Holiday Sale 2017

The Holidays are right around the corner.  You know what that means? 

Time to start shopping!

I love shopping, I love shopping for other people even more.  The look on a loved one's face when they open the perfect gift is just amazing.

Some of the people in our lives are easier to shop for than others, however.

You know what I'm talking about.  Everyone has that one person (or maybe more than one) on their gift list who has everything they want already.  Or there are those who when asked what they want say "Oh don't get me anything, I don't need anything this year."
If you're anything like me you hear that and take it as a challenge.  
I'll show you, you think, I'll get you the most interesting, unique, awesome gift ever!

But what do you get for someone who has everything?

A handmade gift.  Nothing is more unique than something handmade.
If you happen to be someone who is "craft-challenged" no worries!  There are lots of artists out there creating and selling wonderfully unique handmade items, perfect for those hard to shop for people. 

Etsy happens to be a great online market place to find handmade items.

They are also the host for Copperccino, my own online jewelry and accessories shop! 
Head on over there by clicking the picture below and get 10% off of EVERYTHING in my shop until December 15th!  You're sure to find something for that hard-to-please someone.

Making Earring Cards

Image
Today I want to give an inside look at how I put together my new earring cards for orders. I start by gathering everything I need: -Artist Trading Cards (white) -Stamps (thank you circle seal, one of a kind art, letters for my initials) -Acid Free stamping pigment (turquoise) -Multi-hole punch The first thing I do is measure 1 inch below the top of the card and draw a line with a pencil across the paper. Then, I find the middle of the line and mark it. Next, I mark where the holes will be punched, an inch apart.  Half an inch from each side of the middle mark. Punch the earring holes using the smallest setting on the multi-hole punch. Now it's time to stamp on the card.  First I stamp the "Thank you" seal on the front of the card.  I don't take measurements or anything, just eye ball it. Then, I stamp the back of the card with the "...

Christmas Gifts on a Budget

Image
I love shopping for gifts. It's probably my favorite part of the Holidays.  Finding that perfect gift for a special someone in your life and seeing the look on their face when they open it.  It's the best. Some years money is tight, however.  This was one of those years for us.  It's unfortunate, but not a problem.  I also happen to love making things.  I needed to make Christmas gifts for my family on a very, very tight budget, and a very limited time frame. Challenge accepted. Lotion A couple months ago, I had decided to try my hand at making lotion.  It was a success and I am now selling the finished product, "Chill Out body lotion", which can be purchased from my  Etsy store . I had some left over lotion in a slightly different scent from when I was experimenting before settling on the scent for "Chill Out".  I put it in some small canning jars I had in storage, printed out a new label and slapped it on...
