Back Again

My Etsy Shop is now open again after summer stock taking and my summer vacation!

 Yay to shop open again. Boo to end of summer vacation :-(  More updates to follow....

Taking Stock & Time Off

Upper Cliff Path Howth, 2012

Hey there, enjoying the unusual Irish sunshine and extended dry weather? Long may it last.

I am temporarily closing my Etsy shop for annual stock take and a wee break from it all until August. See you then!

Don't forget the all important sunscreen folks! And if you need a natural after sun soother here's an article I wrote last year that may help: Natural After Sun Remedy

More Summer Treasury Features

A big Thank You for the recent features in Etsy treasuries. 

I am always so grateful to be included in these lists made by fellow Etsy people. They are an art form in themselves.

 TREASURY BLITZING WEEKEND!!

And this weekend the Etsy Ireland Team took part in a friendly treasury blitzing duel with the German Team  Promo Team De. Read a little about it HERE

I made about 11 treasuries, not bad at all, though my colleague Petra of Petra's Creations showed us all how it's done and made a whopping 35!!  I was featured in about 45 to 50 treasuries - I counted at some point but gave up on it. Thank you to all who featured me and all who took part in this game.
