New Listings Coming Soon!

Although my actual mosaic time has been cut quite drastically by the current promotion happening on Etsy, I do still have some things to share and list.

The sweetest smile appeared on this elephant as I was cleaning off the grout and I noticed the placement of the flower on its head gave it not only an eye but a tiny hint of a smile. How cool is that?!

You all are getting a sneak peek at her cute grin since she's not yet listed. Isn't she cute?

I've changed my mind about not listing the crosses on my site. Originally I started with the plan to mosaic and/or paint all 25 MDF crosses and bring them with me in November when I do a church craft fair. After looking at the ones I've done so far, it can't hurt to list them and see if they sell. If they don't, they will go with me in November. Meanwhile, a few people have liked what I've done with them so far, which is why they are going to get listed. I'll share them as I get them on Etsy and Zibbet. Hopefully all of these will get listed tomorrow!

Believe it or not, I've still been having a lot of problems with this summer cold. Perhaps it's not as much of a surprise to anyone but me, but I've got a sinus infection that just won't go away. It's not all that bad; I can function, but it is quite bothersome, just the same. It has been hot, too, making it hard for me to go out for photo shoots with the mosaics as I had planned. I am guessing cooler weather will be a good time to do that since I am always physically bothered by the heat.

Not feeling all that well between the summer cold and the humidity makes it harder some days to keep up with everything going on around me. I try to share all the beautiful treasuries I'm in on my Facebook page and pin, tweet and every so often Wanelo gets updated with new items from my shop as well as those in treasuries. I think I'm doing fairly well with keeping up with it all but some days the 8-10 hours it takes to do it, makes me glad I don't have to work on a mosaic in addition to promoting unless I want to. Whew. It's exhausting.

My muse is not bugging me to go and do right now which means she knows I need to rest and do what I'm doing for others who have CIJ promotions going on (besides myself).

Today I'd like to share a Creative Trends Team item from ShopPretties Etsy shop. I'm diggin' this shop a lot! This team has an awesome amount of talent behind it. I'm thrilled to be associated with each and every one of them.
