Summer 2017 Nature & Wildlife Sampler Box

It’s time to feature some of my favorite summer images on some of my newest products in my quarterly Nature and Wildlife Sampler Box. Being quarterly makes the decisions even more difficult, but that means I have so much to offer.

I’m pleased with the idea of being able to give viewers an inexpensive sampling of what I sell. Shopping on the internet isn’t always easy, and for images and handmade goods, well, these are best seen in person. That leaves me with a very small audience, though. In the absence of being able to pick up and handle a gift item, or look at a painting of photograph from different angles at one of my displays that could fill a room, a small package of samples can help.

I’ve been happy with the reception of my Feline-themed Sampler Boxes since April 2016. Because I’ve always organized my nature and wildlife artwork in seasonal categories just to help me keep track of what I have and what I want to do, I publish the e-newsletter quarterly as well, and I think a quarterly sampler box, including an assortment of images and gift items that welcome the coming season, would be just about the right amount of things to share.

Nature and Wildlife Sampler Box contents for Summer 2017

Nature and Wildlife Sampler Boxes are distributed at about the same time as the e-newsletter, on the first day of the new season. Above is the selection of items for the Summer 2017 Sampler Box:

Each sampler box includes the following, and sometimes more:

  • a 5″ x 7″ or 8” x 10” print matted and ready to frame OR a small framed print, either an existing piece of artwork or a new one
  • an alternate print of any size, unmatted, different from the main print in media, style, subject, etc.
  • several greeting cards: a sympathy card, feline art card, feline photo card, non-feline greeting card and two or more note cards, current designs and new designs
  • a handmade or other gift item—a small keepsake box or a little art sampler book, a polymer clay or ceramic item, screen-printed dishtowel, tote bag, crocheted item or rubber stamp, new art paper, for instance—which is exclusive to box recipients and not shared with the public for a week or so after boxes are sent
  • the “boxes” are not boxes at all because they vary so much in content so they are carefully wrapped with wrapping paper made from my designs that you can reuse

These can be things your use for yourself or give as gifts or donation items to a fundraiser. Sometimes they’ll be little experiments and I’ll be asking for feedback. I’ll be happy that you get to see art you may have never noticed, and little handmade goods that work so much better in your hands than a photo on your computer.

Note that I also offer other Sampler Boxes:

  • to Animal Professionals with contents specific to the needs, customers and vendors of veterinary clinics, businesses that serve or cater to animals and animal-loving people, and rescues
  • to Retail and Wholesale customers who would like to resell my merchandise
  • to general feline and pets customers which would include feline artwork and merchandise along with a few dogs and other pets, wildlife and nature

Reviews and comments about my Feline-themed Sampler Boxes

Because most of the boxes ordered have been feline-themed that’s where the comments are, but it will give you an idea what people thing of the overall program.

Hey. Bernadette E. Kazmarski. You rock. I got my package today. So so love it. The sampler box was amazing. The sketch and water color were the very 2 I would pick for myself. I love them. The cards and ceramic piece are fantastic. If anybody was skeptical, don’t be. I received quality photos and sketches that I can admire on my walls for a long time. Thank You Bernadette, a very satisfied customer. I will be a repeat customer.

Just wanted to let you know that I *love* everything in my sampler.
It was such fun to open and discover each item. I am really glad I signed up for these.
Thank you!!

My box was fantastic! I would have been pleased with less……a great value.
