeys Éric returns with serial stories, regular stories, rants, coffee info, and really whatever comes out of the typewriters… uhm mind, his mind.

Saturday

JenEric Movie Reviews continues to watch movies, over-analyse them, and tell you all about it.

Sunday

Unless 2021 ends up being as movie watching heavy as 2020, this will be left blank and let the monkeys, time machine, and Dragon rest.

Looks like another exciting year for JenEric Designs. Hope you enjoy it!

Hello Coffee lovers,

Today is the LAST DAY for Advent Calendar Orders.

We are extremely thankful and grateful for everyone’s enthusiasm over the Advent Calendars this year. We’ve sold more than last year without the bonus of having any conventions.

Poor Jen has had trouble getting the yarn and she’s been stressing about the baskets but, as always, she’s doing an amazing job!

We had to order extra bags and extra coffee which is awesome. The bags are taking their time unfortunately (Some sort of major turmoil going on in the USA) and will hopefully be in on time to package.

Here are the options for this year:

  • 24 Bags at 1oz each ($50)
  • 12 Bags at 2oz each ($50)
  • 24 Bags at 2oz each ($100)
Each Advent calendar will come packaged in one of the baskets and the 24 packet 2 oz will require 2.

This is a pre-order for our Advent Calendars. Flavours will be picked from our current selection and a few experimental flavours.

Pre-order deadline November 9th – Orders will shipped the week of the 23rd of November.

The Holiday Shopping List

by

Hello Fellow Small Business owners,

I’ve seen a lot of social media posts about how we should support small business. The problem with those posts is finding them again and getting more than just other business owners to look at them.

For that reason JenEric Designs and Creative Ottawa Nerds (CON) have teamed up to create a list of 30 Canadian artists and artisans that have something to offer for the holiday season.

Beyond the list, we will create a post each day in November that highlights one of the vendors.

For those of you that need holiday shopping ideas, keep an eye on this blog. The list will be up November 1st.

As more vendors join, we will add their logos to the banner.

For those of you that would like to participate please email us at JenEricDesigns (at) gmail.com Subject: Holiday Shopping List with the following information.

  • Business Name:
  • Business URL(s):
  • Description of your products/store:
  • Final Shipping Date for Holidays:
  • Sales or coupons:
  • Photos: 1 logo, 3-6 product pictures (each must be smaller than 2mb)

This will be first come first serve. We will accept a maximum of 30 vendors. No resellers.

There will be a $5 fee for being listed. All money collected will be used to boost a post on CON’s Facebook page promoting the list.

Thank you and I hope you have a happy and profitable holiday season!

JenEric Designs and CON
