A month or so back I wrote about my little two year old's adoration of all things equine. He can spot a horse from a quarter mile, and he seems to find every book on the shelf which features a horse, and implores me read it to him. And as the doting parent I am, I do so happily.
Here are three horse theme promotional items for the cowboys, ranchers and horse lovers at work or at play:
Horse Bender
Moseez Horse Stuffed Animal
Horse Stress Ball
A blog primarily about promotional products, branded apparel and advertising specialties, but also some of my simple joys, observations and thoughts about life, family and business.

Two Legendary Metal Forges
I was reading yesterday on the Advertising Specialty Institute ASI website when I came across an article in the Mergers & Acquisitions section which announced Wendell August Forge's purchase of Old Forge Metals, Inc., the terms being undisclosed.
Apparently, Wendell Forge has come back after a very trying period, as their headquarters burned about a year ago.
I was a little familiar with Old Forge Metals. Years ago, early in my promotional products career, I sold a series of 100 very high end fully custom chess sets with pewter playing pieces on a marble chess board and custom pewter corner pieces to Tahitian Noni International. I can't remember which supplier I used. If it was not Old Forge Metals - they were at least among the various suppliers that I researched when I was bidding the job.
The article piqued my interest, and I browsed the respective websites of Old Forge and Wendell August Forge. They both do stunning, inspiring work.
As just a small example, check out this Common Ground Alliance award exquisitely crafted for only the highest honors.

$10,000 Houses From Trash?!
I came across a news article on Dan Phillips today - an inspiring and quirky home builder in Texas who builds whimsical homes from 80% plus reclaimed and recycled products in the $10k to $50k range. He runs the for-profit Phoenix Commotion initiative. His work is simply an inspiration. This man understands the value of a dollar. More importantly, he understands the value of a human being, and how to scale a dream to the dreamer.

Solid Bamboo Cutting Board
Giant bamboo are the largest members of grass family. These mind boggling plants can grow 39 centimeters in the right soil and in the right climate in a single day. Unlike trees they do not narrow as they climb skyward, but instead push into the blue in a regal columnar fashion. I've always been fascinated with bamboo, and if it didn't spread so uncontrollably, I think it would be cool to grow.
Bamboo is a wonderful renewable resource, and many housewares, and home construction materials and decor are constructed from bamboo.
If you are looking for a sincere bamboo cutting board to promote your business or organization, this laser engraved bamboo cutting board is an easy choice. It is generously sized, with beautiful contrasting color and expert laser engraving.
