Wow is it Friday already! This week was a whirlwind it seems-and many of my plans for beginning the staircase project have been pushed back a bit! I have decided that the negotiable wall color is no-longer in limbo and have settled on a custom grey that is medium in tone and warm. The stairs and trim are a definite BM Atrium White and I'm scrapping the birds and branches in favor of a less busy look with a graphic trim as the runner (not sure about the graphic print yet though.)
Well, what have I been doing? Getting my ETSY shop stocked that's what! I actually signed up in December and have been hem-hawing and plotting since then. The fire started this week to just do it-take the plunge-get it up and running! The reason for the fire is that I donated one of my pieces to help the New Zealand earthquake victims-and needed a link to my item for people to bid on-so I had to put something in my shop! So now I have one thing in there and lots of things in the works! It was the inspiration I needed to get some stuff done so check out some stuff on my ETSY this week!
If you are interested in helping the New Zealanders-there is a link to the auction on the right of my page-just click and you're there! Lots of really cute things to bid on from stores and crafters-lots of kid stuff (Lil Magoolie is the hosting blog-she's located in Christchurch, NZ-the epicenter of the quake) Her blog is super cute and quite popular and earned a top ten spot for fave kid design blogs in "The Homies" contest on Apartment Therapy and you might have seen it on my blog too a few weeks ago--
