Is your room clean?

This past Christmas, my hubby's parents gave us a Wii as a family present. My son LOVES to play his Scooby Doo game that he has on it and asks nearly every day to play. Of course he doesn't need to play everyday but on the days I plan to let him play, I try to make sure he has his room clean first.

This morning, one of the first things he asked after getting up was to play the Wii so I asked him if his room was clean. He went to check and was in his room for quite some time. I didn't really hear any cleaning going on though. He then comes out, shuts the door behind him, and proceeds to tell me

"Yep, it's clean but don't see in."

I asked if it was clean and he told me yes. I told him I was going to check but he didn't want me to check. So what do you think? Think it was clean? No? Me either but whatever might have given us THAT idea?

Totally New Thursday Week 17

I'm still keeping up with both of my New Year's resolutions for 2013! Yay me! Although, I must be honest and admit that I nearly forgot to list a new item in our Etsy shop and blog about it here for this week. You know, for my resolution to list a new item every Thursday then blog about it? Shhhh......don't tell anyone I nearly forgot!

Sooooooo..........my totally new Thursday item for this week is a new color combination of coasters. These would be great for Valentine's Day, which, yes, I know. Valentine's Day has already come and gone this year but hey, there is always next year right?

This set of six coasters would also be great for that gal in your life who loves the color pink! This coaster set comes with not one, but two different shades of pink! Also included in this set are white coasters too.

Don't like this color combo? Well, all you need to do is send me a conversation via Etsy and let me know what colors you'd like. I'll be happy to make and list them if I can!

And that my dear blog readers is your totally new Thursday item for the 17th week of 2013! Thanks for reading!

Totally New Thursday Week 16

Ta da! My totally new Thursday item for this week is a new dish cloth design! I just LOVE this pattern! Pictured are just three of the five colors I listed in our Etsy shop today. If you like pink/white or brown/blue/white color combinations, you'll want to check out the other two listings in our dish cloth section found here.

Stay tuned to our shop in the months to come as I hope to add many more colors in this round shell stitch pattern. If you have a color in mind that you don't see listed, please don't hesitate to send a convo. I love custom orders!

And that my dear blog readers is my blog post keeping up with one of my 2013 New Year's resolutions to list a new item every Thursday this year in our Etsy shop and then blog about it here! Hope you liked it!

My Twenty-Third Featured Etsian

For the month of April I will be featuring buyers from our shop who have an Etsy shop of their own. Just another way to thank them for purchasing from us and also a way to help promote them as well!

The spotlight for this post is shining on my twenty-third featured Etsian, Natasha Mileshina, from bubbo found on Etsy here.

This shop offers custom organizers, planners, notebooks, calligraphy, and typography. Natasha loves custom orders so go have a peek in her shop to see if you want her to make you anything!

My Twenty-Second Featured Etsian

So one of my 2013 New Year's resolutions was to shop on the first Friday of every month this year and then blog about what I bought once I had received my purchase.

Well, the first Friday of April came and I shopped. I had my package in my hands by the following Wednesday which is pretty good turn around time in my opinion. I, unfortunately did not have quite as fast of a turn around when it came to blogging about the shop I purchased from. I've been busy but I'm blogging now. Yay!

The spotlight for this blog post is shining upon my twenty-second featured Etsian, Johanna, from FireflyCabin found here on Etsy. As you can see by the photos in this blog, I purchased the cutest buttons. Love them! Not totally sure what I'm planning for my froggies and piggies yet but I know it will turn out wonderful!

Besides craft and sewing supplies like the buttons I purchased, Johanna also has handmade items and a bit of vintage too.

You may notice varying prices at FireflyCabin. That is because whenever Johanna gets a deal, she passes that deal on to you!

Go check out this shop to see if there is something you just have to have!

Totally New Thursday Week 15

Tis Thursday and I am on top of one of my New Year's resolutions to list a new item every Thursday in our Etsy shop and then blog about it.






So for today, my totally new Thursday item is a new design of dish scrubbie . I actually listed four listings of these in four different colors as you can see by the photos in this post.

So far the colors listed are red, hunter green, orange, and light blue.

Ta da! Introducing cute lil' ladybug crocheted nylon netting dish scrubbies! Whatcha think? Don't they just scream spring?

My Twenty-First Featured Etsian

I've decided that for the month of April I will be featuring buyers from our shop who have an Etsy shop of their own.

So for my twenty-first featured Etsian, meet Terri Rutherford from CreationsByTerrie found here on Etsy. She was our third buyer this month but our first buyer with her own shop. Pictured in this blog post are just a few of the many items Terri has for sale!

Creations by Terri offers items personalized with appliques and monograms. Terri specializes in burp cloths, onesies, boutique items, bow holder dresses, and bows. She also has other items as well!

Please browse her shop and check back often as she is always adding new items! She also does custom orders so please convo her with any questions you might have!

Totally New Thursday Week 14

So this week my Thursday came and went without me listing a new item in our Etsy shop and without me blogging about that new item here. Ooops! What can I say though?

My Thursday was just SUPER busy and my New Year's resolution to list a new item every Thursday this year and then blog about it the same day just didn't even cross my mind until about 11:15pm last night. By then, it was nearly bedtime and I just wasn't going to be working online that late.

Sooooo......in order to try to keep up with this particular resolution I listed three new listings tonight and am now blogging about them for you all to read about!

As you can tell by the photos in this blog post, I listed three new hand towel designs and all are The Little Mermaid. Aren't they just too cute?
