Auction on Tophatter!
So I recently found this great live auction site called Tophatter. Its fantastic. A couple times every day they have auctions for crafting things - Jewelry, clothes, home supplies, beauty supplies, also crafting supplies! Its fantastic! And its live auction so you bid then and there and win within a minute or two! No waiting around for hours to see if you've won!
Anyway, yesterday I sold my first piece of jewelry on it! I was thrilled! It was so exciting to see people actually bidding and commenting live on something I made! So fun!
I have another piece of jewelry coming up on March 23! Click here to see it (and others)! Its the Ocean sensory bracelet! You can also see it on etsy here! Its starting bid is at $6 and its retailed at over $25! So definitely go have a look! Plus Through Tophatter, I offer free shipping! Hurrah! So fun!
Anyway, if you are looking for a way to sell jewelry or are looking for a place to buy handmade jewelry at a fantastic price, definitely check out Tophatter! Its soooo worth it.

Awesome Sales for Black Friday!
This Christmas I have decided I want to do mostly "handmade" (whether by my or others) gifts. This is to help support other "creators" and also have more heartfelt gifts! Anyway, in my browsing of awesome shops for awesome ideas for gifts, it came to my mind that people might be searching the same as I am for black friday sales!

Crafting!
Lately I have been at a crafting stand still. I'm just starting back into school, just got back from a trip to Canada with my kids, in the middle of rearranging storage closets to try and get Christmas Decorations and snow gear out - its been hectic! I always feel at such a creative loss when I can't sit down and craft!
I'm really not the "every single day, sit down and craft" type. I know women like that, who make something new everyday, and I honestly idolize them! Haha! People like the girl from Naptime Journal. Oh my goodness How does she do it?! She is fantastic! I feel crafty just for looking at her blog!!
Or the Crafty Cupboard! Sometimes I just want to move back to Arizona to be her friend, and sneak peaks at the stuff she's doing (Then steal her ideas haha!).
However, I have to be honest - I'm a student again, I'm a full time mother, my husband is a student for part of the year plus he works. Sometimes, I need to give myself a break. If you are like me, please dont be so hard on yourself! Its hard work being a mom! And if you are trying to teach yourself to sew (like I am - I know straight lines haha!), or teaching yourself new jewelry making techniques (again like me), trying to go through the FLYlady program (more details on that in another post), or whatever your current situation where you are running around like a chicken with its head cut off, go easy on yourself!! Its something I need to learn as well! Sometimes being crafty means simply going on one of these many wonderful blogs and getting ideas for your next project. Sometimes it means just coloring with your 2 year old. Smile! Keep calm and get your crafty on!
Be Unique! Be Yourself! Be Beautiful you!
