Sangria! YUM!

I ADORE sangria and so does my husband.  We've been sipping sangria for years.  Usually, I just kind of throw some lemonade...wine...brandy...fruit...and assorted other items that I have on hand and let them soak overnight.  SO...for YEARS...that was my method.  Finally, I decided to go ahead and follow a recipe and I have found THE perfect recipe..ready?


PERFECT SANGRIA EVERY TIME!!!


There. You. Go.

Bubble Jewelry!

I found these AMAZING glass bubble beads a year or so ago, and stashed them away, along with so many others that I'll "get to some time."  Yes, my studio is ... interesting.  OK, I'm a bead hoarder.  SO...what do you think?  I am loving these new designs!  You can see more at http://www.etsy.com/shop/KarmaBeads

Etsy Relevancy Search Tool

Last week, Etsy rolled out a new search mechanism (new to them)...entitled "Relevancy."


There's been a lot of buzzing noises in the Etsy forums, lots of complaints, and, frankly, I've been really watching my listing and stats, and have tweaked my listing and my tags to make my shop more "relevant"" but I honestly can't make heads or tails of it.

With that said..I LOVE IT.  No longer will we have to open an Etsy search to find the same sellers dominating the first page EVERY TIME.  The little guys are getting some attention.  In the past, those who could afford to re-list, and re-list could do so and push out the people who couldn't afford to, and relied on their fresh listings to stay front page, albeit for only 10 minutes or so.


I've loved rediscovering some of the other glass sellers who have ORIGINAL ideas, no more decal-topped dichroic crap.  If that's what you like...search for it.  Otherwise, don't shove it down our throats.  


LOVE. 


Well played, Etsy!
