My First Etsy Treasury



I just couldn't believe it. Just sitting at the computer looking through Etsys' treasuries. I had just popped onto the forum when a thread came up saying treasury low. I just had to go back. I should have been getting ready for work. Couldn't resist waiting and then it came, that little box. YAHOO. My first Etsy treasury. 30 minutes is all I had to get this set up and get ready for work.
Here is the link to my treasury ......

I am so excited. I hope someone gets a sale.

The Bag Ladies

Sorry about the title just couldn't help it. I so have a soft spot for bags, bags and more bags. I can't seem to be able to resist shoes either.

Just look at these 2 adorable bags. How I have contained myself I do not know!! :-) These ladies both have stores on www.etsy.com .

These bags both have romantic in the descriptions. I totally agree. And so feminine. Just think of yourself out on a Spring morning with one of these on your shoulder.

The larger picture is a Pretty Romantic Shabby and Chic Tote. It is made from Laura Ashley and Rachel Ashwell fabric.

The smaller bag is described as Romantic Hearts Mini Messenger. Made from cotton and lined with a lightweight batting.

Just click on the descriptions to link yourself to their Etsy shops. Handbags are just the start, check out the other items in theses stores. Hopefully someone in my family may see these and put them away for Xmas. Wishing!

Just Listed/Relisted on My Etsy Shop





Just listed these items on my Etsy shop . http://www.beadsme.etsy.com/

Had to re do some pictures and tidy it up. Trying to get ready for Valentines Day. I have spent so much time promoting over the past few weeks that I haven't had chance to make anything new.

What a week for rain

I must add a small comment here about the Australian weather (well New South Wales). As I have only been through 3 summers this is wettest. What they call a shower here would be classed as torrential rain in th UK. It has done nothing but non stop rain for at least 3 days now. We have small floods accross the roads and have had to empty the pool a little before it started overflowing. We are also on tank water which means this is our supply of water and this has overflowed too....what a waste of water. At least the grass has stayed green this year.

I done it

Wow I am just getting used to this blog. I can't believe I have just added an Etsy mini. I wish there was a book to help me do this. I noticed that the local college did a course on starting your blog, maybe I should attend.

What a day

I must admit today is a nightmare of a day here in Oz. There is so much rain and has been this Spring/Summer. I know it is much needed here but can get too much LOL.
I keep looking at my website and it is very quiet at the moment.
