The curioussofa.com new favicon

Do you know what a Favicon is? Some of you techies do. It is that little icon that shows up in the title bar of a website you are at. More likely than not, it is a company logo but if you do not design and load your own favicon for your personal website, the web server, host or program you are in will use theirs for you. My website has never had one which annoyed me too death as it used to be an ugly insignia from my e-commerce program so I finally designed this little Betsy Ross flag to be my own personal Favicon (I am sure someone else is using this flag too somewhere on the web) but this was just right for Curious Sofa.

New facebook header
 I also like to redesign my Facebook header every month to coincide with the seasons or merchandise I might be selling. Now that we are into a new year, I decided to replace my headers with this one above. I recently designed this as a new business card and also a thank you card for all my website purchases.

My new bookmark size business card
The back of the business card. So helpful with all the info that is needed now.
The new postcard with every purchase at curioussofa.com
