Making these "one-of-a-kind" Christmas Wreaths. Loved the shotgun shell light strings and thought that they would be fun for a hunters mantle. Thirty-six shot gun shell lights adorn each wreath. They measure 28" x 28"and require plug in electricity.
I recently found a resource for fresh Pecans, so I ordered them. The box arrived yesterday and when I opened it, the soft fragrance of pecans wafted up and enveloped me is a sense of nostalgia for homemade pralines and pecan pie. I have packed them in 1# bags and am...
I was a business major, worked in Corporate Finance for many years and thought that I had a pretty good handle on how to run a small business. I was wrong. Conceptually ok, perhaps, I just underestimated the magnitude of energy. Business school doesn’t really...
Recently, a good customer came into the store to ship a box he purchased, several years ago, at flea market. The box contained about 20 military medals of a paratrooper earned during the Viet Nam War. The customer, a retired law enforcement officer, had during the...
I did not know how prices had increased until recently when I ordered shipping box inventory replenishment. Rate increases in January and April resulted in a 30% increase in the cost of a shipping box just from last December. Then earlier this week, I looked at the...
At market recently, I found this little product that is ingenious. It is an absorbent material that fits your car’s cup holder. So when your bottle water condenses, the moisture won’t rust your pennies. What adds to the utility is the picture of your favorite dog...
Earlier this week, a lady came in and inquired about shipping a laptop to an African country. I suggested that she also investigate the postal system in the country and customs or duty on an electronic device as some countries require an internal ministry / office to...
A lot of new customers come to us via Google for Notary services. At Nasa Postal, we always have a Notary available. Notaries authenticate the signer’s identity. Texas law limits the scope of services. Texas also restricts the identity documents that may be used...
I realized that I have stored old, old family photos which date back to the late 1800’s in a box, in the hall closet. With so many homes around me damaged during Harvey, I could have lost all that family history. Knowing that I have a resource to have these scanned to...
Here we are, Harvey Day 2. Saturday, August 26, 2017 As with all Hurricanes, better safe than sorry. You get prepared and wait. Being prepared also means a trip to the library for a couple of good books, in case I can’t get there for a couple of weeks. Every potential...
A Business is more than printing a business card. You have an idea and you want to make it a business. Great! Yes, you need a name that characterizes the product or service; yes, you need a business card and website. Also necessary is a DBA (Doing Business As)...
Yesterday I was reminded of the value of having a private mail box. We were googling for a good bakery with rustic yeast dough and remembered a bakery that perhaps had relocated. The address was a residence. Apparently the owner has closed the retail location and...
