Tea time

I was really pleased to see that my "Afternoon Tea" Treasury made it to the Front Page yesterday!

This list was inspired by the fact that I am organizing a "Tea and Jewelry Party" at my house this weekend to introduce my new pieces to some lovely ladies who live in Vancouver and are members of the unofficial Olala design fan club : )

Who's next???

Some of my creations have been featured in some beautiful Treasuries this week and they made the Front Page of Etsy today!!! Yes, three times, Olala design was on the Front Page today!!! .... Hundreds of viewers visited my "shop" but, well, I cannot really say that my sales exploded... no....

But on the other hand, I have noticed that I now have 999 Etsians who "heart" my shop! Isn't it cute????

I really wonder who is going to be number 1000 : )

A Front Page day!

Today, Olala design was on Etsy's Front Page twice!

First, it was my newest Treasury "Sweet Nothing" that made the FP and later, it was Rafya's "B.B.O" (blue brown and olive) that featured my "Ronde d'ebene" bracelet... Rafya is a jeweller from Israel and she is one of my favorite sellers : )

I knew it!

I knew it! I told you Betsy3's Treasury was worth being on the Front Page and sure enough, "Primavera" was proudly showing its lovely colors this afternoon on Etsy's Front Page! Thank you Betsy and Etsy : )

Now, here is my latest list : it's called "Naturally" and I'm pretty happy with it...

Here's also a sneak peak of a necklace I'll be listing this weekend. I've named it "Ma douce" because it has very soft colors. This gorgeous button comes from France, it was part of another "treasury" : one that I received through the mail and that had been curated by my aunt who lives in Paris... She had gone shopping for me in a few of these wonderful craft shops where I would spend all my savings - if I had any!

I really enjoy making lists for the Treasury on Etsy : every Etsy user can become a "curator" by choosing 12 items featured in her "favorites" and arrange them according to colors or themes. Then, the big game is to look at each other's lists and comment : "oh, this is so lovely!", "what a stunner!", "I really love this color palette!", etc... and avidly scroll down the Treasury to see if your own items are featured somewhere... Ultimately, your talents as a curator might be recognized by the Etsy administration who will put your list on the Front Page of the web site for up to an hour! This is very rewarding for the "curator" and a fantastic promotional tool for the sellers.

Anyway, I just wanted to show you a list created by Betsy3, a seller from Italy, who featured my "Blossoms" earrings in her latest Treasury. I really like this list and I hope it will make the Front Page : )
