Yey for Tuesday!!

Hi everyone!
Happy Tuesday! Thank God Monday is over and done with! haha.
I hope everyone had a nice weekend. I got to visit my boyfriend for a fews days, so that made me happy. :) This next weekend, I'm home, and hopefully getting all of my etsy chores done. I just started to fill out the Seller's Worksheet from Etsy, and man, is that gonna be some hard work!! If you sell on Etsy, it's a good tool to use to get your costs and profit straight! I still don't even know if I'm making any money yet, haha. I'll add the link to the end of this post if you would like to use it!
I would like to figure out if it is worth it to do another craft show. My first show was last October. It might have been a good one, but it was freezing cold and rainy that day. And ontop of it, it was in a shore town, so not many people showed up. I would like to do another one sometime, but I have to finish calculating everything first. Fun times. :)
I'm still getting some orders together for some Valentine's Day gifts, so I better go! I leave you with a few of my favorite "lovable" items from my shop! Enjoy!



Lavender Scented Cuddle Bear

Valentine Birdie Sachets

Valentine's Day is near.....


Hi all!!

I hope you all had a great week! I've been so busy since the last time I posted! I spent a well rested weekend at the boyfriends house last weekend, had a solid week at work, then got the sweat kicked out of me at a hip hop class yesterday with my best friend! :) All in all, it's been a good couple days.

Ever since my last post about the heart treasury, I can't get Valentine's Day out of my head. Even though I don't consider myself a hopeless romantic, Valentine's Day is one of my favorite, smaller, holidays. Yes, I am a huge fan of pink and love and hearts, so, maybe that as something to do with it. :) Since my last post, I created some new sachets for my shop. As you see in the first picture above, I made a few that focused on Valentine's Day! I have posted them already in my shop in addition to lowering my domestic shipping prices too!

As the week goes on, I have a few more mini-rectangular sachets that I will be posting in a variety of different colors and patterns. I also have a sewing set which will include a linen sachet with a mini emery filled pincushion. I'm so excited! I hope you like them all!!

My next post will hopefully be about the many uses of my Little Birdie Sachets.

Talk to you all later!

Mmmm....treasure!

Hi everyone!

How are all of you? Happy 2009!! I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to the new year! I started out the year with 3 sales, so I'm happy, haha.

Yesterday's stall of the treasury caused a LARGE number of new treasuries to be created since everyone was waiting for so long! Luckily, as I scrolled through after the damage had been done, I found another Philly Etsy Team treasury! Go Philly!


(Click on the treasury to visit the real one!)

This beautiful treasury was created by Boto Designs! Check out her site! I'm so glad my *NEW* Birdie Sachets made it! Yey!

This treasury will expire on January 9 at 1am! Visit soon!!

New Birdies Big Debut!!



Good afternoon everyone!

I finally got the chance to post my new birdie sachets on my etsy website yesterday! I'm so excited! I love the fabric and patterns that I bought for them. They are so much fun to make and I'm so happy with the sales of my purple ones.


Hopefully these new colors will brighten up your day like they did mine.
In the near future, I will have a post about these little birdies and all you can do with them! Stop by my shop and pick out your favorite one!
