Where has the time gone...

My goodness! It's been eons since I last posted!

Well, when the ebb and flow life swirls around you it's best to hold on and hope that calmer waters are ahead!

With a home move eminent, I have begun taking stock in just what is important to me. Do all my bits and bobs and bones and ephemera that threaten to engulf me one of these days really make me happy? Do they? (Husband cocks an eyebrow).

The answer dear readers is an unabashed YES!!! So if you excuse me I'm off to the liquor store for a bottle of Gin and and a trunk load of boxes!

I leave you with some new listings and a promise to be back soon!

Brand Spankin' New- Destash Section!

Boy- in these times a girl can't be so selective...

I've always kind of shied away from having a destash section in my shop for one reason- I'm a hoarder. Big time.
Mine, mine, mine!
But recently a friend stopped by while I was mid-craft. I invited said friend up to hang out while I finished a project. I found it quite interesting that said friend seemed really interested not in the project, but more in the pieces that make up the project. I inquired if said friend would like to get her hands on some of that fine, fine loot. The answer was a resounding "Hell Yeah" and the Destash section of my Etsy shop was born...
I even decided to sweeten the deal by offering all destash items with free shipping to the US and a pittance for shipping to everywhere else!

Oh Pennsylvania, how do I love thee....

Shop Makeover!

For a while now my Etsy shop has been leaning in a different direction than I had first intended. That is, of course, totally ok! It's evolving... into a more honed version of itself.

So I decided to give it a little makeover!

I have tweaked my avatar and given my banner a well deserved update!

I think looks pretty good!

But I'd still love a critique!
