Happy Easter hunting! (No fools about it)

Get your virtual baskets ready! starting this Sunday, April 1st and running through Easter Sunday; my etsy shop will be hosting an Easter egg hunt! Of course it's not your usual mad dash in the tall grass but, I bet it will be just as exciting. And no this isn't really just an big April fools... in case you were wondering.

How it works:
- Each day 1 item in my shop will have an Easter egg somewhere among its photos.
- The picture with the egg will also have a coupon code for you.
- This code is only active for 24 hours and can only be used on that specific item.
- Each day the egg will move and once found/purchased the egg for that day will be gone! So don't forget to check your favorite items!

The coupon code will give you a whopping 30% off AND free shipping! Could it be much better? I'm excited about this and hope to see you all participating. Happy Easter and Happy Hunting!

Show Me Spring!

It's been a long time coming but it's finally here. I gathered all my courage and started posting my rings and earrings to Etsy again! I am pretty proud of these, I really love them and intend to snag some for my own jewelry box! So here are a couple I already posted...



The rest will be trickling into the shop slowly and you can get a sneak peak at those on my flickr page.

Not so glass slipper

I am on a mission to find the perfect slipper! I have been scouring Ravelry and even done some google searches. There are plenty that look nice in their picture but the pattern doesn't seem to stand up to it. Is it just me or does it feel similar to the smoke and mirrors of the legendary "myspace pic" -i.e. taking a picture in the most extreme downward angle to provide the most slimming possible- ? Well aside from that I've found two contenders. I may end up combining them somehow. There are elements of each that I both like and dislike. So it would go something like ... 'make the sole like this one, make the sides like that one, make the heel like this one, make the cuff like that one..." Confusing right? I thought so too. Time for eye candy? Yes.
This first one I like A LOT the pattern is Moon Socks by DROPS design - They always come up with some of the cutest stuff right?
The second here is Desert Boots by Elise Brand. I like the look of both and I've knit up one of both and wear them around the house together (haha what makes it funnier is one is in rusty orange and the other in a deep eggplant purple). Why you ask? To compare how they feel as I wear them around, see how I like them. I think once I decide how I like them best I will compile the pattern for Ravelry... Just in case there are any other's out there with mismatched slippers.
