I was in complete awe when, as I was scanning the titles in Etsy’s Treasury that I came upon a list with my name! There it is was - “
Clinkscales“. Sarah of
The Beaded Lily had created a treasury for me showcasing my new
Art Deco earrings and showing off some of
my favorite artists on Etsy. She added a few of her own to round out the selection.
Have a look now, because it will disappear on Monday night.
Sarah started a blog not very long ago, but it has quickly become a blog to be reckoned with! I can tell she really puts her heart into everything she writes. And if you see her beading, like her beautiful Rose Distilled Necklace below, you can tell she puts her heart into that too. She also devotes a lot of her time moderating the Etsy BeadWeaver’s Street Team.

Here is
my design for the EBW Challenge for August -
Art Deco. (Thanks
Staci for choosing such a cool theme!) I researched Art Deco jewelry and I knew I had to recreate the clean lines so popular during this period. Challenge voting begins August 9th on the
EBW Blog.

Thank you so much to Anna of
A Rose by Name for awarding my blog with the Sweet Home Blog Award. I have chosen not to pass this on to any other bloggers. There are just too many wonderful ones to choose from. Thank you again, Anna!
EDIT: I would also love to thank Ileana of Enchanted Beads for giving me the same award! Thank you so much, Ileana!

I found myself with a treasury last night, and considering that EBW is currently voting on their July Challenge, I knew what I would use to fill my treasury. And I honestly believe that Shakespeare *would* approve. (Or at least his sister would!) This treasury will be active until Monday morning (7/14) and you can vote on the challenge on the EBW blog for three more days. So hurry to both! Leave comments and clicks and vote for your favorite!

Happy 4th of July to all Americans out there! Many people spend their holiday at the lake, but we chose to have a garage sale this year. If you’ve never had a garage sale, it’s a LOT of work! We were lucky today, the high was only 91 degrees. J’s mom and sister also had stuff in our sale. I couldn’t have collected all of these lovelies by myself. 
Also, I was able to grab a treasury Wednesday night/Thursday morning. I love the artwork on Etsy and include it just about every time I make a treasury. Of course, I also have to include some of the incredible beadwork from the EBW group. This treasury will be active until Saturday night around 7:20 pm (eastern). If you get a chance, stop by, leave me a comment and check out this amazing work.
