As for other fun news,  i have been a part of this awesome team on etsy called Treasure Me Team.

we make a bunch of beautiful treasuries daily. so in case you want to buy something special for someone but are clueless, you will be surprised at all the new things you will find in treasuries!   i have a bad habit of buying things from them all the time! yes, i have to admit, i am addicted to Etsy!  here’s a link to my treasuries.

i also joined another awesome team, this one is more for that special day in your life, but more twisted my kind of style. Offbeat Wedding Etsy Team i figured i get asked all the time to make things for Brides, Grooms, & wedding parties, so why not join  this team!
