Look what I got!

Isn't it the coolest? I want a tattoo very similar to this, but don't know where to put it. So I had incredibly talented Etsy seller MorganAnne make me a necklace. It's perfect for a commitment-phobe like me. Check out her shop!

A little bit of spring in February

I deserve pie!

You do deserve pie! What a nice setiment. You should get it put on a shirt. Wait! It's already on a shirt!

You should buy one!

Thanks to Etsian tealtown for making me smile!

Oops I Did it Again!

I made a typo in the treasury title I created today. How embarrassing!

Anyway, I saw the cool ribbon barrettes and it made me wonder what else I could find that was inspired by the 80's. Etsy never fails to disappoint and I found everything from "Jem and the Holograms" necklaces to Care Bears pillowcase dresses. I picked my favorite (and the best photographed) to be featured in this treasury. Go check it out!

How cute is this?

I hope to feature shops/items that I think are swell as often as possible. I came across this adorable sock baby from chickabiddybaby and just had to show it to you all!

Click me to see the cute baby sock doll that Nate and Cate is currently obsessed with.

Show some Etsy love and blog about an item that *you* think is super cool!

Blogger is being difficult at the moment and won't let me add a picture, but trust me, it's freakin' cute. Go check it out. Go. Now. Do it!

"Metrics"

This tutu is 16.7% Orange

When did we start calling statistics "Metrics"? Was it the same time we started "thinking outside the box" or "shifting paradigms"? Was it when we started "pinging" people or "leveraging" our "deliverables".

I started making a good old fashioned paper chart of my some of my sales numbers and Rick asked what I was doing. I replied "Charting metrics". Hmmmm. It seems moving from the corporate world to the world of the handmade cottage industry hasn't been as seamless as I thought.

Oh, Rick wanted me to mention that statistics are not the same as metrics. He has some grand theory about it, but I don't know. Anyone care to comment?
