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!

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......
