I’ve been messing around with my blog. I added a new blogger to my blog roll and linked her picture. Then I was having so much fun with that that I linked pictures of every blog that I could. You might see a picture of you or your avatar to the right. [...]

I just bought some memory wire, and I love it! I just turn the wire against it’s natural pull and then bead away.
Memory wire holds its shape. So you don’t have to clasp the bracelet or worry about how it will fit. It remembers its shape. When laid flat, the bracelets measure [...]

Between Etsy, Swap-bot, and Bookmooch, I send and receive many packages a week. And, often I’ll come home to a pile of boxes and padded envelopes waiting for me on the couch. Today was no exception. I had a shiny red bubble mailer from France and a brown paper box without a return address.
I focused [...]

I went ahead and accepted the first letter U bid from Etsy Alchemy that I told you about. I got several offers in less than 24 hours. I really enjoyed the process. [...]
