Weekly Special Buy 2 Get 1 on Earrings!

It's getting really close to Christmas. I say really close at this point because I am usually done shopping by Thanksgiving. So, with only 5 weeks to go I need to raise money for my Sub-for-Santa. Each week until right before Christmas I am going to try to go crazy with my specials. From today until November 21st it is buy two earrings, get a third free. This is really designed to help a bride get bridesmaid earrings or gifts for the bridal party or family members for Christmas. Check it out, it is a really good sale and it will hopefully help me raise enough money to make an amazing Christmas for a beautiful family with two georgous little girls. Best to all! Thanks for reading the blog!

Loving this Idea!


When I was married, I had a beautiful yellow and white rose bouquet. I hung it upside down to dry and then saved the rose buds in a dish I made. It was a nice reminder of my wedding day but sadly I dropped it when we were moving three years ago and the flowers went everywhere. I ended up dumping the whole thing in the trash (it was raining and they get all wet and gross). It was sad. So I am totally loving this idea: Claycraft Bouquets! All the beauty of real flowers but without the whole dying part. They last forever. There are several stores on Etsy that make them and they are all beautiful. This one is my favorite:

It's on my list for ideas for my vow renewal next fall!

New Week, New Special!

Last week was a bust. I didn't have a single customer use the promo code for last week. I'm thinking that I need a new approach, I'll figure that out later.

Tomorrow, my munchkin turns 3! That means I have been a mommy for 3 years, a Stay-At-Home-CEO for three years (can that go on my resume?), and a craft-aholic for... okay, my whole life but even more so in the last three years! I can't believe how time flies. Three years, two babies, and countless hours of missed sleep.

So for his birthday my Etsy shop special is Buy One Get One 50%. This is valid today, October 4th through October 10th and the promo "Happy Birthday Asher" must be in the "Message to the Seller" section of check-out. This is a great deal so get shopping!

New Ideas for Winter/Spring





I have been spending time in the studio brainstorming new designs for the upcoming seasons. I have several in the works, sketched or laid out on design boards and I can't wait to get them all done and photographed. I have a few new ones up already and a preview is above. Check back on Etsy for new designs regularly!

It's Official, I lost my wedding ring...

It has been two weeks from yesterday since I last saw my wedding ring. I have looked everywhere! I remember the last time I saw it, I took it off to go hiking with the family and left it on the kitchen counter. My baby girl, who is 18 months, loves rings and is constantly trying to get mine from me. I though she might have taken it but it's no where to be found. I'm devastated and broken hearted about it. It's like a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach.

Hopefully it doesn't make me sad but I think a way of cheering myself up is to offer a BOGO (Buy One Get One) Free on all rings in my shop. The code: BOGORING

Enter it in the "Message to the Seller" box at check-out on Etsy and a refund will be issued through Paypal. Same as everywhere else, the free ring must be of equal or lesser value.

Now I just have to sell like 200 rings and I can replace mine... (sigh)
