I love Fiestaware - and so should you!

Here's my latest Treasury! Look at some of the fabulous Fiesta items to be found on Etsy!


And looky here, my Sneaky pal jj put my funny holiday tags in this Treasury! Yes, that is Santa in a bumper car! My friend Bryan sent me that card - and that's one of the reasons I love making those gift tags: instead of throwing out this greeting card, it can be used as a Christmas tag! Yay!

Treasury Madness!

It's just going to be easier for me to provide links so you can see all this for yourself. Ready?

Fellow Sneaker justjanesthings has put my holiday gift tags in a red hot Treasury.

InALather, who's on the INCrowdteam with me, has put my orange and black Halloween hat in a very autumnal Treasury West.

Then here's my Treasury West. Oh, and the Drive-In Treasury I made, which you already know about.

Go forth! Love! Click! Shop!

Big day!

C. might be having a baby right now, and all I'm doing is sitting here, waiting for S. to get out of a meeting so we can go have sushi for lunch.

I'm trying to figure out the most appealing main photo setup for my gift tags. I listed one new set of cat gift tags this morning, and a different one just now. Also, I just checked my shop hearts, and I have 94! I'm thinking of sending my 100th heart a "thanks for being my 100th heart - you get [either 25 % off... or ... free shipping on] an item from my shop" message, to celebrate. Thoughts?

New listing!

As I am painfully aware, not many people are buying knit items in June (did you hear the heat index near here is supposed to get up around 100 degrees today?), so I've been making gift tags out of old greeting cards (this latest batch is thanks to my best friend Kevin), and listing them on Etsy, just in case people would love to buy something from me but do not need to be warming themselves up! Here's my latest. It took every ounce of restraint I had not to title the set and this blog entry Let's Hear It For the Boy!

Tag - you're it!

Okay, I just wanted a catchy little title for when I give you a sneak peek of the gift tags I'm listing on Etsy tomorrow (plus a cute-but-unused shot of one of the birthday tags I put up yesterday).

Stay tuned, darlings! Coming soon: tag sets featuring men, cats, dogs, flowers, and more!

Why am I up at 7:30???

Could it be that I am excited about showing the world some awesome jewelry? Check out this morning's INCrowdteam Interview with CASEmethod! I can hardly wait for you to see her beautiful work!

I'm going to go make coffee while I wait for the comments to pour in on the Team blog.

In other news, more darling recycled/upcycled gift tags are in the works here. I've just got to scan/photograph and list 'em!

Edited to add: here's a link to the first new set of tags.
