Lots Going on Over Here

I have been making jewelry like crazy!  Things have been starting to move in my Etsy shop too. 

I have been lucky enough to snag a few treasuries too.  Treasuries I made that is.  For those of you who aren't familiar with Etsy a treasury is collage of items from different sellers.  They usually have some sort of theme and color scheme.  The really good ones end up on the front page of Etsy.  They are really hard to get which make them really enticing to me.  I am ALWAYS up for a challenge!

I think that's why I always loved Ebay.  I loved the challenge of winning.  I had to cut myself off from ebay because I was winning things I didn't need just because I liked the challenge!  The treasuries are a much safer bet because they don't cost a thing!

So all that to say that here is my treasury.  I wanted to show you because I was thinking about something the other day as I was putting it together.  I always get lots of compliments on the unique stones I use in my jewelry designs.  I love stone pendants. 

I think that love comes from my youthful days of rock collecting.  While most young girls (mine included) play dress up and princess I was collecting rocks for my "Rock Garden".  I had this patch of yard in the backyard that was mine for all my treasures.  Anywhere we went I was on the lookout for pretty rocks.

It sounds a lot like I am today.  Instead of a rock garden I actually make them into something.  Easier on the back..let me tell ya!  Anyway, I just wanted to share my observation because I thought it was cool how my obsession with pretty rocks morphed over the years!

I have added a few more things in the shop over the weekend.  Also, be sure to check out the Rare Bird Finds post announcing my contest winners.  There may be a discount in there for you!  It's only good for today too!
