New Beach Cover Ups!

So I'm in the midst of listing 5 new beach cover ups/belly dance hip scarves. These are bright, light colors that will be great for the summer. Gotta say I'm tempted to wear one to the beach today... But I'll be good and keep them for my customers. ;)

Have a great day everybody! Get out there and enjoy that sunshine.

First International Sale!

I've recently started listing hand dyed cotton in my Etsy store. In fact, the first pieces went up about a week ago. I woke up this morning to find that one of my coral pieces had not only made it into a Treasury, but that gorgeous Peachy Treasury had made it to the front page of Etsy! On top of THAT, someone in Barcelona, Spain purchased my item. So, I've made the front page twice now, AND had my first International sale. Yay! Here's the Treasury I was in:


I think Fairyfolk did a fantastic job on the Treasury. (And so did the folks at Etsy, it would seem!) So, many thanks to her!

Off to work on an organizational project that I'm right smack in the middle of... I am surrounded by silk scarves and really need to have it straightened out so that I can think clearly again.

Have a great day everybody! This has been a great start to the week! :)

(Don't Get) Crazy Punch Recipe!

Ok, so we had a little shindig this weekend, and I wanted some punch. Much was discussed regarding forthcoming punch - mostly me: "ew, I don't like that one, or that one, or that one..." etc, etc. So I made it up. Purely based on my tastes, and to heck with the rest of the party-goers. And it was a hit! So here goes:



2 cans Frozen Lemonade, thawed
2 cans water
2/3 bottle Cranberry Juice
2liter Ginger Ale
1 bottle vodka (or whatever your limit is to keep you from getting too crazy.)
2 large sprigs mint

This tastes best if you let it sit for a while with the mint, and add the ginger ale just prior to serving.

And for all those people who did not know what the heck we were quoting - be sure to click the (Don't Get) Crazy link above!

ENJOY!
