Hi all,
Just a quick update! Thanks to Jeannie Mossa, of Planet Calamari (http://www.etsy.com/shop/PlanetCalamari) I have found a way to make all treasuries clickable. Now, Melissa Hager's wonderful treasury of her items is clickable, as well as previously posted "Sunrise, Sunset" and "Featherlight Ethereal Collection." Thank you, Jeannie.
Melissa reports more traffic to her sight and hopes of new sales. Hope you will all say "hi" to her via this blog or her site!
Who would like to be our next featured artisan? The first who emails me is it!

And now for our First Feature Etsy Artisan.... (drumroll, please!)
MELISSA HAGER and her Etsy store, "Two of a Kind--Hand Knits and Crochets"
Melissa and her son, Drew!
"I started Two of A Kind over this past year from my home in NE Ohio. I'm primarily focusing on my knitted and crocheted items right now but I also enjoy working on illustrations and acrylic paintings. I'm very inspired by the cold winters in Ohio and by my son, that's actually how I came up with the name Two of A Kind. I saw two sparrows sitting on a branch one day while trying to come up with my name and it just reminded me of my son working right by me the whole time even though he's only 7 yrs old, the name stuck! Creating pieces to help out others in need is also a great inspiration for me. Programs to help the elderly and homeless in the winter and I'm also about to donate a piece to a fundraiser/auction it's all such a motivation. My sister and I were really lucky growing up, I remember watching my grandma crochet little dresses for our dolls. And I remember thinking how in the world did she do that?! I was in awe and I was truly inspired from a young age to create and to see where my mind could take me. I hand knit and crochet scarves, arm warmers, hats, pillows and stuffed toys."
So, what kinds of goodies can one find in Melissa's Etsy store???

Sunrise, Sunset, and all things Warm and Lovely!
'Sunrise, Sunset, and all things warm and lovely...' by RoaringLionStudios

It's Thursday night, and thought I'd run another treasury by you, so when you wake up you can be welcomed by a "Sunrise, Sunset" treasury I recently put together. Jo's item, "Orange Zebra Jasper and Carnelian Copper Necklace" (from her UniqueBeadedGems Etsy store) was featured in this treasury long before she joined this blog and before I knew her. Neat, ha?! Way to go, Jo! I hope to create a lot more treasuries in the future, featuring Roaring Lion Studios Blog followers, and other Etsyians. All of the items are clickable, and each image will take you to the Etsy store which carries this item--if it is still available!
Hope you enjoy this and Happy Friday! Pam : )

Hi fellow artisans!
I've put together this treasury because I was inspired by the feeling of a soft breeze, the smell of freshly washed white sheets hanging in the sun, and the purity of white, and thus call it "Featherlight Ethereal Collection." All of the pictures are clickable and lead to the seller's store and item, IF it is still available! Your comments are welcome!
