A look back at some fun treasuries :)

This past week I have gotten the chance to not only curate but be a part of wonderful treasuries on Etsy



Smack in the middle of the week, of course, was Halloween. I took some time out from sneaking fun-sized candy bars to create this fun Halloween-themed treasury:




It was so hard to pick a favorite from the bunch! Let's just say that ALL of the featured shops have many wonderful unique things that made me smile and go "oooo!"



I was also thrilled to be a part of a beautiful purple and green themed treasury, curated by Pam of MainelyDwyers



Here is the little cityscape ACEO that was among all the beautiful jewel-toned items:

Do we really only have 3 weeks left? Yep!

Yikes! Okay so I thought I had a really good head-start on my Christmas shopping, but I just peeked at the calendar and realized:

There are only three weeks until Christmas. Which means, for those of us that work full time, there are only 2 full weekends plus the crazy last-minute night-before-Christmas rush.

I've been doing shopping a little at a time, and so far I think I've done pretty well. Okay..well... I thought I did, at least :P

But...a look at the calendar and the realization that I still have people to buy for and NO idea what to get them is starting to make me panic a little.

So...I figure that a leisurely browse through some nifty handmade items might give me some ideas - in fact, today I bought myself a neat vintage bracelet:

I came across this great vintage "poker night" caddy - complete with chips and card from NeedfulNostalgia

that I think would be a fun gift for a guy. or... how about this Dog Treat Jar

from SymmetricalPottery? I know some dog lovers who would adore it!

I'm hoping in the next week or so to finalize my "wishlist" of things to buy for everyone. That way, the following weeks can be a little less stressful and I can maybe get some holiday baking done! Ohhh Christmas cookies! :)

Moving! :)

no - not to a new house... but to a new site! :)

I've put a blog up on my website. I'm still figuring out the little kinks here and there, because I'm not too good with formatting, etc., but I'd love for you to come check it out, and follow me (I think you have to click the little rss button)
