Loving all the mint/aqua this season!

Last week I thumbed through the new spring fashion mags and yesterday I took a stroll through the mall and I gotta say, I am LOVING all of the mint and aqua. It's long been a favorite color of mine (as is teal which I was happy about seeing last year) and one I love working with.

Here are some things I'm selling in a couple different price points that are perfect for a fresh, minty spring!

My Very First Etsy Treasury!

And of course it's ocean-themed.

It expires on Sunday morning so check it out while you still can!

Here is the link for it, and from what I understand, the more unique clicks and views the treasury and each item in it gets, the better chance it has to make it to Etsy's front page!

Tempt Me Tuesday!

Time for me to dig into my favorites list and my wish list and see what I can tempt you guys with!

The Dawn of Time by elgarbo


Goddess Hands with Hydrangea by Photogenic Gallery



Turquoise noodle bowl by Oneclaybead


Rustic Green Man by RiverOtterRustic




All of these listed above can be found on Etsy, one of my favorite websites in the world. Etsy is FULL of artists and artisans and people who have taken the pledge to buy handmade. The detail and the dedication you find there is awe-inspiring and once you've discovered it and bought something, you will never be satisfied with mass-produced Wal-Mart crap again.

Tempt Me Tuesday!

I am all about temptation. And anticipation. I heart things, add them to my favorites, drool over them, and dream about them in the hopes that one day I will sell enough to be able to buy them. Here are a couple of my latest drool-worthy daydream inspirers:

Feature Friday: Artesia Products

Today I am starting a brand new tradition. Feature Friday!
For my very first Feature Friday I am going to feature Marie from Artesia Products.


Artesia has a wonderful shop on Etsy and provides fresh natural skincare products handmade from our Earth's plants and minerals. She donates 10% of her gross sales to Water 1st International. By buying from Artesia, you're making our world a cleaner, better-smelling place in more ways than one!


She is also debuting Bath Bliss! Bath Bliss is a powder that you can add to running water that will fill your tub with bubbles, and blossoms, and balloons, and boys. Okay, maybe I made up a few of those. You can read about Bath Bliss in Artesia's own words on her blog here.


Here are a couple of my favorites from her shop:














You can browse other natural bath & body items at: http://www.ArtesiaProducts.com.
