Etsy, Hearts, Hope & little birdies

Just a quick update... I've got some valentines crafts planned this week that I should have some fun tutorials later in the week... but for now..and I AM going to finish my latest Moda Bake Shop project this week.. (yes I am, I am.. I will NOT be distracted by the internet!!)

Traci has listed her Soldered Charm Pendants in the etsy shop

Go run and grab them before she figures out she is not charging enough for them.

Traci is too modest, so I'll "toot her horn" for her.  I've seen them in person (I own a few) they are very well made, plus DANG cute! I am so in love with this little birdie one.

I wear mine layered on my necklaces with other charms and pendants... I have some for a few different holidays and love when it's time to pull out the ones for that season.

This is a picture of me wearing them (she didn't make the round one) last fall.  She puts them on lobster clasps so you just "swap" the pendants on and off... and I bet if you ask really nice, she might even make one for you with your initial on it! (just click request custom item in the shop)

Second..

In case you haven't heard, there is an etsy shop set up to donate to Doctors without Borders, who are desperately trying to do all that they can in Haiti.

100% of the proceeds of the shop go right to the charity.  Myself and hundreds of crafters have donated items to the shop. Check it out and keep checking back often.

Third...

Many have asked, and I have an actual sewn item ready to list in the shop this week. No, its not the Love Pouches already made... but still something fun for Valentines day. So keep an eye on the shop. I also have one more pattern that is almost done.. (it should not be hard to guess what it is, there's a big hint on my blog... anyone want to?)

Fourth...

Here are a couple of Valentines posts from the "past"... just incase you have red hearts & crafty love ideas swirling in your head like I do.
