Happy New Year!

I wanted to jump on and wish all of you a very Happy New Year (two days late).

2011 is a very welcomed and much needed year for me--I was very happy to see 2010 go away.

However, a new year also means new opportunites, new challenges and hopefully some more new friends!

So I wish you all the best and hope that 2011 is a good one!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now before I go, I wanted to let you know that I created a new treasury on Etsy for those who may (or may not) have January birthdays:  http://www.etsy.com/treasury/4d1e369b95428eef2631f3b8/garnets-januarys-birthstone?index=0

I am a November baby myself, but garnets have always been a favorite to not only wear but to create with.  So I figured what a better way to showcase them in this, their month to shine!

I hope you enjoy it and...

....until next time! :)

I've been featured!

I received a great email today stating that one of my necklaces has been featured on the site EtsyStalker.com!  So excited!!!

Please check out the site and the article and be on the lookout for my Penguins Would Be Proud necklace: http://etsystalker.com/?p=15232

Also while I have you here, my 20% off EVERYTHING sale is still going on!

Just use promo code: SAVE20 at checkout and the discount will be automatically deducted.

And as always, FREE US Shipping and a Free Gift Pouch with every purchase!

Until next time...

Just wanted to say...

Merry Christmas!

A New Treasury, A New Sale & Rings to Buy!

Hello all!  I thought i'd spread a little holiday cheer this evening and let you know about three things...

1) I've got a new treasury up!

It's called "Christmas Cookies Without Calories".

These are great cookie-like creations that you can wear and won't have to feel guilty about it.

Click HERE to see these yummy pieces.

Number 2) I'm running another SALE!!!

When you use the promo code SALE20 at checkout, you will get 20% off your order of my handcrafted jewelry.  I hope you'll take advantage of this sale...still time to get your stocking stuffers after all.

All of my jewelry comes in a FREE gift pouch and I always offer FREE US Shipping.

So why not get your gifts now while they are on sale?

(I won't tell.)

And now, number 3)  I've recently listed some of my personal jewelry (not my handcrafted stuff, this is from my own collection) up on eBay.  To be frank (or judy or bill), I need the money.  So if you are looking for sterling silver rings as a gift, please take a look at the pieces I have up: http://shop.ebay.com/thegoblet/m.html

Just a note about the eBay auction items--my FREE US Shipping policy still applies, but the 20% discount does not.  the sale code is only valid in my Etsy shop.  However, if you buy from both, I will be more than happy to ship it all together in the same package.

Thanks for visiting and I hope everyone is taking some time here and there to have a cup of cocoa, watch a little Rudolph or Charlie Brown and taking a few moments to take in some of the lights of the season.

Sometimes it's the little things that can make you smile. :)

Until next time....

Have a Happy Turkey Day All! :)

Until next time...

Shopping with Humor

It's Thanksgiving week and that means everyone is thinking, well, not of the yummy turkey, but rather the shopping that will commence the day after!

In a way, that's sad. Poor turkey. So neglected.

However, it IS shopping season and that's where I come in!

Handcrafted jewelry makes great gifts. And mine starts at just $13 (and Free US Shipping ALWAYS!)

Don't just think of friends and family. Think of your hairdresser, nanny, kid's teacher(s), postal woman, neighbor you've borrowed a cup of sugar from, your local coffee house barista who knows to get you your coffee before you go through caffeine withdrawal, your friendly bartender who listens to all your drama, your pharmacist who keeps you in valium, the dog groomer who shaves your poodle into funny shapes, as a bribe for your son's girlfriend to stay away from him,
or maybe you say the hell with all of them and just buy some goodies for yourself!

Whomever you buy for, I just hope you buy from me...I'm not gonna lie. There are some amazing crafters out there, many who follow my blog (hello!) however, I'd really like it if you bought a little something from yours-truly.

http://thegoblet.com

I hope this made you giggle a little bit today. I hope your turkeys are thawed out by Thanksgiving (mine wasn't last year, had spaghetti for dinner) and that you all remember the most important rule of the Thanksgiving...

CALORIES DON'T COUNT ON THE HOLIDAYS SO GO CRAZY!

That is all.

Happy Turkey Day Everyone--Much Love and Many Hugs!!!

Until next time...

10% Going to Breast Cancer Foundation

Hey all, wanted to give you a heads-up about what I'm doing in my shop right now...

From now until the end of October, I will be donating 10% of ALL SALES to the Susan G Komen For the Cure Foundtion.

While October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I'm also doing this to honor some special women in my life who have been affected by this horrendous disease.

Please come see my handcrafted jewelry: http://thegoblet.etsy.com

Remember, the gift giving season is coming up fast and as always, I offer Free US Shipping!

So come and shop with me while also doing a good thing for a great cause!!!

Until next time...

Lots of smiles at the crafts fair....

Hey all, I just wanted to let you know that the crafts show yesterday went VERY well! I met the nicest people and sold a whole lot of earrings.

My first customer of the day really set the tone..."I'm so happy you're here again. I bought earrings from you last year and wear them all the time. Was hoping you'd be here so I could get more." What a wonderful way to begin the day. :)

The day ended just as great. A woman who had come by earlier showed up out of breath just as I was getting ready to pack up and go home. Turns out, she (literally) ran home to get her checkbook so she could catch me before I left for the day. She purchased a pair of earrings that I hadn't even seen her look at when she was there before--I was in such shock that she did this and I left the fair smiling ear to ear.

Everyone was so great yesterday. We ended up situated next to the same group we had last year...all of whom are just fantastic people. So glad I did this fair and can't wait until the next one!

Now while I have you here, wanted to let you all know that I've listed a bunch of new pieces tonight. Lots of great Fall items, a few pieces for the holidays and a few that would make great gifts this upcoming season.

As always, FREE US Shipping. :)

I hope you'll stop by the 'shop' and see what's new! http://thegoblet.etsy.com/
