snowdrops!

Spring is finally here. The snowdrops and crocus are opening. No leaves yet, but the maples seem to be budding. It’s still in the 40’s to 50’s but hopefully it will warm up later this week.

I just sent my April email to my mailing list- I hope it’s in a good format for everyone’s email program. Since March seems to have gotten skipped over, there are three special offers. If you haven’t signed up for my mailing list, you can view them here. (If you decide to order, just mention in the message to seller that you found the offers on my blog.)

Petal Earrings on the Martha Stewart Show

I just watched the show this morning (it’s the leap year show- February 29th) but for some reason, in my area it didn’t air until today. I’d gotten a convo from Etsy admin on Friday the 22nd that the producers of the Martha Stewart show had selected some items and I guess the idea is that they would choose some to be on the show from those that arrived by Monday. So I sent my petal earrings, necklace, and birch bark ring Express and it looks like they selected both earrings and matching necklace, but Rob and Martha were running out of time as they went across the table from left to right. Mine seem to be last in line of the jewelry- so they weren’t mentioned by name, but you can see my little green boxes in the picture. As Rob mentions in the show, the selected items were on the Etsy front page on Friday, so I did end up with about 18 items to pack and ship for that day (most went out Saturday) and quite a few made-to-order rings to complete over the weekend. I think it was a record day for hearts- almost 200. So, thank you Etsy and Martha.

Oh and March 11th is when Emily Martin (The Black Apple) will be on Martha. I keep missing the show when Etsians are featured, so I’ll have to remember to watch on the 11th!

Etsy Treasury Lists

Posted in general at 5:04 am by esdesign

I stopped updating this post with my latest Treasury list. They just expire too quickly. Here’s a link to the Treasury itself…

Etsy Treasury (other Etsy members’ lists of favorite items)

By the way, this is a screen shot of my list that surprisingly made the front page. It’s big, so you can see the shop names and search for them on Etsy. That surprise front page made me check my Etsy shop and my blog (linked to where it says “nowhere special” above) to see how bad they looked at the moment… I need to work some more on my graphic design among other things.
