New Listings and a Little Shamrock

I spent this past weekend listing 4 brand new scarves at The Lavender Lizard. They're all long and cozy and colorful. Here's my very favorite of the bunch (the pink lemonade stripe scarf):

Today I listed a brand-new color set of lip balm holders. The colors are a limited edition, as such I won't be creating very many of these sets.

I also took tons of photos of other new listings that were created with the new yarn I recently purchased. Over the next few days, I hope to edit and post these (as life and time and boys allow.) A sneak peek is definitely called for:

In the midst of all this "new", I made a belt just for me. Love all of the colors so much, plus it coordinates so well with so many colors (turquoise, navy, white, hot pink....)

And I had a little time to create this shamrock embellishment. A friend asked for these so her mother could embellish a quilt. They're so cute that I may just list them at The Lavender Ladybug.

On the Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh Day of Christmas...

Well, I got behind on blogging my 12 Days of Christmas specials for The Lavender Lizard. Too many sick kiddos finally caught up to me.

So I've decided to extend these 3 specials until midnight on Thursday 12/11. Just let me know in the Notes to Seller that you read about these in my blog, and I'll honor any and all of these three specials. Thanks for your understanding!

Day 9 Special: 10% Off Anything Cups!

Day 10 Special: 20% Off All Accessories (including coin/card purses, tissue holders, lip balm holders, scarves, ponchos, and capelets)

Day 11 Special: 10% Off Tape Measure Cozies and Needle Cases!

The final (and awesome!) special will be good on Friday, December 12! Stay tuned!

ETC Gift Swap

We just wrapped up the 3rd Q Gift Swap with Etsy Texas Crafters. Shop owners filled out a short questionnaire and were randomly matched up with another shop.

My partner was Cheri from itsmecheri2098. She's a crafter who makes jewelry and clay creations. She likes the color purple (hey, who doesn't??) So this is what I made:

It's a tape measure cozy in purple, of course, plus an Anything Cup, also done in purple (but with a twist!) Cheri wrote me that she was very happy with her gifts! Yay!

The person who had me was May from mayzbeadz. She creates lampwork beads, and she made a gorgeous (purple!!!) bracelet for me. (Check out the cute heart-and-arrow toggle clasp!) Thanks, May!!!
