Mommy's an Easter Chick

This cute Easter shirt with a picture of a baby chick and colorful Easter egg is perfect for Easter for those with a sense of humor. Is your Mommy an Easter Chick? What IS an Easter Chick?

Easter eggs, chicks, and mommies are part of many of our memories. And my mom WAS an Easter chick. She was born right around Easter.

If Mommy's an Easter chick — what does that make me??

Best Selling St. Patrick's Day Design

What is the best selling of my St. Patrick's Day designs? Check out the title/link above -- "Daddy is a leprechaun and so am I" that is the best seller. There are also a few pictures further down in this blog.

Several people have purchased more than one of these, as if they are outfitting a group or family. There have even been a few sales to individuals in Ireland, so that is a pretty good seal of approval as far as I am concerned!

All my design for shirts, hats, and other keepsakes for St. Patrick's Day try to convey the magic of the Irish spirit and avoid stereotypes of spirits from the bottle!

See all the designs!

We pulled together a custom set of candidate hats for each of these folks: Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, Mitt Romney, Dick Cheney, Barack Obama, Rudy Giuliani, John McCain and Bill Richardson.

Chase the Winter Away!

So winter is getting a little bit weary now?...We all remember asking for a touch of snow and cold but enough is enough!

One sure way to chase away winter is to think of the warm weather. That could be summer, easter, sunsets, or whatever makes you happy! Now, to hold that happy-warm thought how about a t-shirt or other item imprinted with an image to help hold that idea! Check out the CommodoresLocker.com for a good place to start brightening your wardrobe and disposition!

Easter Is Time for the Bunny and Chocolate

From Easter bunnies to chocolate and chickens, the religious symbols of Easter often are celebrated as if they are as important as Easter itself.

This cute Easter chicken and the decorated Easter egg are symbolic or rebirth, renewal, new starts and hope. Who wouldn't want to celebrate those things!! And Easter is the religious source of such positive ideas.

This Easter you can promote positive and hopeful thoughts and also look very tuned in to the season with one of these Easter shirts.

Bust Out the Shamrocks

One of the reasons people enjoy celebrating St. Patrick's Day is that it is a signal that spring is coming and winter is soon to be a memory. It is no coincidence that green is the color associated with St. Patrick's Day! Or that we also refer to the day as a time of "wearin' of the green."

So come celebrate the coming of spring, the wearing of the green, and St. Patrick's day with this shamrock adorned SHIRT. We also have matching HATS, MAGNETS and OTHER KEEPSAKES with this earthy shamrock design. If you prefer another kind or color of shirt with this design, CHECK THIS OUT.

"Designated" Leprechaun


It is not too early to find that "designated" leprechaun for your St. Patrick's Day festivities. Bestowing this shirt on someone invokes their inner leprechaun and makes them officially a designated leprechaun for as long as they wear the shirt!

A designated leprechaun can be a designated driver, a designated mischief maker, a designated pal or party goer. We do know that everyone loves knowing there is a little bit of leprechaun in their bones! So grab one of these nifty leprechaun SHIRTS or a designated leprechaun KEEPSAKE for yourself or a special someone who needs to be officially designated for St. Patrick's Day. It is not too early to begin the planning!

Daddy Is a Leprechaun

Everyone loves knowing there is a little bit of leprechaun in their bones! How else can we explain some of the behavior that we exhibit but cannot explain.

After years of research we have found one explanation for unreasonable behavior! And the answer is simply that "Daddy's a leprechaun and I am too." With this excuse it seems anything is possible. The Commodore's research staff has discovered there is a genetic aspect to behavior that can be traced back to leprechaun genes which appear in the DNA of those afflicted with leprechaun syndrome. One key finding of recent studies is that the leprechaun gene appears in all nationalities and ethnic groups currently on earth.

We await St. Patrick's day and the wearin' of the green this year with our new-found knowledge proclaiming that "Daddy is a leprechaun and I am too!" join in the fun and celebrate your leprechaun genes this St. Patrick's day by snatching up a SHIRT or KEEPSAKE proclaiming your green leprechaun heritage.

Valentine's & St. Patrick's Day Coming!

The is no need to feel overwhelmed with desolation just because it is winter, the leaves are gone from the trees, the singing birds have departed, your vehicle is filthy. Cheer yourself up with a nifty new t-shirt for Valentine's Day or for St. Patrick's Day! And while you are at it, get one for your favorite sweetheart ofr leprechaun, too! These bright shirts, caps, totes and other gift items will bring smiles to everyone who sees them.

Heart and warm sayings adorn the Valentine's items, while shamrocks, leprechauns, pots of gold and loads of blarney make St. Patrick's Day a celebration for Irish and non-Irish everywhere. Celebrate your settie or celebrate your roots in Ireland or the contributions the Irish have made to our world by "wearin' of the green" -- but do take time to enjoy yourself!

Yes, it is true that gramps used to say he and his pals took a few non-Irish folks to city hall on St. Patrick's Day. Supposedly they became honorary Irish with a swish of green paint added to their posteriors! These days we can do all that with a t-shirt, how nice!

Surprise Best Seller, "Do the Needful" Mousepad

Do the Needful MousepadThere is often a big surprise when something unexpected sells well. And this year is no exception to that! We were asked to create a mug with the saying "Do the Needful" for a workgroup whose jobs are slowing bleeding to another unnamed country. This fun mug was a rallying point for those workers and added a bit of fun to their shakey job prospects.

They bought some mugs. Other people saw the mugs online and asked for mousepads with the same phrase. We made mousepads. Then t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, tote bags and heck, even baby bibs and outfits.

There are serious "Do the Needful" designs and humorous ones. Some are silly and colorful like this one and others are sedate. But "Do the Needful" is striking a note with people from many different places and this is an indication of what is on the minds of many people at their workplaces.

Baby, infant and toddler gift ideas

Baby Bibs and ClothesIs there any easy way to buy a holiday gift for a baby? What if the baby is the neighbor, a boss's kid, the extended-family toddler? One way to get that child to start looking "cool" is to give a colorful bib and matching t-shirt or creeper! Colorful toys, sailboats, windsurfers, and lighthouses are not your typical baby designs! But they will bring smiles all who see them on that little one. The t-shirts and one-piece outfits come in white, blue or pink. The Only think you need to know is that pink is for girls and blue is for boys. But you already knew that!

Of course you can browse our products and find other designs for baby gear, too. How about a "Do the Needful" t-shirt for baby?? Isn't that perfect?!?!

Shopping Places and Ideas

There is still time to beat the rush and worry about shipping online purchases for the holidays. Here are some ideas for you weary shoppers.

For small items you can use for most anyone, check out Edgewater Gallery -- it is a site with nautical themed items like cards, small note books, posters and more. Many artists and photographers are featured and all were selected by Commodore Lehane for their great nautical artwork which covers several media. Who wouldn't like a sunset image or lighthouse picture on cards or a notebook??

For an upscale gift for home or office consider a custom framed print. You can select an image of a favorite place or pastime or perhaps something more abstract. The Commodore's own gallery is one place to start. This very cool site lets you choose mats and frames and see the actual result before you order. How cool is that for a very personal gift!!

Need something for that hard-to-buy-for Aunt? Check out the floral designs which include flowers on mugs, pillows, gift boxes, cards, carry bags, etc. She'll think you were so thoughtful!!

So those were the easy ones! What do you get a baby? An inlaw, a relative, the neighbor kid, or the child of the boss? We've got you covered there, too! How about a very cool infant or toddler t-shirt?!? Baby shirts can be cute or serious and they can also be pink, blue or white. So perhaps a few of these onhand will glide you safely through the holidays as long as you keep pink for the gals and blue for the little dudes! Or, buy white and be safe no matter what!

Boston's Aura, Future City

Eerie and yet familiar buildings puncture the bubbling sky in this futuristic image depicting Boston. The buildings are familiar and yet different. The sky is a combination of swirling winds and menacing clouds. Is this the current or future Boston? Is it just the aura of the city? Who knows. We love the stark crisp lines of the buildings in contrast with the prominent hefty clouds. Who knew Boston' waterfront could be the stuff of science fiction!

This image is available with hundreds of mat and frame combinations in a range of sizes and print media. If you love art, check this out!

Sunset in the City

Sweeping bold strokes of sunset contrast with the solid shapes of the city at twilight. Boston's distinctive waterfront was a perfect setting for this image. The artwork began with a photograph of a marvelous sunset and then computer art tools were used to smooth and create a paint-like effect in the sky. We love the contrast between the freeform and colorful sky and the dark and structured look of the buildings. The original photograph was taken from a boat in Boston harbor at 7:30 pm on a July night.

Click on the print to try it with hundreds of different mats and frames. Or you can purchase it as a print or even have it printed on canvas. Any way you want, we know you will enjoy "Sunset in the City."

Nubble Light

Here's one example of how photography and computer art can work together to create a wonderful framed print. The frame and mat contribute to the sense of enduring steadfastness witnessed by the lighthouse at Cape Neddick in Maine. The image began as a photograph and was enhanced to stress the ruggedness of the rocks and the simplicity of the lighthouse itself. There is an aura of Americana about this print which seems to have aspects of pen and ink and paint in its heritage.

Click on the print to try it with hundreds of different mats and frames. Or you can purchase it as a print or even have it printed on canvas. Any way you want, we know you will enjoy Nubble Light! Everyone loves lighthouses and lighthouse prints make fantastic gifts!
