Our shops are lacking listings, our blog has been silent, yet we are not idle.  On the contrary, we have been busy learning new crafts, experimenting, and brainstorming.  Spring seems to push us into new ideas, and new ventures, but not ALL ideas are equal.  In my last “What’s Up” post I promised to share something new and exciting I was working on.  Well, I can tell you, that bright idea is RIP in the trash.  I have now found something that I am truly enjoying, and after some fine tuning, and a little more practice, I will be listing something new.  I promise!

Rachel is busy conjuring up witty little expressions, and graphics for her buttons.  My personal favorites are the  ”I’m a Proud Green Being” and “LOL“. I proudly wear the “Green Being” button on my favorite hoodie.  Who can resist a pinback button that speaks for you?  I can’t!

Since Spring and cleaning seem to go hand in hand, we have a clearance sale going on and items are reduced 40% to 50% off!  This is your chance to get the item you have keeping an eye on.  Spring gets me excited, motivated and inspired.  It’s funny how it inspires so much activity, even cleaning!  A new camera for my birthday, and sunshine, gives me hope for better product photos. Spring inspires all crafters and artists, as I have seen from many FB friends reflecting the beauty of Spring!  Below are just a few Spring inspirations that caught my eye recently.  I know there are many more, but can only share a few on this post.

We feel that by moving these products out, we are pushing ourselves to move forward and make room for NEW products, so please stop in and take advantage of our great deals!

Many items have been marked down up to HALF OFF and can be found in the Clearance section of our shops.

New and exciting Spring items will be listed soon, so there’s more to look forward to in the coming weeks. Enjoy the sunshine and thanks so much for all of your wonderful support!

This week I have dug up some “sizzlin sales” in the Etsy shops that are sure to dazzle!

There’s nothing like a great sale to inspire guilt free shopping. I love it when my favorite things go on sale, or when items that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford are suddenly within my reach. I feel so good after I purchase something on sale! I confidently show my husband, and excitedly say “Honey, look what I bought!….and it was on SALE! What a deal, huh?” There is nothing left for him to say, so he just smiles.

These are just a few of my favorite sales.
Have fun exploring, and I hope you find a special treasure.

Etsy Shops: Thank you!

I’m so excited to share them with you. I may have bumped up my usual 8 to 12, but what do you expect when there is “destashing” going on, if you know what I mean :)

By the way, most photos have been cropped square by me to allow a clean and *pretty* posting. These photos link to the artist and crafter’s original photos.
