Hoodies For Fall

InnerEvolution

sandmaiden

I have a bit of an obsession or love for hoodies and that is why I love when fall comes around! Fall means perfect hoodie weather! Yay!

The white hoodie is by InnerEvolution and I love the unique hood and neck on this sweater.

The brown hoodie is by Sandmaiden and I love the frills and feminine look to it.

Green Brown Red... YES!

So I had to share these purses with you ladies out there because I know that a good quality and affordable purse is some times hard to find. These purses are just to cute plus they are extremely affordable and I love it when things are affordable!

Please go to christystudio's Etsy shop to find even more great purses.
Plus I noticed there are a couple purses on sale! So take advantage of those great deals while they last!

Chalcedony Promotes Calm and Peace

I have been using a lot of the stone chalcedony in my designs for fall so I thought I would share some information on this beautiful and eclectic stone.

Chalcedony is one of my favorite stones because it comes in so many different colours. I love versatility! The most common colours of chalcedony are pale blue, yellow, brown or gray. Though chalcedony can come in all the colours of the rainbow.

The precious stone is made up of chalcedony, agates, jaspers, bloodstone, cornelian, onyx, and chrysoprase.

I always wonder what other people's favourite stones are. So feel free to leave a comment and tell us what your favorite stones are! I want to know!!! Mine is apatite because I just love the greenish blue colour!

I love to stumble upon amazing finds during my long day of "Etsying". I love even more when I can share them with everyone else.

These cute little booties are so adorable! I wish my son was still young enough to wear them. I found these in a lovely little shop called Infusion. She makes everything from bags to shoes and clothes. Her shop is really amazing. Go check her out! Her shop.

Writing Not So Hard After All

It gives you some step by step instructions and tips on writing those tricky descriptions for your item listings or making your blog post readable and eye catching, which every Etsian wants!

300 Shops

I am proud to announce I have reached the big number 300 in shops that have hearted my Etsy store. The 300th shop was a great gemstone supplier called Moonelighte. If you like good quality gemstones check her out!

I love checking how many people have hearted my shop every day and seeing the fabulous things that they all make. I also see other Etsy shops that have thousands of shop hearts and I hope to gain that heart mass some day! It feels so nice to know that someone at least meant to come back to your shop at some point in the future.

Yay for hearts!
