I sold a bear, I sold a bear! Right out of my very own etsy shop! I'm so excited. How fun is this?! To be able to craft something I love just for kicks and giggles and do it for free, because somebody just paid for my supplies?! WHA-HOO!!
I took my $9.00 in hand that I received for little bear and hit the only garage sale in town last weekend. These are my treasures ~ a wonderful wooden embroidery stand. Yeah! No more death grip on that old embroidery hoop, I can actually stitch hands free now if I so desire. It will definately help with those hand cramps I get after stitching for an hour or so. I got two great little antique doll clothes patterns that are very fun, one redwork iron-on transfer pattern, about 4 yards of some great blue fabric and one Louis La'Mour book for Riff. Nine dollars well spent, huh?
I received this great Pink and Brown swap package from Kari at ArtsyMama . Look at that fun Valentine Day banner. The vintage card attached to it has an incredibly small envelope that folds out about six inches with a note written on it. Very cool! The heart box is bursting with all kinds of crafting supplies, ribbon, buttons, tickets, and yarn to name a few. Thank you, Kari. Great stuff!
Happy Valentines Day to one and all...

Happy Valentine's Day, Paula. Thanks for sharing all the good thrifting/swapping love. Fun!
Cute bear! Love your blog. Happy Valentines to you. :)
It's the greatest feeling to sell something that you've made... and then getting to splurge on a little something for yourself afterwards! :)
I hope you had a lovely Valentine's day!
Good for you! I feel the same way when someone buys my scarves and scrunchies.
What a nice gift you received. New craft supplies just can't be beat!
Wow big time score on your pink and brown swap, love all your goodies. Everyone's package has been unique in their own way, love seeing all creativity!
Congratulations on your sale!!! Wooohoooo, it must feel so good to be able to say you sold your first item :) Keep up the good work and the crafting!

Congrats on your sale, your little bear is soooo cute. I sure have had the garage sale bug here, but that won't happen for a few more months. Looks like you recieved some really nice items in your swap. I think the swaps are so much fun!!
Congrats on the Esty sale!!!! That is too cool Paula!
I guess this means you're buyin' the wine, eh! I guess you'll have to help Wende and me with Etsy so we can buy wine too!
