New Month, New Start - I am on Etsy!

With the start of a new month of July, I found fun at - Etsy! Etsy is the world's largest handmade market place and you can buy and sell handmade or vintage items, art and supplies there!

I am now officially on Etsy and will add items from my blogshop - Crystals & Gems onto Etsy. I will also be uploading new designs simultaneously on the blog and on Etsy. No worries about deciding where to buy your accessories from. You can get them both here or at Etsy.

However, I would have a special supplies section only in Etsy. So, for those of you who are interested in getting some of the the pretty beads or gems I used in my creations, you gotta head down to Etsy! Also, I will sometimes introduce specials & promotions that might apply only to the blogshop or only to Etsy, so make sure you visit both places to find the best bargains!

Thanks for staying around... I promise there will be more...

See ya soon!
