An Alberta Street Teammate of mine let me know last night that I'm in her new Treasury! :D

Thanks, Cindy!

Ocean Blue Treasury!

I woke up today to a convo letting me know that my Oceanic blue abalone zipper pull is in a Treasury! :) SerendipityByErin created this marvelous collection and was kind enough to include me. Check out her shop for beautiful handcrafted earrings.

Gorgeous Ocean Blues

The Lovely Ms Linda!

I just got a convo from the lovely Ms Lindabutterfly letting me know that I'm in her gorgeous new Treasury! :)

She added my By The Seashore shell bracelet to this beautiful collection. Thanks, Linda!

Alberta Rocks!

I'm in a Treasury! This beautiful collection was put together by MyGrandpasPen (check out her shop for unique and creative handcrafted cards). She's clearly a talented Treasury creator, and I'm just thrilled to find my sister's Purple Thistle photograph included! :)

A little PICK me up!

I managed to snag a Treasury West the other day, and I was feeling a bit down at the time, so I decided to make it a Pick Me Up collection. Beautiful items to lift your mood. :) I found these pieces from the shops of friends, and it's one of my favourite Treasuries ever.

(See below for a diagram of links to these items.)

Bitty Bird * Watercolour * The Ocean.....

Tropical * Cloud Dance * Pink Rose

Ruffles Hat * Wave Rider * Coffee Mug

Glass Pendant * Poppies * Glamor Ring

I'm on the Front Page!!!

Whoohooo!!! I just got a convo from the curator of a Treasury West that I'm in telling me that the Treasury made the front page of Etsy.com!!! :D

This gorgeous collection was created by floralia. Check out her amazing art prints! :)

Hushhh......

Mine are the Moonshine earrings at the bottom center.

I made one and I'm in one! Treasuries, that is.

I finally managed to snag another Treasury! I had to wait and wait, but I got a T. West. :) I made it a collection of artists from the very talented Alberta Street Team.

Alberta Bound!



And I'm featured in a Treasury! Collected by the incredibly creative Robin from BeadNestDesigns. Mine is the Rectangle in Red necklace at the top right. :)

With a little help from FRIENDS!

As Luck Would Have It....

No sooner do I write a blog post about always missing the Treasury than I manage to snag one! :) My luck has changed, whoo!

Treasury- Swing and Miss

I love to make Treasuries. Sifting through Etsy looking for phenomenal products with great photos is a lot of fun. I realized that it's been quite a while since I actually made a Treasury, so I recently started checking both the Main Treasury and Treasury West to see if I could catch one.

But luck just isn't on my side. Every time I look they're both very full, meaning it will be awhile before either one opens up again. And when they get to be about an hour or two from opening up, I wind up distracted with a chore or end up going for a walk.

I used to have really good "Treasury Karma" and was able to catch one every time I put my mind to it. I learned a great trick from some people in the forums - never refresh the page. If you refresh it, you resend all of the info and are likely to lose your space. But if you just leave it open and you're patient enough, it will always open up for you. Using that technique, I've snagged a Treasury every time I've sat and waited and been on time.

My problem at the moment is never catching it at the right time to sit and wait. But I shall not give up! I'm sure that my luck will change back and I will once again be a Golden Treasury Snatcher. Oh yes..... I will snatch a Treasury......

Naughty or Nice?

My dear Etsy friend Jessi has featured me in another one of her amazing Treasuries! She always has a unique and creative concept for her Treasuries, and I was just delighted to find a photograph that I took featured in her latest. :)

Mine is the Heavenly Clouds photo in the middle on the right hand side.

Have you been NAUGHTY???

I'm interviewing Jessi to feature her on my blog, so stay tuned to find out more about this creative Etsy seller. :)

I love being in Treasuries!

I woke up today to a wonderful surprise - I'm in a Treasury! :) The gorgeous and fabulous Miss Jessi of jessijewels created a beautiful Treasury featuring people from The Hug Thread, a friendly little oasis in the Etsy forums.

The sunflower photo at the top right was taken by my sister, Natashia, and is for sale in our shop. :)

luvin' in the garden ...


Coincidentally, I entered a contest run by CelticKnot today, and won $5 off any item in her shop! I showed Natashia her shop and she fell in love with the Rainbow Helix earrings featured in the above Treasury. Thus, they are no longer available. ;)

Wow! I'm in two more fabulous Treasuries!

The wonderfully talented Debashri has a knack for Treasuries! And this one may be her best yet!

A big thanks to Deb for including my Setting Sunflower earrings. :)

Meandering through ETSY



And one of my sister, Natashia's, photos is featured in a truly stunning ladybug Treasury assembled by Kalos. Check out her shop for some really gorgeous jewelry. :)

Thank you, Kalos, for including our Ladybug on Rosebush photo!

More good Treasury news!

Last night I made it to the front page of Etsy!!! The Treasury that I posted about earlier yesterday created by the fabulously talented BeadNestDesigns was chosen by admin to grace the front page! Views in my shop skyrocketed by over 500! About 250 of those directly to our King of the Castle photo, and the rest spread out through our shop. :) It was so exciting!

A truly gorgeous group of items to be included in. So a big thank you to BeadNestDesigns for making one of my Etsy dreams come true!



And as if two Treasuries and a front page slot weren't enough, the incredibly talented Debashri has also featured me in a Treasury! Mine are the Green Leaf earrings in the middle. :)

Debashri's Picks for my friends



Debashri makes the most amazing clay flowers. They look so incredibly delicate and paper thin, you would never know that they're fake, let alone made of clay! Check out her shop for flower arrangements that will last you for years to come. :)

And just when you thought that I couldn't be in any more Treasuries.....

I get by with a little help...

Selected by my very good Etsy friend, jessijewels, who has some amazing jewels of her own. Mine is the Triple Cherry Swirl necklace at the bottom center. :)



Check out Jessi's shop for some incredibly creative, unique and beautiful pieces of jewelry, as well as her handcrafted cards which are better than anything you'll find in the drugstore.
