Little bit of this and that September 23, 2011

I love treasuries on Etsy, and I like sharing the ones I like right here on my blog. Sometimes, yes, I am included within.

Today’s treasury is by PearlesPainting and includes my spotted owl mug hugger. She makes lovely unique hand painted items, you should take a moment to check out her shop.

Penny Art by WishUponAPenny September 17, 2011

What are they worth these days? A penny.. they can be found at the bottom of your purse, on your countertop, at the bottom of your drive through coffee change compartement of your car, perhaps you even have a full jar of them at home. These days people just don't do anything with their pennies.

Until I fell upon Wish Upon a Penny on Etsy. I was surfing my Activity, checking out a cute studio, then I checked out their faves and found this. How cute is this? Penny art necklaces. Brilliant. Use those pennies, gift them and give them a new use (or value). 

 

My everyday love affair July 5, 2011

No not Ben Affleck… my other obsession 'Joe'

Seriously, what were you thinking??

 

Raspberry Delight June 30, 2011

I love treasuries. It never fails to astound me the sheer amount of talent on Etsy and other indie artisans marketplaces. This treasury ‘raspberry delight’ is so beautiful and diverse and pieced together by Diane of PatchworkMountain.

Diane makes such beautiful quilts – you should check them out.

Its just that kind of day…

Ok.. so everyday. How do you shake it when you feel so extremely tired? I feel like I’m sleep walking through my days and passing out so early in the evening. I need to re-energize and spend some quality time with my family & husband. What do you do to recapture some energy?

Treasured – Orange & Aqua: a Twitter Spawned Treasury June 29, 2011

Yesterday @stockannette sent out a tweet looking for Etsy items of orange & aqua. She ended up piecing together a beautiful and original treasury.  Many thanks for including my mug hugger.

Shop is Open! June 28, 2011

Wow, I'm so happy that the Canada Post strike/lock out is finally over. Living without mail for weeks has been scary, and also very inconvenient for a small business who relies soley on the mail for deliveries.

I had to shut my shops down for a few weeks in order not to leave all my fabulous customers in limbo.

In order to celebrate I'm offering 20% off all week & holiday weekend by using coupon code:

So go ahead & get your shop on..
