Spring Sales on Etsy, Check 'Em Out!

We just found out our second child is a GIRL! We are very excited! Both my family and my husbands are over run with boys. So, to celebrate, I'm having a BOGO (Buy One, Get One) Half Off Sale at Diana's Darnings. Buy one item of any price and get the second for half off. Have a baby shower coming up, or even in the near future, it's a great time to stock up!




I also found a couple other Etsy shops that are having sales this weekend. Stop on by, I'm sure you'll find something you need!


2 Dollar Scrapbooking is having a Grand Opening sale! She says everything in her shop must go. It really must because you won't find deals like this for scrapbooking and card making anywhere else.

The Charm School Drop Out has a shop full of prints and if you shop today and tomorrow, they are all only $10.00!! You'll find prints for every occasion and style.

Elegant by Design is moving and having it's first annual inventory reduction sale. In this shop you'll find jewelry in every price range and for every personality.

Catirina Bonet Designs is a shop full of patterns and right now is offering 5 for $10.00. You'll find crochet, knitting and sewing patterns to make all kinds of great things for babies on up to Grandma. Check out her blog and shop for more details. http://catirinabonetdesigns.blogspot.com/

Styren Designs is a husband and wife run shop where you'll find wooden, acrylic or polymer clay pens. They also have wooden bottle stoppers that would go great with a bottle of wine for a gift. Mothers Day is just around the corner, enjoy 10% off any items in this shop.

As you can see, there are tons of talented people selling tons of great items at great prices on Etsy. Take advantage of these sales and get quality handmade items while you're at it.

Art on Etsy...Find it At Eminent Art Studio

What do you think of when you hear handmade or homemade?

I don't think a lot of people think fine art. Well, Etsy is full of artisans showing off their paintings, drawings, prints and more. At Eminent Art Studio you'll find watercolors, oil and acrylic paintings, prints and drawings.

The owner of this shop, Emina, is a lover of Tiramisu gelatto and is originally from Europe. She now lives in Michigan and is applying to graduate school. She likes to experiment with different media and someday (when she gets time off of studying) would love to try her hand at sculpture and jewelry.

This is Eminent Art's Azure Acrylic Painting. What a breath of fresh air! Doesn't it make you wish you were on a beach somewhere? She was inspired after reading "Death in Venice" by Thomas Mann. Emina says, "Usually I'm inspired by memories and everyday life. Fashion and different cultures are also very inspiring to me."

So, next time you're on Etsy, remember that 'handmade' includes much more than just home decor crafts and such. Check out the fine art and you may find someone like Emina, who has a talent for expressing on canvas what we all feel.

I should also mention that she's recently introduced some prints of her paintings at very affordable prices. You'll find something for every budget at the Eminent Art Studio.
