Etsy Treasury

The other day I received a notification on Etsy that one of my cuffs had been added to a "treasury" list made by Get Crafty on Etsy. Although I was honored that any of my items have been added to any list, I didn't exactly know what this meant. Etsy has a lot going on and I admit that I am only beginning to really understand all that this online market place has to offer. I quickly realized that "treasuries" were galleries comprised by fellow Etsians based on a theme. This immediately became my preferred method of searching for random delight-fulness on Etsy. Whenever I am on Etsy I stumble upon something fantastic that I wasn't even remotely looking for, so searching the treasury list is an even more effective way to randomly discover something fantastic and unique.

So I decided to take a crack at my own treasury list today. I am glad that they only give you 16 slots, otherwise I would have been adding items all day!! I chose to make 2 treasuries; One called, Sweet Baby Girl- Pretty in anything but pink and Little Man. I chose these 2 themes in honor of all of the new babies that have come into the world recently, and for some that I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of. I had so much fun making these treasuries and while searching I came up with many more ideas for future treasury lists.

I loved some of the items so much that I wanted to share them here on my blog. For the complete list visit my treasury.

Treasury # 1 Sweet Baby Girl- Pretty in anything but pink
I'm not saying there is anything wrong with pink, but I wanted to make a list that excluded the normal "girly" shades of pinks, purples and reds for those ladies that know you can feel just as pretty in a neutral color palette. So I chose shades of green, brown and ivory. I loved some of the items so much that I wanted to share them here on my blog.

Treasury # 2 Little Man
My sister is having her second baby (a boy) in less than a month!! In order to contain my excitement and not drive my sister crazy, I decided to peruse some items for the "little man". I absolutely love the hats they are making for little boys now!
