Undiscovered Shop o'the Week 1/31 - 2/7

I lead an Etsy team called Team Discovery. Our team is dedicated to finding and promoting fresh, undiscovered shops with less than 20 sales. A new tradition I've started on the team is an Undiscovered Shop o'the Week. Each week we feature a different undiscovered shop and include them in treasuries. All week long. Our goal is to get them noticed, get them discovered, and get them some sales!

This week our undiscovered shop is TheTinyBlackbird.
TheTinyBlackbird is Jordan, a self-taught photographer. Stop by, show some love, and let 'em know waterwaif sent you. Here are some of my favorites:

Dancing with Myself 5x7

The Runaway 8x10

Winter Meets Flower 5x7

I Heart the Beach

I Heart the Beach by Bunderful

Forgive me but I had to..

I NEVER post jokes. Ever.
But this made me giggle.
I've seen it around for years and I ALWAYS giggle. 
So I have to share.








The Husband Store


A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates: You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!


So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: 

Floor 1 - These Men Have Jobs 

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign says:

Floor 2 - These mMn Have Jobs & Love Kids
"That's nice," she thinks, "but I want more." So she continues to ascend. The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These Men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking
"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going up. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads: 

Floor 4 - These Men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework

"Oh my god"' she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!" Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads: 

Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak. 

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads: 

Floor 6 - You are visitor 153,671,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.





PLEASE NOTE: 

To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a new Wives Store just across the street. 

The first floor has wives that love sex. 

The second floor has wives that love sex, have their own money, and like beer. 

The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

New Obsession

First of all, I have a Keurig coffeemaker that I am obsessed with but anyone who owns one will not be surprised to hear that.

Second of all, every day is an amazing adventure in my coffee cup as I try new coffee. Today's amazing adventure quickly became a new obsession.

I give you:
