Happy Halloween!!

I was watching the Phoenix Coyotes game and was finally inspired to carve our pumpkin! They won 4-1, so I guess I made a good choice! Here it is!

CIC Street Team! and 50% off BOGO soaps!

So, I might be overdoing it, but I joined another etsy team! I am now on the etsy East Valley Artisans team, Team AWBAR, and the Crafting in Color Street Team. So far everything is working out and I am able to contribute to all of them.

I guess after I got home last night and fell asleep because I was so tired, a bunch of my soaps expired on etsy. I am slowly renewing them in small batches. The BOGO 50% off soap sale is STILL going, so please hop on over to my shop and stock up now!

Off to the day job :-( See ya later! Leave me some comment love!

Preparing for a Busy Weekend!

I am hurriedly trying to get all my stuff together for this weekend's markets! I went to Goodwill and found some super-cheap display things to put my items in/on:


I spray painted this black to hang my necklaces on!



My owl minis are ready to go!



So are all my soaps!

I also felt in the mood to make some cute, simple little hand-stamped note cards. I made a little owl stamp that looks like my owl minis, and stamped some cards for my shop. I think I am going to give away one free hand stamped card to each of my next ten orders! I am getting close to 100 sales on etsy, so I feel like giving a little something away. I think people might like the little owl cards.

Well, now I have to print some signage for the markets! Thanks for reading and don't forget to vote on my poll! (It's up in the top right corner of the blog!)

Come See BirdWatching this Weekend!

I am going to be out at TWO different events this weekend! It's going to be a busy weekend. I am getting all my stuff ready tonight because I am excited!

I am bringing different items this time, so please stop by! I am bringing:

* My whole inventory of soaps (they are expiring on etsy soon, so buy some and save me
the hassle of relisting! hehe)

*My whole inventory of Owl Mini Burddies

*Scrabble tile pendants/necklaces

*Magnets

*Zipper pouches/Halloween Wristlets (ok, so a few things might be the same as last time)

*Wall Decor/Art

I will probably be bringing more items to the Local Artist Market on Sunday than I will to the MACFest on Saturday, because on that day I will have to share a booth with two other people. Saturday I should have soaps, owls, and necklaces for sure, and Sunday I will have all of it, hopefully! Please visit my website for info on how you can attend the MACFest, the Local Artist Market, or both! I'd love to see you there!
