This has been an interesting year in many aspects. I have come to the conclusion that I am stuck in some bad habits and I need to get unstuck from them and get my feet firmly planted in some new and good things. I have struggled with creating for my shop this year, so as of now it is empty and will sit in limbo for a time. I have decided to participate in Creative Every Day Challenge and see if I can refresh my creativity. I will try to do regular posts showing what happens. My daughter bought Dee Brestin's book Idol Lies . Dee has put a free study guide and lesson videos on her site HERE. How generous is that? I was so sure that I don't struggle with idol worship in my life, but HA! after watching the first video... I do believe I have fooled myself. I am going to join Jessica and see what idols I have that need to be slain. The other bad habits I have acquired lie mainly in the physical part of my being. Ummm, pretty much the usual New Year's Resolutions of 1. lose weight and 2. exercise. So although I will probably not say much here about this last part, I feel maybe I may stick to it a bit stronger if I put it in writing. I want to lose around 25 pounds and get back into the walking that I have so easily ignored for months.
Are you planning on making changes this brand new year of 2013? If so, what are they?

Celebration Giveaway Party Pt. 1
My Etsy shop's fifth anniversary was in May and it went by without much thought. I realized that My Blog is also 5...this month, I think. My birthday is coming up in a few weeks and so I am combining them all together for a Celebration Giveaway. This is the first one of five. I don't have a schedule for the giveaways except the last one will be given away on October 12th...well because that is my birthday. :) This first gift is this sweet little Sunflower Pendant on a crinkle ribbon, perfect for a bit of autumn to wear.
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post and tell me what your favorite thing about autumn is...or things if you are like me and can never choose just one. I will choose the winning comment on Tuesday, September 18th.

CAST TEAM Treasury Event #8
The Etsy CAST Team has a weekly Treasure event where two shops are picked to be featured in treasuries. It is a great tool for promotion especially for the chosen two.I have been greatly blessed and honored to be chosen this week along with Karen of Ellie Marie Designs. I love this team activity because it gives me a little push to create a treasury and look though shops, both fun stuff! This is the treasury that I created featuring Ellie Marie Designs and the colors Blue and Green.
