New Jersey Etsians {Giveaways}

If you love browsing Etsy and often think: "My little girl/boy would love that!" or "That piece would be perfect for my wall!" or "Ooooooh, I want those earrings!" - keep reading to learn how you can get your hands on some of the awesome creations you see everyday.


Recently, I joined a team on Etsy: New Jersey Etsians
The team's goal is "to support and promote each other, and help each other grow as an artist." I have felt so welcomed in their environment of friendly and talented creators. After just a few weeks, I have seen them create and suggest ways to exhibit their crafts effectively. There is a genuine feeling of support on the discussion boards, which I absolutely adore!

Pink for the Cause {Treasury}

I'm sure this won't be the only Treasury inspired by the color Pink.  However, it was inspired this time by October's Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  The Susan G. Komen Foundation is something a friend of mine fought hard to bring awareness to during her 14 month battle.  I do whatever I can to help spread the word about this outstanding organization.  I'm proud to wear pink and display it in anyway possible all year round.

Here's just a few pink items that caught my eye the other day:

Birthday Fun {Real Event}

Had a great time with my family celebrating my sister's birthday. She loved the birthday banner and cupcake display I created. "It's so FUN!"

We even took the little man to the park to ride his trike and play in the playground. Great day, indeed!
