A Christmas Treasury

I was on Etsy.com at the right time last night. I haven't been there for many weeks, but was able to procure a treasury! As you can see from the small screenshot, it highlights renderings of the birth of Christ.

For those readers not familiar with Etsy treasuries, they are an opportunity for members to 'curate' a page with 12 windows. You can select anything that is listed on Etsy--either a theme, a color or some other common factor, or randomly list your favorite things. They are much-sought and difficult to get! Treasuries are then ranked by the number of visits, the number of 'clicks' (when individual squares are clicked on to read an item description or see a larger view) and comments. I'm on page 15 now out of 22. I would love to see this treasury make it to page 1.

All visits help move it along and I'd sure appreciate some 'treasury love' from my blog readers.

(You have to be a member of Etsy and logged in if you want to leave a comment, but anyone can visit without registering on the site.)

I am not listed in the treasury, so this is not self-promotion...I just wanted to highlight a number of artists who have skillfully depicted baby Jesus - in the spirit of the Christmas season.

Thanks for your help!

New Listings at Etsy

Here are two of the latest listings in my Etsy shop:














Rose Picket Magnet











Victorian Magnet

Though only 2" x 3", this gem has over 130 paper filigree pieces on it and required hours of effort!








A new item will be added daily (well, that's my intention anyway!) Thanks for looking!

My First Etsy Treasury!

Until now, I have resisted 'treasury fever' at Etsy. But this morning I was in the right place at the right time, and I got one! Click on the pic above to see it all.

This is a selection of tea-time lovelies, mostly from my new team -- Cottage Style Street Team.
Find more tea-licious cottage/vintage goodness at Etsy by typing CSSTeam in the search box.

I'd appreciate any 'love' given to these tea-time treasures. Stop on by and leave a friendly comment!

And don't forget to search Esty for my other awesome team... SHEteam...loads of talented ladies with a wonderful selection of hand-made, quality gifts and items. Check out the thumbnails on the right side bar! ------>

EDIT 5/26/08: Well- it has expired - short-lived but exciting. I made it to the first page, and was within 6 from the top before sliding back to #10 position. Still, not bad for my first treasury. Thanks to everyone who came, clicked and commented! If I do another, my goal will be to get picked for Etsy front page...who DOESN'T want that honor for his/her treasury?!
