Its So Very Cheri 2 OUR FAVORITE THINGS was created to showcase the talents of both Ken and Cheri Peoples and who knows, we may have some special additions from the G-force (otherwise known as our 4 adorable kids). Ken enjoys time with his children, teaching them a variety of new skills. He has a background in sales management. He was a sales rep for a high tech photography lab-gaining the knowledge of true color coding, as well as working as a sales rep in advertising. He recently finished courses for computer programming and is currently finishing up classes to get his PMP certification. He is looking forward to getting his resume out and getting back into the work force, enjoying his career path, rather than studying in all of his spare time.

Cheri has a background in interior decorating, and before children worked in marketing and sales training management. She is the mother of 4, home schools the 2 oldest children as well as her motherly/wife duties-basically, you name it, she does it---WELL, she doesn't change the oil and she doesn't do the yard work. Ken and the boys enjoy that time together mowing, edging and working with motorized machinery that makes noise.

Its So Very Cheri will also feature some items of her parents. Her father is a retired artist with a background in advertising and then worked and retired from Hallmark Cards. He continues to do art in his spare time. Her mother enjoys photography as well. They are the proud grandparents of the 6 most amazing grand kids ever.

Since OUR FAVORITE THINGS are not limited to only our family, we would like to have special debuts where we show other things that meet our standard of excellence. It might be a company that makes an amazing BBQ sauce (and we know BBQ. We are from KC and they have some amazing BBQ places), or it could be someone who wrote a book. It might be a game system, kitchen appliance, or special craft tool that makes projects so much easier OR it could be a special product hand made by YOU. If you would like us to take a look at your product, give a review of it and feature it on Its So Very Cheri 2 contact Cheri at cheri.peoples@live.com If you would like to donate a 2nd item as a GIVE AWAY, we will offer it on Its So Very Cheri and link people back over here to take a look at what we are showcasing and how to get in touch with you to purchase your products. We will be fair and honest about the products we put on here. If the product involves children we will have our children (ages 2, 4, 11 & 12) use the products and give their opinions, as well. We are looking into podcasting so you can see the items in a video review rather than just pictures.

If you would like to have your company featured, please send an e-mail to Cheri at cheri.peoples@live.com

Continue to check back as we will continue to add additional items and I'm sure we will have additional welcomes and updates.

Mother Robin's Nest
Cheri created this nest using vintage papers. Each egg is hand painted so no 2 are alike. She also makes each tag and the mother bird is hand drawn. There are vintage styled tags with each child's names/ The price includes up to 4 eggs and tags to represent each of your children. Please specify the spelling of each child's name and if you only have one child specify if that child is a boy or girl so I add the correct bird tag. Each additional egg with name tag is $3.75

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This plate was purchased from an antique vendor. Cheri embellished the plate with shells and a reef knot, khaki and white paint with a sea side blue paint spelling out BEACH. This is perfect for any home or room decorated in a Beach theme. This is a one of a kind item.

(Hey, I can say that, 4 of them are mine and I'm writing this.) Have you ever seen photos taken by 2 different people, in the same area but the shots looks totally different? It's amazing how different photos can look and what one person sees compared to another.

Please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery. If you could look through Barb's lens this is what you would see.

Argus Studio Art

2009-07-17T14:31:00.009-04:00

We are excited to present to you another part of our vision for It's So Very Cheri. It is our desire to offer great pieces that are beautiful and affordable.

The first pieces we are presenting are those of Cheri's father, Argus Childers. Argus remembers, the first time he picked up a pencil and drew something, around 2 years of age, and that he wanted to draw for the rest of his life. Argus graduated with an art degree and worked in the advertising field before moving his family to the Kansas City area, where he began his career at Hallmark Cards. He stayed at Hallmark until his retirement a few years ago. He still continues to do art in his spare time-WHAT, spare time, you say-he's retired. Oh, he means when he's not playing with his grandchildren or fishing.

Each piece of Argus Studio Art, will be numbered and signed. The "pen and ink" drawings will have a limited run of 100. Want a better look? Just click on the photo and it will enlarge the picture. The size of the piece is listed directly under that piece of art work. Each of Argus' pieces are $25. Shipping is $7 and is sent priority mail. So, "if you care enough to buy the very best" and want to know how to purchase a piece, just click on the button below that picture. Your art work will come to you without the It's So Very Cheri watermark stamp, on the art. Please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery. Florida residents will need to add a 6% tax. Contact me for a price including the tax.
