When Did I Become Such a Joiner?

Posted in check it out, tagged , , on 11.30.2008 | 1 Comment »

It all started with pesky Thing-A-Day 2 last February.  Ever since I joined that experiment I have become a more happy and fulfilled person who explores creative interests and gets out to meet people with similar interests.  Weird.
Today I joined The {New New} York Street Team, an Etsy street team that is comprised of a [...]

Back-to-School!

Posted in adventures, braindump, etsy, jewelry, tagged , , on 11.29.2008 | Leave a Comment »

One thing about me is that I love school.  By that I mean, I am a good student (if I do say so myself) and I learn a lot in the classroom setting.  I have my Masters and have considered getting an additional degree but the thought of traditional homework makes me whimper.
That said, I [...]

I was talking about what I needed to provide at my upcoming private trunk show (my first, if you will). I mentioned I would need elegant hand mirrors, and D. said “Oh, pretty-lady mirrors.” I said, “Yes.”

Announcing a Black Friday Through Cyber Monday Promotion at The Craftarium

Thanksgiving is right around the corner which means that holiday shopping season is upon us!  Yikes.  I have bought approximately one holiday gift so far… a webcam… I cannot make a webcam and my in-laws require one for Skype calls with Wee-One.
Anyhow, in the spirit of avoiding the crowds on Black Friday, I am offering [...]

Pretty-Me-Up for the Holidays

Posted in Uncategorized on 11.21.2008 | 7 Comments »

Oh plain white boxes, this look just won’t do for the holidays. You are sturdy and shiny but you need something more. Something that says “party!”
How about something vintage?

Or how about less denominational and more whimsy?

I finally added a bracelet to my shop. I have been test-driving this design for over a week to make sure it can take the beating that bracelets take. It turns out that it can!
Last Sunday I found myself in the emergency room.  I am fine, but my problem is real and it [...]

Words Elude Me

Posted in braindump on 11.07.2008 | Leave a Comment »

As you may have noticed, I have been short on blog posts lately.  I have been distracted and I have not been working on any new or exciting projects – hence no posts.
So please pardon my relative silence.  Keep me in your feed reader and I will be back and posting soon. (Nothing says craft [...]
