Friday Flash Sale #7 - Featuring The Newbies

I've recently introduced a few newbies into the shop.

Clothespins & clothesline. And that's what today's special is all about.

- FLASH SALE FRIDAY -

Imperfection seems to abound, so I've put together larger batches of my Imperfect Beauties.

They are still lovingly created with paint and brush, then tucked into a muslin bag.

Oh, So Fabulous Teams - A Refreshed Look #02

For my 2nd treasury on Etsy, I celebrated sellers in the Etsy teams that I belonged to.

It was originally posted on May 26, 2011, but has since emptied of its photos.

This is what is left . . .

Oh, So Fabulous Teams by Corrinne Quinn

Unfortunately, I don't recall what teams were used. That's why one should list them.

(That's a note to self - wink.)

To refresh it, I chose four that I enjoy participating in:

Etsy Promotion & Advertising, Shabby & Chic, Shiny Happy People, and All In One.

Oh, So Fabulous Teams - Refresh #02 by Corrinne Quinn

Are you involved in any teams? Share them in the comments or - better yet - create an Etsy treasury.

It's a fun way to discover new shops and promote your fellow artists and crafters.

And if you aren't a part of a team, join one or simply visit its members.

G Is For . . . (Blogging From A To Z Challenge 2014)

Welcome to Blogging From A To Z with Pin & Tack.

Each day is assigned a letter to focus your writing on.

Today's letter is . . .

Glitter & Ganache. I couldn't pick one, so this post has a bonus G, yo!

Do you buy your glitter? Pshah! Hee hee. Just kidding. I do, too.
But you can make it yourself and it's edible.

DIY: Homemade Glitter

Now, you should add your glitter to stuff. Like a box. Or you can buy it.
(This one was not made with salty glitz, my friends.)

Blue Topaz Glitz Heart Trinket Box

Ganache is easy peasy, especially with this #recipe.

Easy Vegan Ganache Recipe

Use your homemade ganache to top cupcakes. Yum, yum!

And I hope to see you tomorrow: It's all about the letter H!

C Is For . . . (Blogging From A To Z Challenge 2014)

Welcome to Blogging From A To Z with Pin & Tack.

It's all about writing about a different letter each day in April.

Today's letter is . . .

Well, this one was easy. Can you guess what I chose? It might be shameful, but I choose to say it's shameless self-promotion. You've been warned, but I think you'll enjoy it either way. (Fingers-crossed.)

Clothespins is my word of the day and it's also Pin & Tack's specialty.

For today only, any purchase from the shop will garner double donations for Farm Sanctuary.

A Is For . . . (Blogging From A To Z Challenge 2014)

Welcome to Blogging From A To Z series with Pin & Tack.

It's all about challenging yourself to write based on a letter.

Today's letter is . . .

My automatic thought was "apples" - Ha ha ha. Not very creative, right? Well, I don't mind going with the easy, but I decided to try a few different words.

My inspiration is handmade. I adore all things handmade. I spend a little too much time checking out others' craftiness. Now, I can justify it. I must look 'cause I need some As to share with you!

Anchor

Apron
