Introducing Creativity is Messy

Tera, the woman behind CreativityisMessy, makes so many wonderful treasuries, you will be glad to add her to your circle on Etsy and watch her favorites and treasuries. She has a great eye and is always delighting me with her fabulous finds. Here are some goodies from her shop:

Notice how Tera is on top of Etsy trends in her shop offerings too. I have had the pleasure of spending a little time with Tera in person. She is just as gracious, beautiful and smart as can be. What a treasure.

Where is the love?

Just when I was thinking - come on etsy, I have great new items, my stuff is so Valentine perfect, when are you going to show me the love? My friend Tera comes through with a terrific treasury that makes the front page.

Thank you Tera! Her shop, creativityismessy, shows what a creative powerhouse she is. I have purchased several jewelry and hair accessories from her, and I am really impressed with the quality - plus it was fun to go to her house to pick them out - we are practically neighbors. Her daughter makes wonderful soap as well. The soap shop is germaphobe.
I also want to put in a word for Julian over at craftcult. I think a lot of people take for granted the tools available to us there, but there are people behind that website. Very responsive and constructive people. I contacted Julian a few months ago, sometime after Etsy had put out their API and changed their platform away from flash. I was disappointed that the way Craftcult showed treasuries on blogs - like that one above - had shrunk. Julian worked with me and we went back and forth a few times to find the ideal size for sharing a treasury on blogspot. Since then, Craftcult has launched new tools for us as well. For Etsy sellers, Craftcult is a sweet site.
