Treasury Catch Up

I am in a Treasury, have a Treasury West, and missed posting about a Treasury (I had) that is now expired. I am officially a treasury-holic. It is beginning to interfere with my daily activities/responsibilities. Michael came home last night after being away for the day in NC, and I never moved from the computer. The main Treasury was about to become open, so I was glued to the screen. Poor guy. Left as I slept that morning. Got ignored when he came home. This is my blogged apology... Sorry, baby! You are an AMAZING husband! I couldn't ask for more. I am so happy that most days we are together living our art, and that you no longer have to trek back and forth to NC! I love you!

Oh, and by the way, I missed the main Treasury opening... My "old" list wasn't expired, and you can only have one list at a time. I tried to delete it, but not soon enough, apparently. Oh well... Tomorrow...

The one I never posted:

Wait, no! Don't tell me! I never got a screen shot! Hmmm. Surely I can find it somewhere... Anyone else get a screen shot?

Chakra Colors

I found this really interesting web site last night while creating my latest treasury. The web site is What's Your Sign. My plan is to feature the EtsyTwitter Team by color. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet... This is my RED Treasury in Treasury West. Click it to see it live. An excerpt from www.whats-your-sign.com about the color red:

Red chakra color meanings:
The first, the root and base chakra. Just like the core of Mother Earth, it pulses and swells with bright crimson radiant heat. That red is a clear sign of visceral, primitive power. It's the sparking place for big blasts of raw creation. When you see red, consider a sonic boom of powerful action propelling you forward. Consider this the spark of action. Make this hot red heat the seat of your physical, spiritual, emotional birth. This is the hot coal of your perception, and it's a great fuel-maker for whatever you want to start cooking.

I Got a Treasury! Following

I am so excited! I snagged my first REAL Treasury today! I had a Treasury West the other day, and I think I am now addicted. I waited online for quite some time today to get into the main Treasury. Here is a picture. Click on it and you will be taken to the Treasury on Etsy--for the next three days only. Then it expires. It is full of my new "tweeps" (friends on twitter).


I tried re-snagging the Treasury West today, with no luck. I missed it. Maybe later tonight? Who knows... I am working on the layout for two different ones. One about storage ideas and one themed "urban." Stay tuned to my blog, of course I will share them here if I get one!

It's Another Treasury!

What a wonderful thing to wake to this morning! I got a convo from Irith/RioRita letting me know that I was in her treasury. Please, check it out! To make a treasury "hot" leave a comment and visit each shop featured. Also, take a look at RioRita's! She does amazing jewelry work. Pictured here is on of my favorites. Take the time to read her bio. What a dreamy place that she lives and works. Thank you Irith!

She featured my Fuzzy Flower Crochet Necklace. This necklace is made from recycled handspun yarn that I purchased from CRAFTY. Treasury's direct link: http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=44126room_id=44126

Degrees of Separation

Vaguely familiar with Six Degrees of Separation, I had to do some reading on Wikipedia. Did you know that there is a web site http://www.sixdegrees.org/ "bringing social conscience to social networking" and a Facebook group Six Degrees? Okay, I'm getting sidetracked...

Back to my original blogging subject...

Well, I met Linda in the forums. We shared a few convos where she let me know about a treasury she created. And although there are many talented artists featured, I was struck by photography by Jared (in Kansas). Look at his art! Pictured here is my favorite, and believe me, a favorite was hard to pick. This one is titled "Morning Glory Pool." I love photography. I entered his shop curious and left inspired. Check out his shop, I am sure you'll feel the same.

Featured in our first Treasury!!!

We are so excited today! The Crochet Red Flower Necklace is featured in the Treasury! It is our first!!! For those of you who don't know, the Treasury is a big deal. From the Treasury, Etsy administration chooses items to feature on the Front Page of the site! This increases traffic to our shop and will hopefully bring a sale or two.

Please check out the Treasury here, so views will increase and make it a "hot" list! Also, we'd like to thank Golden Pear Art Studio for the feature in her Treasury called "Contrast." So check out her shop on Etsy too! Thank you Jodi!
