I’m feeling very random today. It must be the change in seasons. I also couldn’t figure our how on earth to describe or display these. So I did what anyone would do: a pig and a pun.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!
It’s a beautiful day here, yet the trees are also starting to change colors and I’m fascinated by the fall reds on the maple leaves. I thought I’d also look for some patterns and colors to echo this in magnet sets, including this brand new Red Gumdrop set.
It was fun to realize, somewhat belatedly, that the 13 Delancey Street shop on Etsy has just passed its first quarter! It was even more fun to make the first quarterly donation to Carbonfund.org, which is the donation partner I’ve chosen for 2008. While my initial plan, as posted in the shop, was only to donate 1% of sales — to celebrate our first quarter I moved the decimal point one place and instead donated 10% of our first three months’ sales. And how nice — Carbonfund emailed me a certificate!
It’s been an interesting few weeks, and it’s very nice to be back. I’ve been thinking a lot about things coming full circle, and watching the fall colors begin to change. So here’s a little item along those lines, which I’m just calling Fall Colors - Circle Magnets — with my hopes that life is good for all
of you!
Yep, Soup to Nuts, really! (Hee-hee.) Got yer soup, got yer peanut butter . . .
The second runner-up name choice was “Macaroni Art” — I may have to make an Etsy treasury with this name, if can ever snag one.
I am like a little child when I discover one of my items in an Etsy treasury! I was especially happy to be included in Maddyandme’s treasury “Pumpkin Spice Latte Yummmmmm!” since it showcases such a nice variety of items, including jewelry, handmade soap (pumpkin lavender, yum!), clay pots, art prints, candles, and more. (Mine are the Pumpkin Spice Magnets, 3rd row center.)
I never really thought of myself as artsy (or even very crafty!) — it’s been so heartening to find a place where I can make little things and have them so warmly received.
You can visit the treasury here before it expires. Thank you, Maddyandme!
From all my years in New York, I developed a fondness for black clothes. And my favorite accompaniment is a splash of pink! So I was actually considering keeping these Pink Circles on Black for myself. Yet I demurred and added them to the Etsy shop instead. And now I’m off to see if I have an outfit to match. Hmmm . . . it might be time to g shopping!
