I was featured in a Treasury on Etsy!


What is a "Treasury" you ask? Well, if you're familiar with Etsy, then you probably know what the Treasury is all about. If not, I'll give you a brief description of what it is. Anyone who has an account on Etsy can curate a Treasury, they're hard to get because lots of people are waiting for one to expire so they can grab one. It is up to the curator to pick a theme for the treasury and to find items out of the thousands on Etsy to fill it up for others to view. These lists also have the potential to make the front page of Etsy. Having items featured on the Treasury is very flattering, and I have actually gotten sales from people who have never seen my shop before that way. I am actually working on a custom order for someone who saw my cloth rattle ball on this very Treasury! Thank you Artsyrubbish for featuring me in your list!

While I'm talking about treasuries, I snagged one of my own and featured some of my favorite baby/kid items on Etsy. I own some goodies from about half of these shops featured!

4th of July Favorites!

Happy 4th of July ya'll! I'll be blogging later about our family festivites, but for now I'd like to feature some fabulous shops on Etsy and their fabulous 4th of July creations!

This one is from my own shop, a red white and blue I Spy Bag! These I Spy Bags provide hours of entertainment for kids (and adults!) and are great for summer road trips! Please check my shop for more!



Look at these yummy red, white and blue popsicles! Don't they look so refreshing on a hot summer July day? No, wait a minute, those aren't popsicles, those are soap! This (anniepoo)shop has lots of amazing soap creations, I love it!

I just love this ceramic vase by Land o' Voz. Wouldn't this be cute as a centerpiece on your table! Fill it with a red white and blue bouquet, or flags, or both!
