So, I've been tweeting quite a bit about my upcoming 2-week fair preparations...found out about it kinda last minute and I've been working like a mad woman to have "enough" stuff. Just what enough is I don't know, but I figure I better have enough to actually turn a profit! Wanted to share these incredibly cute handmade promo mini lunch sacks...celestefrittata's shop is one of the many reasons I adore the etsy community. She's making 50 of these sacks for me to send home with customers the many, many goodies I will sell at the fair! Above is a little peek at what I've been creating...now, off to make more stuff like cupcake toppers and scrapbooking supplies!

Friday Faves on Etsy Day

Spent a few days at Myrtle Beach and still have the sun, sand and surf on my mind! If you share my love for all things BEACHY, you will get lost in all of the wonderful HANDMADE beach-themed art on Etsy. If you haven't heard, Etsy is the VIRTUAL MARKETPLACE of choice for thousands of indie artists worldwide. So take a break from twittering, plurking, facebooking etc. and get over to ETSY!

Poetically Speaking

I was inspired to write a little poetry today! In honor of National Poetry Month, an awesome Etsymom, Daisycreekdesigns, posted the weekly promo theme asking us to promote other Etsymoms with a poem. I got such a kick out of it I decided to post my promo here!!! Alright, my poetry might not be that great, but these shops sure are!

Take time to enjoy the morning sun

Happy Easter!

What a wonderful Easter! We just arrived home from our Easter program at church and dinner with friends...boy can she cook! I baked Nana's peach cobbler and it didn't turn out too bad! Hope your Easter was just as special...God bless.

Today I want to give props to my sister paper crafters! While some might not consider paper crafting an art form, I truly believe it takes an artistic eye to create works as beautiful as these. Which one is your fave?

Friday Faves!

Check my blog out every Friday to see the new Etsy shops I've hearted during the week. You never know, your shop could be one of my favorites! This week I'm in search of the perfect tutu for my new little bambina. I want something different from a traditional Easter dress and look at all of the fabulous choices! Now, I just need to decide if I want full-on color or something a little more subtle...which is your Friday fave?
