FROSTY COLLARS

PUT THE FROST ON THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER

I have worked in a hot kitchen for the past twenty-two years. I know what it’s like to be hot and miserable.

Last summer, I couldn’t help but notice, my dog was looking the way I felt at work; hot and miserable! I decided to try my chefs cooling collar on her, and sure enough, it worked. I spent the next several months researching, gathering materials, and working to develop a cooling collar just for pets. After a lot of trial and error and countless hours little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS were born.

FROSTY COLLARS are a non toxic water based cooling collar for your dog. Each collar is handmade in the USA of high quality fabric, durable nylon, and strong plastic clasps. Every FROSTY COLLAR is ajustable, so your pet is sure to have a comfortable fit.  little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS  are easy to use, simply toss them in the freezer bag and pop it in the freezer. In an hour or two it will be ready for your dog to enjoy. FROSTY COLLARS will provide cooling comfort for up to two hours.

Going for a walk in the mid-day sun? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Playing in the back yard with the children? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Relaxing on the front porch? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Young or old, large or small, FROSTY COLLARS will keep your hot dog feeling cold. Try a little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS today.

Get Your LOCAL Web Business Featured Here: Todays Feature – Give Your iPod Wood!

I am sure everyone is aware of ETSY, Ebay & others. Etsy is a great online marketplace site for everyone to sell hand crafted items, paintings, jewelry, etc. Here at GMG we love to feature local businesses in town, but what about folks who live local and market their products worldwide? Well, we feature them too. I am fond of this because most of the time they have another full time job and use this forum to feed their entrepreneurial spirit. If you live locally send us your ETSY site or other web business and we’ll feature it here on Monday at 5PM EST.

I also love ETSY because it is great for any husband who suffers from a condition known as ability to listen to their wife (over 50 million Americans suffer from this). With ETSY you only have to get one key word from the conversation and not hand over the credit card for her to purchase her own gift. Here is my example – Wife was interested in a Jewelry with kids initials. Searched initial jewelry and bang… I found Jeneri Jewelry. She built an amazing custom order for me at a price that is unmatched elsewhere. Wife was incredibly happy! Here is the first feature.

Dinsmore’s  Workshop – Wood Ipod Cases!

Web site: http://www.etsy.com/shop/mjdinsmore

Mr. Dinsmore works all day in Boston and then heads to his Hamilton home and down to his workshop. How does he take his frustration out after a long commute? By creating awesome 100% hand crafted iPod/iPhone cases & stands. In many of the pictures you can see his design sketches and he is currently  working on iPad stands. I think that is a great idea since the iPad is quickly becoming the showcase magazine rack replacement for your living room.

Taken from his site:

These cases and stands have been featured on television, print and popular websites. From CNN, Washington Post, Boston Weekly Dig  and in many popular websites — including: Gizmodo; Apartment Therapy; ThinkTechno; Mighty Goods and more. They make a great and unique present!

Dinsmore’s Workshop makes original wood iPod and iPhone cases and stands. Don’t choose imitators and copy cats! We use salvaged or sustainable harvested lumber for our eco-friendly products.

So check out MJDinsmore’s site and help support a local guy who was first in this line of high end custom iPod accessories. My social circles have allowed me to run into him from time to time and he is a wealth of knowledge, always smiling and is an all around good guy.

Send me (ryanpjm1@gmail.com) a link and some details on your local web business and we will post here.

Thanks – Patrick
