I signed up, eeeep!

looking for some external motivation to keep up with your sketches, collages, what-have-you? I was, sort of, not really, well maybe. Something different than the artistic/crafty rut that I find myself in, perhaps, yes.

sign up, pick a theme, mail it back and go down in tour history. pretty sweet, ehh? I thought so!

what's my theme? thought you'd never ask. drumroll, please: figuring you out.

can't wait. now back to studying, yes.

some recent favorites around the etsy

Awesomeness that i've recently discovered while spelunking around etsy.com

enjoy!

Edit: 7/18/2010

replaced this widget with a screen shot, because I realized that the widget was going to change as I added new favs. d'oh. I wanted to capture favorites of the moment with this post, neat.

Shameless self promotion time

I bet, dear blog, you had no idea that a few months ago I set up a separate etsy.com shop for my anatomy themed goods ---no? Great, here it is:

http://orangemarketorgans.etsy.com

and I am still adding to the ever growing catalogue of all that awesomeness that doesn't quite fall into the other category. This includes all those dinosaur accessories, LEGO brick jewelry madness, and clothing and bags and everything inbetween:

http://autumnomatopoeia.etsy.com

I bet that you also didn't know that I set up a one-stop website for all things autumnomatopoeia, I mean beyond this lovely blog of course:

http://poeia.net

and, well in that spirt of shameless self promotion, here are some newer things in both of those shops.





enjoy! more soon!

Oh, hello there. Sorry I've been a stranger.

I seem to do this a lot, fair blog, leave you in the dust and promise never to do it again. But alas, I will, I know this, you know this. Here's my attempt to make amends.

First, with shameless self promotion, then by featuring something that I think is pretty nifty keen by a fellow crafter/artist/awesome person extraordinaire. Here goes nothing.

Sweet, summery treasury feature!

You might be asking, well how did you find out that you were in this treasury my dear? So glad you asked!

On a tip from Miss Gina Designs I explored craftopolis.com, where you can search all current treasuries for that favorite etsy user of yours. While there I just happened to plug in autumnomatopoeia, and there it was, this lovely wild thing treasury.

What a fantastic follow up from yesterday's post, thanks Miss Gina!
