New Items

I have listed a couple of new items.

Now I Know My ABC's burp cloth

This pretty burp cloth is made with a cute pastel ABC's fabric on one side, and a pink terry cloth on the other

Polyester batting lines the inside of this burp cloth for extra absorbency and comfort.

Top stitched with a matching pink thread for added attraction.

Machine wash and dry on low.

Burp cloth is approx. 21"x 8"

Great gift for a baby girl!

Dancing Frog portable changing station

This is a changing station for busy moms on the go. Will fit up to 6 diapers and a wipes container. Rolls up into a discreet package that will easily fit into your diaper bag.

Front side of this changing pad is a pastel pink print with adorable frogs and lily pads. The inside has a funky pink dot design.

The center of the pad is lined with a soft batting so your child has a soft place to lay no matter where you change him/her! No more changing your baby directly on those changing booths that are full of germs!

I have one of these for my daughter and it is the best thing ever! I recommend that every mom should get one!

Featured Seller # 1





Featured Seller:
Art Nouveau

What made you want to start crafting?
I've enjoyed doing craft stuff since I was really little. I started out with drawing and art classes, then added on painting, crotcheting, and now jewelry.

What do you sell?
I sell all sorts of different jewelry. I especially like to work with glass beads but I have mixed in some clay and plastic beads as well. I use commercially made beads, beads handmade by other artists, and beads handmade by myself.

What makes you different from other sellers?
I think every seller, unless they strictly copy something, has their own unique design. I try to make a little something in my shop to appeal to each shopper's style of art.

What advice to you have for other crafters?
Work hard at whatever you do....and enjoy it too!

Do you have an items in your store that you love? Tell us about it.
I love everything in my store! My particular favorites are the Shimmery Blue Leaf Necklace and the Shimmery Green Leaf Necklace. I love how the leaves look so delicate and sparkle. I also think it's great how these necklaces go so well in both the spring and the summer.

Tell us about your newest item for sale?
My newest item for sale is a red, black, and clear color combination jewelry set. The set includes a necklace, bracelet and earrings. The necklace has a silver initial pendant that can be customized for the buyer.

Where do you see yourself going with your craft in the future?
I dream of someday opening a jewelry store...or at least having my jewelry sold in other jewelry stores.

Where can we buy your products?
My products can be found at my website http://www.artnouveau.etsy.com
