Holiday Gift Guide For The Super Savvy Buyer

One of my iPad Covers has been included in another Etsy Treasury, this one called, Holiday Gift Guide For The Super Savvy Buyer by AllisonTMorgan.  Hooray!

  

 iPad Cover - Tiny Dots Brown & Tan

The cover is made from a cotton print, with a color palette includes brown and tan dots and lined with a matching brown twill cotton.

I used a recycled button for the flap closure.

 

 

 

Yea! Another Treasury

I've been so busy, I forgot to mention that I received a convo that my Sage Wildflowers Clutch has been included in a Treasury.  

I have now been in three Treasuries within the past few weeks, for a total of four.

Now if only I could get to the front page!   You can see mine clutch on the bottom row...

Please visit and enjoy the smartly titled, Bags, Purses, Clutches and Totes Treasury, by StoneFeather.

...I have added a listing the other day to my Esty Shop: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=13537512.

Last week there was a post in the Etsy Forums regarding the Treasury, someone wanted to know why it always seems that the same artists appear in Treasuries that are then post on the home front page. A successful artist responded that it was a combination of a great product, but most importantly she has great photos which is why folk pick her items for a treasury. (Wish I had Bookmarked that post.)

So, as I am looking at this pic, I am still debating the white background verse a texture or printed background. I think this pic looks washed-out and is just, oh how to say it....boring, unimaginative and doesn't shout out, "Buy Me!" I added this item on 7/20/2008 and in four days I have had four views.

Oh how the Picture Taking Gods mock me!
