BTW my last post isnt the FEATURED items post

just wanted to let those know that are checking for updates, Im still working on todays BROWN blog, the previous post was just something on my mind, not the BIG post. Check back later today for that post!

Beth

well a new day starts today!

Man I shouldnt stayed up so late last night! Oh well, a little too late to think about that now! I've been chatting with a few Etsians on the Etsy boards, and they have shown me some great things to feature for them today! Todays color choice is BROWN! Brown is a gorgeous color, dontcha think? I especially love brown and pink together. I will have to look up what brown stands for. You know, like people say red makes you hungry, blue calms you, ect. Wonder what brown does??
If anybody knows, please post it for us all to see! OH and always, please support your fellow etsians! I dont have a lot of extra cash right now, but I am going to find SOMETHING to buy today. I want Etsy to do good, and prosper, to become the new EBAY for all the crafting community! A surefire way to make sure that happens, is to purchase SOMETHING from SOMEONE once a week. I dont care if its only .50! BUY SOMETHING and show that you support your fellow etsians!
If you dont really know what to buy, just think of something that you like. Say cookies for instance. Go to the main Etsy website (just in case theres newbies reading!)
http://www.etsy.com/ and enter the term COOKIES in the search box. So lets just say you only have 1.50, lets see what we can find to buy from someone with 1.50.
Now it takes you to the list where the newest items are listed first. Well, I dont have a lot of money, so I need to show the cheapest items first!
If you click on PRICE (located at the righthand side top of the list) once, you will see it sorts everything from highest to lowest. Well, I havent won the lotto yet, so 5,000 is a little much today... LOL
Click the price button again and Walaaa! Now it sorts it by the lowest price first!
So what can I buy for a 1.50??
Well how about this

Or how about this?
(these look SOOO good! Im gonna make some cookies today!)

How about this cute little ponytail holder??

by gotamago
buy it here!


Or, last but not least, these cute little magnets!

by jenis1321
buy it here!



Do you see my point?? There is always something we can buy. Even if its something really inexpensive! Make an Etsy pact today that you will buy at least ONE thing this week! and truley try to stick with it! It doesnt have to be cookies of course, as I said earlier, enter any search term you like and click lowest prices first and see whats there!

I hope I've stimulated you :o)

GO BUY SOMETHING!

If you post, they will come....








Heres a few more goodies from fellow Etsians! I started a thread asking for those who wanted to be featured. I did the first few, and now there are more, so I will post until no one new posts! I might be here all night :oP But HEY! Who knows, maybe somebody will sell something???

Happy to be in a new year~

I am so glad to be in a new year~! A new year always seems so refreshing, its a new start! And really, you dont know what could happen this year! It could be bad, it could be good. Whatever happens, I hope I can improve my life somehow. Theres always things that we can work on, but I want to be REALLY creative and thing of something thats really neat, really easy to make, and EVERYONE needs and wants!
YIPEE, school starts back on monday, so the kids will be gone, and I can do some more creative crafting, or in my case,
MESSMAKING!
LOL, thats my new years resolution, to clean up my craft area! Every time I get it looking good, I come up with some new idea, that I wanna try RIGHT NOW, and before you know it
BAM! Its a huge mess again. And I cant even blame it on the kids!

Hello to a new year!! (well almost!)

here I am at work and it 8 pm. I cant WAIT for a new year to start! This past year has been good, not great, not bad, but just ok. I have finished another semester at school, and am still working on getting into the nursing program.
I was pretty sad about it the last few days as my sister got into a year long program and I didnt. She got in because her hospital pays 100 percent, and mine doesnt, so I couldnt afford the 5000 dollar tuition.
OH WELL, life goes on, and I am looking forward to finishing my prereqs and getting into the RN program.
I am also looking forward to hopefully growing my blog, and my Etsy shop!
I am going to start working on some new things this weekend, to try and come up with something that will sell. I NEED to sell something! I want to get away from Ebay completely.
Heres to many happy sales for all crafters, whatever their venue may be!!
Oh and tell all your friends to follow my blog, Im gonna work on getting better and more creative !!

Beth
