Summer Vacation and Blogging How I Miss Thee

Ok, maybe a little dramatic lots of activity for me, none of which is blogging.  Summer vacation has started and four days in I have the feeling I am not the master of my destiny...well time anyway.  This combined with getting ready for Plymouth Art In The Park has kept me busy and away from blogging, though I think about it and have some ideas I just cannot find the time to put down.

Really Plymouth prep has me completely consumed...well it has, I finally feel as though I have enough stock to take having JUST this week reached 1000, yes that is ONE THOUSAND items made.  I will note I still have the stuff I am not fond of making still to do, like large totes so really some of these loose ends like the totes, list takers, e-readers and crayon rolls still to come. 

Tomorrow is the annual neighbor hood garage sale which I am reluctantly doing - again giving away more time, since it is mainly me doing all the work.  I am however going to use this opportunity to set up the tent and play around with displays and finalize my layout and get ready to make a few purchases...so that is sort of keeping me going, though the thought of un-storing and dragging out a thousand items seems challenging in the 90 degree heat we have been having in Michigan.

Anyway I am around but not blogging and thought while I am at it share some lovely treasury features.

Weekend Treasury Features

January 2012 Treasury Features

SNS October 15th

I joined in the SNS for this week, my first time literally in years. Of course on etsy now there is no promotional forums so there is an SNS team, which I joined a while back.

During SNS there is an opportunity to chat and visit with other shops having sales and since this new team there are lots of shops making treasury lists featuring fellow SNS sellers.

I made this one, starting by adding those shops that included an item from my shop.



And here are a few my creations were featured in to share as well.
