Some Great Items!!

So I've decided to feature other amazing etsy artisans periodically, so that I have more to blog about besides just myself!! I'm sure you get tired of me tooting my own horn all the time!! Anyways, today I wanted to do a few shops.

The first shop is called PURE Natural Minerals and Rose sells some amazing handcrafted mineral makeup at great prices. Here is a picture of one of her eye shadow sets that I love! It is called Earth Girl-Eye Shadow Mini Set. Check out her amazing makeup by clicking on her shop name above!



The next awesome shop is called Bazketmakr. Pamela makes and sells Fiber Art and Horsehair Baskets that are just beautiful. One of my favorite items in her shop is this amazing horsehair basket called Dark Filly. To see this and her other items check out her shop!



Ok, so the last shop that I'm going to feature today is Hell0Z0mbie. In her shop she has several types of items including photographs and jewelry. One of my favorites is one of her original artist trading cards called Old Wheel Photograph ACEO. Here is a picture of it! Check out her other fun things she has for sale in her shop!


Well I hope you enjoy these shops as much as I do! Also let me know what you think about the whole feature idea! I'm open for input!!

I'm Back!!

Talk about missing in action!! I think everyone has probably forgotten about me by now!! Anyways for those of you who are still around I am greatful! I think everyone goes through times in life where you get burnt out, and that's exactly what happened to me! But I'm motivated again and am back to jewelry making! Woohoo! So I've decided to set a goal to post at least once a week on this blog so keep looking, and if it's been awhile, leave me a comment and remind me of my goal! Anyways I'll keep this one short but will be adding more later!

I Must Be CRAZY!!!!

So as I mentioned awhile back, I have my first craft fair coming up the 5-6 of December, and I'm really excited to do it. Well then a little bit ago I heard about another one the following weekend, and I SIGNED UP!!!! So now I have two back to back--SCARY!! I am really excited to do them both, but am a bit nervous since I've never even done one before!! If anyone has any tips, I'd greatly appreciate them!! So here is the flier about the second one, which will be December 12-13 in Draper, UT. If you live close, you should stop by and see me!!

I've Been Tagged!!

I was tagged by Amariah!

I'm supposed to write 7 facts about myself, then tag 7 more people!

Here are the rules for the people I'm about to tag:

Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.~ Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.~ Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their name as well as links to their blog.~ Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.


So here it goes...7 facts about me:

1. I love to play board games with friends and family! One of my favorites is Settlers!! If you've never played, you should!

2. I spend way too much time on the computer. I get addicted to things really easily, so I have to limit myself so that I don't waste my whole day!

3. I'm taller than my husband!! Before I met my husband, I wouldn't even consider dating someone who was shorter than me, but when I met him it just didn't seem to matter!! I guess when you find "the one" you can overlook things like that. When we first started dating, I would try to mainly wear flat shoes, but now I just don't care anymore. I love high heels!! They just make my legs look so much better(if I do say so myself!!)

4. I'm LDS (a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints!) and am very grateful for the blessings that come from this.

5. I gave birth to my son naturally(no epidural) in a birthing center.

6. When I have another child I'm getting an epidural!!! I don't want you to think that my first birth was terrible, it was just very very long, and I was so exhausted that I didn't really get to enjoy the whole process(if it's possible!!) So my labor was 39 hours long, with 4 1/2 hours of pushing:( My son's head was turned just slightly to the side, enough that he got stuck. It got to the point that the ambulance was called, and everyone was starting to freak out (except for me--I was too out of it!) but luckily the ambulance wasn't necessary! The positives of this experience were that I didn't have to have a C-section!--Probably would have if I was in a hospital, and surviving the whole experience is very empowering!!

7. And last but not least......I love fruit smoothies!!

There they are--seven things about myself. I hope that you learned something new about me, and weren't bored. Now it's your turn, so that I can learn about you too!

I tag: RHB Designs, Pink Patrice, Bonny Lass Jewelry, & Crickets Creations
