Twitter Tuesday!

Today's blog is to feature the Etsy Twitter Team's Shop of the Week! Sumiko Shop



The shop features a lot of great jewelry and hair pins! This owl and tree necklace is one of my favorite pieces from the shop, but there's much more to choose from :) Like this awesome Red Tree Pouch that is fully lined inside! So take a moment and browse through Sumiko Shop, I'm sure you'll find something you'll love!

Monday Musings

So, it's raining yet again here in Massachusetts! I believe we had 3 total days in June that had "more sun than clouds". Seriously, enough already, please! And all of those rainy days aren't including April or May (when we usually have rain here!)

So, because it's raining again, I have begun working on some new items for my Etsy Shop! I will be introducing a new eco-friendly line of cards that I'm very excited about! The cards and envelopes are 100% recycled material, and the company that makes them uses wind power as well (more about that later). Also, I will be offering checkbook covers as well as some other items.

I really just want the rain to stop so I can get out of the house and play with my camera, work in the yard, get more of my veggies planted, etc.... but for now, I'm stuck inside so I may as well be productive. I look forward to sharing my new goodies with everyone soon :)

Sunday Sampler

My Sunday Sampler for today is this adorable tote bag by BuggaLove from Etsy! "Promote With a Tote". A lovely tote bag personalized with your shop information! What a great idea to help advertise your shop as you are out shopping! I need to get me one very soon...as soon as I get Nicolas to come up with a design for me :) I don't have enough totes for shopping yet, so these will be perfect!

Here is the item description :
This listing is for a lightweight, 15"x16", natural colored tote bag. This tote will personalized on ONE side with your logo, shop name, website, banner, tagline or any other promotional feature!

Any colors can be used! Logo, banner, etc. must be provided in jpeg format. I have many fonts to choose from. We will communicate frequently as you share your vision for your promotional tote and I fulfill that vision for you!

These totes can be used around town to promote your website or Etsy shop or as giveaways at craft fairs and festivals. They are a great way to get your brand out into the world.

The design shown has been "washed out" intentionally on the bag. Bright colors will come out bright! Please feel free to browse my tote bag section for color examples!

Starting over!

OK, so I'm a very bad blogger I'll admit it! I hadn't touched my blog in months, until today that is! I spent the morning deleting almost every old post so I could start from scratch. My goal is to keep up with it this time...we shall see... I have high hopes :)

I'm hoping to do daily themes, that way, I will have something to shoot for each week! My thoughts at the moment for themes are:

Sunday Sampler-Showcasing samples from shops I adore from Etsy & Artfire

Monday Musings- Just random :)

Twitter Tuesday- Posts about the Etsy Twitter Team's Shop of the Week!

Wordless Wednesday- A favorite photo from the week (not necessarily mine!)

3 For Thursday- 3 of my favorite articles, photos, blogs, quotes, etc. from the week

Friday's Find- This could be anything from a great article to a great deal!

Silent Saturday- I'm usually too exhausted from work & want to spend time with the family so I'm thinking my Saturdays will be silent here on the blog :)

OK, so there you have it! I've posted for all to see, now you all need to keep me on my toes so I stay on top of it. (Pretty please? With sugar on top?)

One other request...if you would like to be featured in the Sunday Sampler please let me know! Now I'm off to start my first Sunday Sampler, hope you enjoy it :)
