OMG, my first Etsy Treasury

OK, after trying a bunch of times a while back (and giving up not long after) I've finally got an Etsy Treasury, yay! It was super easy to get, so I'm thinking it's open slather now with treasuries, none of this waiting around until the sun aligns with the moon and the magic number of 324 is reached (or whatever the system was before).

It's called Winter Warmers and here's the spiel:

It's winter in Australia and as much as I'm sick of it, there's also a lot I like about it...woolen things & knitting, heaters, umbrellas & rain and also the feeling that spring is just around the corner.

Catch it while it lasts!

Ohh, what a great lil' treasury ...



.. thanks for including me, Laura!

Cushion mania

More market news (can you tell I'm living, breathing & sleeping market preparations?) - I have made a bunch of cushions, to assist with couch-lounging through this rather freezing winter.

There's a handful made with combinations of my fabrics -


And some featuring four of Volker Haug's lights (small and large cushions), from our wee collaboration -


And can you believe I am still chasing an Etsy Treasury spot? My plan to get one keeps on being foiled, sometimes by mere minutes. But I will persist, even if it means finding a whole new bunch of things to put in the Treasury (I'm sure all the things in my pretend Treasury will be sold before I actually get one!)

If I had an Etsy Treasury...

..this is what I'd put in it.


I still don't quite understand how to actually get a Treasury (counting hundreds of lists and waiting hours?) but have decided I really want one. So far I've failed in my lame-o attempts, but have compiled a collection that's ready and waiting to be Treasurised (using the poster sketch tool) should an attempt succeed. Too much fun.

Red is the theme, hinting at warmth needed inside to deal with the chilly winter here is Melbourne. Brrr.

Thanks for the inspiration, makers of red things!

etWow, my elephant featured in an Etsy Treasury (by jennadesigns) that I've been able to see BEFORE it expires - yay! This treasury's super cool - it features type-related objects.



Thanks Jenna :)
