Busy night on Etsy

'Sometimes it's fun to get DIRTY! And then sometimes it's fun to get CLEAN!' by GwynnsGifts

Life is what you make of it and I think people would have more fun if they just got dirty every once in awhile. You can always get clean again.

I received a text in the wee hours this morning telling me that I had been featured in a treasury on Etsy. Heather of  GwynnsGifts put together a list that featured all things about dirt and way to clean up that dirt. She featured my Edgar Allan Poe art bottle as part of her list. Who knew that there was so much dirt on Etsy?

This morning, when I checked my Etsy shop, I discovered that listed on the Activity Feed, was a second treasury that also featured my Edgar Allan Poe art bottle. This one was created by BadAssBunny. It has many quirky, interesting items featured in it. She titled her list Les choses que j'aime. I have absolutely NO idea what it means, but it looks interesting. LOL

Taking a header

All of the little goodies that I ordered lately are starting to arrive so I get to PLAY! I just finished this steampunk necklace and wrote a little story to go with it. It's fun to develop a story that fits the pieces. Here is the story that I wrote to go with this one:


One evening at the pub, his friends challenged him to a race across France. What could he say? He couldn't let his friends know that he didn't even own a bicycle. He had to borrow his Dad's old bicycle. The bicycle kind of scared him. It was one of those darn penny-farthing bicycles. He had taken so many headers on that stupid contraption. The worst spill was right in front of a group of young women that he had been trying to impress. He was utterly humiliated. Now, he had the possibility of going over the handlebars in front of everyone . . .

Wholly Devoted

I like to give my necklaces a name and have called this one, "Wholly Devoted". I've been having fun playing with all the new little trinkets that I've been picking up at estate sales and online. In case you are unaware, online shopping can be a very dangerous activity. May I add, very, very dangerous? LOL


I have a multitude of packages that I have already received and have more on their way. Every morning, I am like a puppy dog watching out of the window for my mailman to stop by.


For this necklace, I used a portion of a vintage rosary, a religious medal, and the most adorable tiny glass vial. I had gone to an estate sale and picked up a really old German Catholic book of novenas. It is from 1841. Since the book as in bad condition (obviously well-used), it didn't bother me to remove pages and even (dare I say it?) rip them apart.


I am hoping to put together more in the next few days. Wish me luck!
