Happy Inauguration Day!!

I woke up at 9:00 am, to watch Barack H. Obama, become the 44th President of the United States of America. That's all. :)

President Barack H. Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He won!! He won!!
This is a historical moment. I am so happy that I was able to share this with my family. Although, going to a party would have been fun too. lol.

I went on Etsy last night to celebrate with my Etsy friends. People were so happy, international Etsians were just as happy. You all know there had to be one hater in the crowd to try to spoil everything. I am surprised I didn't get muted. lol.

Now it's time for the real work to begin. WE are going to have to move forward as one country to get things done. I am sick of the separation. We can do this.

Eye love this Etsy seller

I frequent the forums a lot. I have met the most interesting and talented sellers by participating in them.

I came across 5erg, while responding to her thread. She is a wonderful painter and jewelry maker. She was asking fellow Etsians, to email pics of their eyes so she could paint them. I sent her mine and waited to see what she would create.

Well, I woke up yesterday morning, got ready for work, checked my email, and saw a convo from her, which contained the listing for my eye. I came home from work and someone bought the painting, 5 hours after it was listed. How cool is that?

Isn't it pretty?



Here is another fellow Etsian, weirdbuglady.




5erg, is really talented. Take a look at her shop , blog , and DeviantART Gallery . It will be worth it, trust me.

New Chat Feature

I have added a new chat feature to my blog. Anyone who knows me, knows I love to talk. So, if you have questions about my jewelry or you just want to chat, you can reach me in the chat box. It is connected to my Yahoo Messenger, so I will get it immediately. How cool is that? :)

More updates to come.

smooches xoxo

Rock the Vote

Guess what tomorrow is? Come on guess..It's Election Day.

I don't know about you, but I am so ready for it to be over. I am tired of the negative ads, I am tired of the blame game, I can go on and on. It is very important that you get out there and vote. I don't care who you vote for, I know who I am voting for (look to your right:) ). Too many people have fought and died for the right to vote. Don't let that struggle and fight be in vain.

This election is historical on so many levels. We could have the first African American President or the first female Vice President.

What are you going to tell your kids about this point in history? That you went out and voted, volunteered, etc.. or you stayed at home and watched T.V., because you didn't feel like waiting in line to vote. Which would you choose?


Get up, Get out, and Vote.

Politics on Etsy: Good, Bad, & Ugly

Well, I frequent the Etsy forums a lot, particularly the ETC. section. When it comes to politics it can get very heated in there. I admit, I have been apart of the fray sometimes. When it comes to politics, I can be very opinionated.
Lately, I have realized that maybe I need to take a break from the political threads. That has been a hard thing to do though.

Some might say, that participating in political threads can hurt your store.

I personally, could care less if someone chooses not to buy from me, because of my political or social views. I sell a lot of my jewelry off line and I want, to of course see my online store succeed, but if that means I have to hide who I am to do that, then oh well.

If someone has something in their store that I like, I would buy from them. I could care less if they agree with me or not when it comes to politics*. I have meet strong, smart, and supportive members in forums, from both parties. I am pretty sure that I wouldn't have, if I didn't participate.

So, for all the newbies, don't be nervous to voice your opinons.
By the way I am a proud, unapologetic supporter of Barack H. Obama II:)





* However, lol, there are like two people in particular who, hell would have to freeze over, melt, and freeze over again before I would ever consider, buying from them.

New Layout

Hi people,
I updated my template, because the one before was to dark. I wanted to brighten it up a bit.
I didn't know however, when you get a new template that it erases all of you widgets.
So, all of the links I added are gone. I will put them back up soon. Promise.

peace out
