MARCH SALE AT MY ETSY STORES

I am advertising during March on the Spring and Main showcases at Etsy.com. To celebrate all my items will be discounted by 10% even newly listed items. I will also be extending an invitation to buyers to add me as a favourite or add my store to their blog and for doing this, I will make purchases of $12 or more discount by 15% instead of 10%. My cascadebead store I think has a lower purchase amount. So if you are looking at this, take a look at my stores and take up these great offers. Sale begins March 1 and goes to March 18th AEST. Thanks:)
All prices are in USD.

PS

The baby isn't listed!! Its the hair band she is wearing:) The baby model is my gorgeous niece who is 9 weeks old, isn't she just a cutie:)

SOME OF MY RECENT ETSY LISTINGS

Here are some items i have listed recently on my etsy web shops. I haven't had another sale:( But I hope more will come in the future, I just have to stick at it really.

SICK IN SUMMER

I am currently recovering from a bout of bronchitis. I can't believe i got bronchitis in summer!!! It;s usually associated with winter or at least the cooler seasons, but not summer! It has been a rather strange summer I have to say, especially for Sydney. February is usually the hottest month of the year. I was pregnant with Claire and Christopher during February and I remember stinken hot days of 40C plus. Liam was born in Janurary but I do remember a hot Feburary as i was still recovering from my C-section and I couldn't have a swim when i wanted to.
Anyway, the weather has not been all that hot, which is nice actually, its nice to be hot but not unbearably hot!

FIRST ETSY SALE FOR THE NEW YEAR

Well, I have actually been feeling rather crook since Thursday last week as I have come down with Bronchitis. It is a horrible sickness to have.You are all achey, throat is sore and croaky. Anyway on monday I had a nice surprise that brightened my day. I got my first Etsy Sale for the year. The above item was purchased by an Australian. I hope many more will follow. I created the pendant and attached the beads to the chain. If anyone is interested I can always make another, but some beads will not be the same. I will also note that I am currently working with some children's boutiques in the sydney area, to stock my work. Its very exciting and I do hope they all say yes, and I can let you all know where my items can be purchased. I will keep you up to date:)

MY CHEEKY CHICKEN

Have you seen "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"? The latest one , starring Johnny Depp.Well if you have, remember the line that Willy Wonka says to Mike TV, "You know you really shouldn't mumble, because I can't hear a single word your saying!!!"
Well, my daughter, who is the eldest said something rather funny the other day. We were heading off to school and she was having a bit of a dummy spit and was mumbling away in the back of the car and I said my golden line from Willy Wonka, thinking it would make her laugh, instead I got this:
"I am not the mumbler, you are the mumbler, that's why you are called mum!"

Well, I held back the laughter as she was not very happy, and I didn't want to make the situation worse. But I had to share this, it was such a cheeky but rather clever thing to say:)

Etsy Shops

I have two shops on Esty where I sell what I create. The first shop is for beads and jewelry for ages 18+ and my other shop is for children and I sell felt creatures, hair accessories, and jewelry for ages 4+.
