No, I haven’t been living under a rock.  On a rock, actually, in the middle of the sea.  ;) chillin’ at the dock of the bay … Seriously, I’ve heard of Etsy, but shamefully had never really poked around. Then I start a blog, and start to have blog friends, and these blog friends open Etsy shops and I think ‘prolly ’bout time I checked that etsy thing out’. And I kinda can’t stop looking around at all of the handmade craftiness. I have to admit that I love that my dear friends Kelly and Linda first made their soon-to-be-sold-in-their-Etsy-shop-homemade-wares as their Pass It On projects.  Pretty cool I say. And, as an aside, if anyone else I know is thinking of opening a shop of their own homemade goodness, I am happy to be a product guinea pig.  ;) First, Kelly from Eclectically Vintage made these totally awesome engraved vintage spoons, that are now available for sale. How awesome would these be in my Caribbean garden.  Chuckle.  ;)

Hey hey!  Happy Monday. Most of you in the states are probably off today, right?  Hard to believe how easy it is to get out of touch with holiday schedules.  I don’t even know if today is a holiday here in Curacao. Oblivious much.  :/ Anyway, it seems like a good day to review all that was the month of March, with some new stuff mixed in for fun.  For me, it was one of those months where I feel like I didn’t actually finish much.  I worked on a lot, was a bit all over the board…but let’s see what was actually done, shall we?

Well, at least it feels like it around here lately!  So grab your adult beverage of choice and settle in for more project inspiration.  Because tonight we’re celebrating Ginger’s 1st Blogoversary with a par-tay. Have you met Ginger?  If not, and you like easy and creative craft ideas, you’re missing out.  And today would be the perfect day to head over to Ginger Snap Crafts (appropriately named I’d say) and say Congratulations!  And while you’re there check out a few of my favorite projects of Ginger’s. Like her recent herb pot upgrade.

Hey y’all! First off, a big phat Thank you! to everyone who has supported the first MISSION: Possible party, It’s a Cinch.  If you missed it, there are 286 easy peasy, super simple projects linked up to give you some fun, simple project ideas.  What a great resource for a little spring craftiness.  :) I had so much fun visiting each and every one, today I’m going to share some that I can totally see myself trying at some point if I ever get around to it. I just did an easy little project using empty glass jars that I’ll be posting about tomorrow…but look at how Kristi at Addicted 2 Decorating used them to make this awesome hallway artwork.

Hey y’all!! I’m back!  Vacation was fantastic!  Loved it so much! Fun times with a great family, adorable nephew, funny brother, sister-in-law who thought the strike through was showing my blog mistakes.  (Sure do love you Bonnie!!) And too many “just blog about it” jokes to go around.  My sweet, sweet mother didn’t even come to my defense…apparently I have a bit of a blog audition going on here, too. Sure do love you family.  :) And … after vacation … it’s always fun to be at the gate in the airport going to Curacao  … when I’m heading home.  Smile. So, there’s really no complaining here. But have you ever had those days when you thought you would be getting all crafty.
