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.

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?

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:

GONEPOSTAL

 

So go ahead & get your shop on..

That's right, despite the postal strike my Artfire shop has now reopened! 

 

Join me in celebrating by checking out my deals of the day – continuing all through the week. 

 

Today's amazing deal is a ChocoDot Coffee Sleeve for ONLY $3

 

Shop Update June 2, 2011

Sadly my friends I have placed both my Etsy & Artfire shops on vacation mode. Canada Post appears to be striking for an unforseen amount of time.

When postal service is back up and running Boutique Karma will be holding a special customer appreciation salewith cool daily deals for a week.

My Coffee Profile May 21, 2011

I LOVE coffee. You already knew that didn't you? Admit it, if you are reading this you probably love coffee also. However, for as much as I love coffee, I really don't know all that much about the different types of beans, roasts, intensities, etc. I just know what I like when I sip it. 

I came accross this cool coffee profile link on Facebook the other day and it actually was pretty spot on. Its by Van Houtte, which I find make delicious coffee (although a tad outside of my bulk coffee bean budget).

check it out and let me know what you found out about your caffeinated taste buds.

Earth Day FREE Shipping April 22, 2011

Did I say FREE Shipping? Oh yes I didi! Today only, for Earth Day, I'll be picking up the Canada Post tab and shipping any coffee sleeve to you. I'm helping you make the switch from the old carboard slippy sleeve or double cupping. Check out my selection and I'm sure you'll find one that will suit your style.

How are you celebrating Earth Day this year? Are you making any changes? Driving less? Using less power?

Enjoy!
