Please check out JoannaGoldman's shop on etsy.... You will mot be disappointed!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;Tell us a little about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been drawing ever since I can remember. I've been selling my art for about three years. I started with the light switch covers, then slowly started making everything else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nope! But my Day job is pretty cool...Right now i am working as a motion graphics artist for a show called "Deconstructed". It will air on the Discovery Chanel in September.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like my lobby characters the best probably because I just LOVE going to the movies!&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11448718" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11448718&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found Etsy by chance. Ever since i've been creating more and more items to sell. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Baby Onesies will arrive sometime soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;Do you have a blog or website you would like to share?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have both:&lt;a href="http://joannagoldman.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://joannagoldman.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;and&lt;a href="http://www.joannagoldman.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.joannagoldman.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-7843915939710963698?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/7843915939710963698/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=7843915939710963698' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7843915939710963698'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7843915939710963698'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/07/featured-etsy-seller-of-week.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~ JoannaGoldman'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SGvgp_sRKuI/AAAAAAAAAJE/8FI2zcbc3cc/s72-c/il_430xN_30601659.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-8586461649190416332</id><published>2008-07-01T10:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-01T10:19:25.629-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Monkeys and Bunnies in a Rainbow of Colors!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SGpme_B87OI/AAAAAAAAAIs/VzEhNT-Cqjs/s1600-h/il_430xN_30772631.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218095800763870434" style="WIDTH: 204px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 183px" height="225" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SGpme_B87OI/AAAAAAAAAIs/VzEhNT-Cqjs/s320/il_430xN_30772631.jpg" width="240" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SGpmlO0Av2I/AAAAAAAAAI0/Tq0rRgxpeBg/s1600-h/il_430xN_29830049.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218095908079583074" style="WIDTH: 210px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 188px" height="236" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SGpmlO0Av2I/AAAAAAAAAI0/Tq0rRgxpeBg/s320/il_430xN_29830049.jpg" width="245" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Here is one of my newest monkeys!

Tell us a little about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I'm a stay at home mom to my beautiful 13 yr old daughter, happily REmarried to a wonderful man. I love fine wine with dinner, hot coffee while camping, sweet tea on the porch swing and an ice cold beer during hockey/football games! I grew up on a farm and still live in the country-which I love! I am happiest when I'm surrounded by all things 'nature'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I've just recently become fortunate enough to quit working and stay at home after having jobs in a WIDE variety of fields: retail/management/health care/special education assistance...pretty much everything outside of food service and clothing! I always enjoyed being 'creative' and am thrilled that I can now focus so much more time/energy towards it. My goal IS to make it my 'full time job'....everybody should have a career doing what they love most afterall!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;hmmmm.......that's really tough! All of my items are one of a kind and cover a WIDE array of "departments". With no two being alike, it would be like trying to choose a favorite child! LOL&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Well, actually I got into the woodburning when a coworkers husband was building a gun cabinet and wanted a deer scene burnt into the top hutch. Well, I'd never drawn a deer at that point and I'd CERTAINLY never used a woodburner! But he convinced me to try it out on a piece of scrap wood...and I feel in love w/burning! The cabinet was BEAUTIFUL! So I started burning just for fun, embellishing things around the home. Eventually I tried my hand at participating in a local Christmas craft show doing only wooden ornaments that I'd personalize on-site....I was the LAST one to close up that day! I was SOOO busy, I thought my hand would fall off! NOW, I'm trying to do it on a more "my time" schedule and at my own pace. (Although I still participate in many local shows! I guess I'm a glutton for punishment!)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Right now I'm working on TONS of Holiday items so that I can add a "Christmas" section to my shop. Fall/Winter is my FAVORITE time of year and that which ispires me most...it all just seems to go w/the wood! I'll be adding wooden toys, decorative slieghs, home decor, ornaments, bath and body---all of which will offer personalization.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Do you have a blog or website you would like to share?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;You can find me at-&lt;a href="http://www.thewoodynook.etsy.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.thewoodynook.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt; and my NEWEST endevour &lt;a href="http://www.thewoodynook.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.thewoodynook.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;I'd love to see you there!

Tell us a little about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a BFA in illustration from Rhode Island School of Design. My work largely consists of children’s illustrations. I love anthropomorphized animals (as you can tell from my shop). They never fail to make me smile! I opened my Etsy shop over a year ago. Originally, it was intended as a way for me to sell my extra illustrations and gift items that were left over from the art fairs I used to do. (Now I’m addicted! Haha!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, I’m not a full-time illustrator or crafter. (I wish!) I have a full-time “day job” as is the case for most of the artists I know. I work as the administrative assistant for the grant director at a literacy-based developmental preschool. I’m up to my eyeballs in children’s books, kids run in and out of my office all day, and I love it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s a tough one. I guess I’ll have to go with Cosma the Diva Pig. She’s the one that inspired me to start making and selling my plush characters. She is also the piece that got me noticed by HGTV. “That’s Clever” came to my studio last summer to tape me for an episode. (Though, my show won’t be airing until next season.) So I think by default, I have to list her as #1.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.&lt;strong&gt; How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My mother is an avid crafter, and I’ve always loved (and have been involved in) art it in some way. What could be more perfect than to try to mesh your passion with your work life? I couldn’t imagine NOT doing it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve been creating tiny original drawings mounted on mat board lately. There are a few for sale already in my shop. They’re really fun. I plan on making more…I have so many ideas of what I want to draw next! 6. Do you have a blog or website you would like to share? I’m still working on my personal website, so the only sites I have up and running right now are my Etsy shop and my blog. The blog can be found here:&lt;a href="http://www.honeydewstudio.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.honeydewstudio.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-2573221352244223194?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/2573221352244223194/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=2573221352244223194' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/2573221352244223194'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/2573221352244223194'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/06/featured-etsy-seller-of-week.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~HoneyDew Studios'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SFFcOn9hLXI/AAAAAAAAAIU/8Fjz67Tb70g/s72-c/il_430xN_17429267.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-1647555706979335907</id><published>2008-06-02T12:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-02T12:52:30.662-07:00</updated><title type='text'>"Seven Random Irrelevant Things about Me"</title><content type='html'>I was "tagged" and I am going to tag someone else too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

I love them!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.glitterstar.etsy.com/"&gt;http://www.glitterstar.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Tell us a little about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I live in Wisconsin with my son, daughter, and husband of 5 years. I also have a step son who stay with us on the weekends. I've been a stay at home mom for the past 4 years. I opened my original Etsy shop about a year ago &lt;a href="http://www.glitterstar.etsy.com/"&gt;http://www.glitterstar.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt;. I decided I had a few too many different items in it. I wanted to put my clothing items in their own place. I put a poll on my blog to help pick a new name and GlitterStitch was the winner. I'm just getting started with this new shop. I hope to add a lot more to it in the future.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yes I am a full time crafter. I don't always have time to do it though. I spend most of my day taking care of my kids and cleaning. The usual.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My favorite item in my shop is my "Blow Me" shirt. I don't know why but I find it funny. I also have a strange sense of humor.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I've always been into art and design. I took pretty much every art class I could in school. I went to a two year tech after high school and got my associate in graphic design. A couple years ago my husband was sent to Iraq and I needed something to keep my mind off of it. I bought my first sewing machine and taught myself how to sew. When he left our son was 18 months old. I quit my job so I could be with him full time. Four years later I haven't went back into the work force. Part of me thinks I should, but I really don't want too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I plan on adding handmade clothes within the next few weeks.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;Do you have a blog or website you would like to share?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have my original shop at &lt;a href="http://glitterstar.etsy.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://glitterstar.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I also have a blog at &lt;a href="http://www.glitterstardesigns.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.glitterstardesigns.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and a myspace.&lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/glitterstardesigns" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.myspace.com/glitterstardesigns&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-7639798785323409573?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/7639798785323409573/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=7639798785323409573' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7639798785323409573'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7639798785323409573'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/05/featured-etsy-seller-of-weekglitterstar.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~Glitterstar'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCxuAm5XN1I/AAAAAAAAAHs/ep6EtDkzL1o/s72-c/il_155x125_25675820.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-200522380188019128</id><published>2008-05-09T10:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-09T10:33:06.631-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~Kookyhandbags</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCSJnX4mCxI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/i-oEAXhMdTI/s1600-h/il_430xN.7016074.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198431179411688210" style="WIDTH: 190px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 158px" height="239" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCSJnX4mCxI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/i-oEAXhMdTI/s320/il_430xN.7016074.jpg" width="202" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCSJd34mCwI/AAAAAAAAAHI/VSHREDste6Y/s1600-h/il_430xN.20553326.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198431016202930946" style="WIDTH: 190px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 153px" height="239" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCSJd34mCwI/AAAAAAAAAHI/VSHREDste6Y/s320/il_430xN.20553326.jpg" width="196" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SCSJYH4mCvI/AAAAAAAAAHA/hlNFh1T4Sq8/s1600-h/il_430xN.6415763.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://kookyhandbags.etsy.com/"&gt;http://kookyhandbags.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Check out her cute shop!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Tell us a little about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I live in Whitby, just east of Toronto, with my wonderful guy, two cats and a beagle named Miss Lulu Belle. I'm a very crafty girl since junior high, I've been making stuff, including handbags which are my main interest, but I also enjoy making jewelry, pillows and just recently plush toys. Oh, and I adore drinking tea and coffee and baked goods, and the beach.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I would classify myself as a full-time crafter since I no longer work in the real world so to speak. I am fortunate enough not to have to, so I can devote my time to creating things. I also like to walk my dog and read newspapers and magazines, and beautiful interior design books from the library in my sunroom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;My favorite item is perhaps, My patchwork bag, which is make from an old 60's or 70's quilt. It's my Becky bag, named from 'Rebecca of SunnyBrook Farm'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;About 10 years ago, I got a handbag pattern, and sewed it up, and shortly afterward, people and my family and friends asked about it, which got me behind the sewing machine alot more. I've always sewed my own cushions, and I used to sew in College, where I participated in making clothes for fashion shows.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Right this moment, I am into making lavender mini pillows with beautiful fabric. I am working on the patterns of animal shaped pillows too. Their in my other shop on Etsy, talkofthetown. But I will also be working on some more bags with a new pattern I found. It's a shoulder bag where the handle flows into the main bag.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Do you have a blog or website you would like to share?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I used to have a website but I gave up on it but I have a blog which is nearly 2 years old.

I saw her items and decided to tempt you all! I cannot wait to try some of her creations myself! ENJOY!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Tell us a little bit about you and your shop:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My name is Lacie; I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart Shawn for 8 years. We have 3 beautiful boys: Tyler is 7 and was born with Down syndrome, Carson is 2 and Jordan is 8 months old. No more kids for my, odds off having a girl would be slim to none and I’m way out numbered now as it is. I live in sunny Florida on the west coast in Bonita Springs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I’m a full time mom and part time baker who is dreaming of the day I can do this full time. I decorate cakes as well as my other baking. I spend a lot of time with my extended family; we are a close knit group. My other hobbies include: scrapbooking, reading and making baby items. My sister and I are in the process of building up stock for our joint Etsy shop Two Sisters Tutu &lt;a href="http://www.twosisterstutu.etsy.com/"&gt;http://www.twosisterstutu.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt; we will be selling Baby Leggies, tutus (my outlet for grisliness since I only have boys) and other baby and children items. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My absolute favorite item would be my homemade marshmallow smores; you have not tried a marshmallow until you have had homemade, yummy!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. How did you get into this business?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I started out at a young age loving baking, that has blossomed over the years as I started tweaking recopies to make them tastier. When I started having children I ran into the same problem all parents do, seeing the same few character cakes at all the parties. I wanted something different for my sons so I took up cake decorating, I’m self thought. That also blossomed into hand decorated cookies. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have lots of stuff I make that I haven’t had the time or the pics to get them on my Etsy shop but soon I will be listing fresh fruit puree flavored marshmallows and other flavors, more cookie and brownie options and a top secret idea I have been working on for a while :p&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Do you have a blog or website you'd like to share?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://asugaraffair.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://asugaraffair.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-8834080986526056052?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/8834080986526056052/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=8834080986526056052' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/8834080986526056052'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/8834080986526056052'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/05/featured-etsy-seller-of-week-sugar.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~ A Sugar Affair'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBtY89268WI/AAAAAAAAAF8/rv1c9UR3fuY/s72-c/il_75x75.25500233.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-7357722105557268554</id><published>2008-04-30T16:33:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-30T16:33:52.206-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I hate men</title><content type='html'>Just wanted to share my thoughts for the day.... the title explains it all.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-7357722105557268554?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/7357722105557268554/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=7357722105557268554' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7357722105557268554'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7357722105557268554'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/i-hate-men.html' title='I hate men'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-996740890095078981</id><published>2008-04-29T18:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-29T18:20:07.960-07:00</updated><title type='text'>New Team and some News</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfIXN268TI/AAAAAAAAAFk/o3c1RHMTMnE/s1600-h/of%3D50,553,443.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 285px; height: 228px;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfIXN268TI/AAAAAAAAAFk/o3c1RHMTMnE/s320/of%3D50,553,443.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194840996377719090" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfINd268SI/AAAAAAAAAFc/D1z6YOymhWw/s1600-h/th_100_0929-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 175px; height: 130px;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfINd268SI/AAAAAAAAAFc/D1z6YOymhWw/s320/th_100_0929-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194840828873994530" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfIm9268UI/AAAAAAAAAFs/qwqwSCUyh0U/s1600-h/c37a.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 90px; height: 95px;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfIm9268UI/AAAAAAAAAFs/qwqwSCUyh0U/s320/c37a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194841266960658754" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just got accepted onto a new awesome etsy team! They are the Etsy Angels Team and they do good work, such as donating to charities and such. I was on a waiting list to get into this wonderful group! So far, I have had nothing but warm welcomes from all the ladies! We are doing a charity run soon, so I will keep you posted!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Search &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;eangteam&lt;/span&gt; to see some of the great items these ladies make! There are sock monkeys, crochet items, jewelry, baby items and some yummy soaps and lotions I have my eye on! I am just really happy to be part of a group like this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For anyone who does not know, I am getting married on 10/04/08. We are donating supplies and cash to the Michigan Humane Society in honor of Fred and Tiffany. I think helping out this charity, which is really struggling right now, is much better than a favor that you will most likely take home and throw away! My animals are so important to me. I plan on posting a list of the supplies to see if anyone has anything they would like to donate, but it has to be closer to the wedding. Their request list changes on a quarterly basis. So, anyhow, the pictures at the top are of me and my finace Dave and Fred and Tiffany. Thanks for reading! Check out the etsy angels team items too!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-996740890095078981?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/996740890095078981/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=996740890095078981' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/996740890095078981'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/996740890095078981'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-team-and-some-news.html' title='New Team and some News'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SBfIXN268TI/AAAAAAAAAFk/o3c1RHMTMnE/s72-c/of%3D50,553,443.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-7616462586983403888</id><published>2008-04-23T17:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-23T17:43:32.882-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~LaurasLeftHook</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XYd268QI/AAAAAAAAAFM/d1BUrAKhGzI/s1600-h/il_75x75_23119775.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XYd268QI/AAAAAAAAAFM/d1BUrAKhGzI/s320/il_75x75_23119775.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192605710713286914" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XS9268PI/AAAAAAAAAFE/SVoCV3CO1bk/s1600-h/il_75x75_24363870.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XS9268PI/AAAAAAAAAFE/SVoCV3CO1bk/s320/il_75x75_24363870.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192605616224006386" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XON268OI/AAAAAAAAAE8/kEboAHE2MoU/s1600-h/il_75x75_22157348.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XON268OI/AAAAAAAAAE8/kEboAHE2MoU/s320/il_75x75_22157348.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192605534619627746" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lauraslefthook.etsy.com"&gt;www.lauraslefthook.etsy.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the featured seller of the week, lauraslefthook! Laura is a fellow etsy hooker! She has a wonderful blog where she features a fellow etsy hooker every week, so I thought it was high time that she be featured herself!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tell us a little bit about you and your shop:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;I have crocheted since I was in college, although my grandmother did  try to teach me a bit when I was younger.  I also like to do some paper crafts, but crocheting has taken over right now.  I am trying to fill  my shop with items that kids and their parents will love as well as useful creations for around the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a stay at home mother to two daughters.  One daughter is in kindergarten, while the other is three and still at home all day.  My youngest was born with a hearing loss, so we have been learning ASL (&lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1208997123_0" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;"&gt;American Sign Language&lt;/span&gt;.)  At this time, her speech and language skills are great, but you never know so we continue to learn.  I also plan and run a playgroup twice a month to learn ASL for toddlers and preschoolers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;What is your favorite item in your shop?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love making the puppets.  I think I really like my ballerinas, but I am also proud of the wolf since I had to figure him out all by myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;How did you get into this business?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did a craft fair before I was married, but then mostly just created things for gifts.  Last fall my husband lost his job and I decided to try making things to sell again to help with our finances (or at least pay for my hobby.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Anything new and exciting we should look for?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;I have an idea for a new puppet that I really need to get back to working on.  I have just added some tawashi scrubbers to my shop  because my blog was linked to a site that suggested using my flower coaster pattern to make them; I figured I would try it out myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;6. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Do you have a blog or website you'd like to share?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;My blog is: &lt;a href="http://lauraslefthook.wordpress.com/"&gt;http://lauraslefthook.wordpress.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I feature an Etsyhooker each week, show off my creations, share information about ASL, share children's book finds, and a few odds and ends.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-7616462586983403888?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/7616462586983403888/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=7616462586983403888' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7616462586983403888'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/7616462586983403888'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/featured-etsy-seller-of.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~LaurasLeftHook'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA_XYd268QI/AAAAAAAAAFM/d1BUrAKhGzI/s72-c/il_75x75_23119775.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-8288965050986093796</id><published>2008-04-21T14:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-21T14:53:53.048-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Infant Snap Clips</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA0MRwu5irI/AAAAAAAAAE0/L7oN8_lxi5w/s1600-h/100_1222.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SA0MRwu5irI/AAAAAAAAAE0/L7oN8_lxi5w/s320/100_1222.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191819444706970290" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tiff705.etsy.com"&gt;www.tiff705.etsy.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;These are infant snap clips, one of my favorite items to make!

I am having a free shipping sale for a few days. Hopefully it will bring me a few sales!&lt;br /&gt;So I have been toying with the idea of shipping internationally. What does everyone else do? How expensive is it? I think I would benefit from it for sure, more sales I bet. Just wondering what others do.... any thoughts?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;OK check out my sale!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS~ This is a picture of me pumped up for my free shipping sale!!!

Check out Vana's AWESOME items!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;1. Tell us a little bit about yourself:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My name is Vana and I am the owner and creator of Le Papier Studio, a one of a kind service of customized + handmade stationary and invitations.&lt;br /&gt;Le Papier Studio launched as a need for me to express myself through design at the end of a busy day. After a lot of thought was put into it, Le Papier Studio was born.&lt;br /&gt;So far, I have been blessed to have the support of my family and friends, and I hope to continue my venture as I discover the ins and outs of the business side of my love for design... and challenging myself throughout the other aspects of life...such as being a mother to my wonderful, energetic 3 year old son and a loving wife to my husband and soul mate.&lt;br /&gt;For a closer look at my work and daily life, please visit my blog:http://www.lepapierstudio.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;2. How long have you been creating:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been making stationery and invitations in the last 5 years. It all started with my wedding invitations and continued slowly since than.I have been making more only in the last 6 months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;3. Are you a full time crafter? What else do you do?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I work from home, part-time as an architect and do the craft in the evenings or on weekends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;4. Do you offer custom orders?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes. All of my orders are custom, personalized per your liking. I love creating all the different designs and personalizing per each client.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;5. What is your favorite thing to make?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love making children’s silhouettes, and using them in stationery, prints, or even room décor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;6. How did you get into this business?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have always had an eye for design. Going through 6 years of architecture school will do that to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;7. Anything new and exciting we should be looking forward to?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep checking in. Every day I like to create something new. Something I will be working more now are children’s prints, with silhouettes of course.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-8806371439272075857?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/8806371439272075857/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=8806371439272075857' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/8806371439272075857'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/8806371439272075857'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/featured-etsy-seller-of-week-le-papier.html' title='Featured Etsy Seller of the Week~ Le Papier Designs'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SAfSZfYIoBI/AAAAAAAAAEg/nSQK7XtBBTc/s72-c/silouete.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-5979169098467638023</id><published>2008-04-13T17:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-18T16:57:57.435-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Pattern kick</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.tiff705.etsy.com/"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5188891655331684290" style="width: 226px; cursor: pointer; height: 170px;" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SAKld_YIn8I/AAAAAAAAAD4/sMR1SrU394E/s320/100_1157.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SAKlM_YIn7I/AAAAAAAAADw/ZzTF-ekXjnc/s1600-h/100_1035.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5188891363273908146" style="width: 223px; cursor: pointer; height: 168px;" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SAKlM_YIn7I/AAAAAAAAADw/ZzTF-ekXjnc/s320/100_1035.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.tiff705.etsy.com/"&gt;www.tiff705.etsy.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have added another pattern to my esty shop. This one is for a little ladybug. This pattern is super easy to make. It is the perfect project for any beginner! I have also added a pattern for the perfect pouch! I love this thing! I made myself a pink one. It can hold a dozen items! I use mine as a wallet and am currently working on making one for my camera. Take a look in my etsy shop for these items! I will be adding a pattern for a mini dog. Oh she is cute! I am really enjoying making patterns. I think it is what I am going to do for awhile!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, if you would ever be interested in testing a pattern for me, let me know! I have one tester, my good friend Judy from jujubeanbouitquebows, but I think it would be good to have another tester also! Judy has some great patterns in her shop also! I have tested those, as you can see Sasha, in my etsy shop is made from Judy's pattern. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-5979169098467638023?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/5979169098467638023/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=5979169098467638023' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/5979169098467638023'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/5979169098467638023'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/pattern-kick.html' title='Pattern kick'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/SAKld_YIn8I/AAAAAAAAAD4/sMR1SrU394E/s72-c/100_1157.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-4628801396347365827</id><published>2008-04-11T07:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-27T16:31:55.211-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Meet my FranknFoo!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R_91R9EeldI/AAAAAAAAADo/j1U4bYVWkQY/s1600-h/franknfoo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187994247065671122" style="" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R_91R9EeldI/AAAAAAAAADo/j1U4bYVWkQY/s320/franknfoo.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R_91LdEelcI/AAAAAAAAADg/cvyMNzNpmlc/s1600-h/fifi.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187994135396521410" style="" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R_91LdEelcI/AAAAAAAAADg/cvyMNzNpmlc/s320/fifi.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;These are my babies.....

It's something we've been wanting to do for awhile and when my mother quit her job, we knew it was the right time. God willing things go as we plan and this little dream will become a huge success!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;Are you a full time crafter?What else do you do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Unfortunately I'm not a full time crafter, I wish was though. I think I'm more of a part-time crafter. My children are my full time job. Thank God my grandmother is here right now so things have been a little easier and I'm trying to work a little bit more on my crafts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;How long have you been crafting?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I guess I've been crafting for a few years, I've always enjoyed making things. It's never been a full time hobby, it was something that I made once in awhile or when I had to do it in school. The past three years is when I've gotten into it the most, since I've been at home full time since I had my son.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;What is your favorite thing to make?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I like working with ribbon (my new addiction) but the thing I enjoy the most is working with paper, it's relaxing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;What or who is your inspiration?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I would say I get inspiration from several things it depends on what I want to create and also the people around me and my Hip Girl friends. Also, when I accomplish something or get to finish a project, I get it more inspiration to create more because I feel proud of myself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;Do you offer custom orders?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Without a doubt! Feel free to ask, we will do everything within our reach to satisfy your custom needs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;Anything new and exciting that you are working on for your shop?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, there are a few ideas we have, but nothing is ready so far. Hopefully, when my mother comes back from her vacation, we will sit down and make a decision on what new items we will be adding. Don't forget to check our shop for new and exciting things!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4816428840560279499-4240255472086894680?l=tiff705.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/feeds/4240255472086894680/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4816428840560279499&amp;postID=4240255472086894680' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/4240255472086894680'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4816428840560279499/posts/default/4240255472086894680'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tiff705.blogspot.com/2008/04/here-is-featured-etsy-member-of-week.html' title='Featured Etsy member of the Week~ Dolcefarfalla'/><author><name>tiff705</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05490215342629448113</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2L7s18307t8/S2Cd6fLaJzI/AAAAAAAAAQE/fT42TAGpM2Y/S220/DSC00733.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R_ObvFquTjI/AAAAAAAAACQ/hGWXHCVWgxw/s72-c/il_430xN.22176061.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816428840560279499.post-9112246488887197492</id><published>2008-03-27T10:28:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-27T11:06:12.621-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Featured Etsy Member~jujubeanboutiquebows</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R-vhelquTfI/AAAAAAAAAAw/RgnmCoCrHiU/s1600-h/il_75x75.21129804.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R-vhjVquTgI/AAAAAAAAAA4/9DP1JJhaOvg/s1600-h/il_75x75.18925072.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5182483570109599202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 231px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 216px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="156" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_2L7s18307t8/R-vhWVquTeI/AAAAAAAAAAo/t8qXG-3ba5I/s320/il_155x125.19557637.jpg" width="192" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Here is the featured Etsy member of the week&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jujubeanboutiquebows.etsy.com/"&gt;http://www.jujubeanboutiquebows.etsy.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is my interview with her:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tell us a little bit about yourself:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm a SAHM of 3 crazy kids!
