Etsy Treasuries

I've been meaning to make a Treasury on Etsy for some time now. Last night after some additional urging from Rawbean (thanks lady!) I made my first one. Here is a shot, but if you want to see the real thing click here.

Of course I posted my Treasury after I realized I had accidentally lost an item in the bottom right corner. I frantically tried to find it, but Etsy is just too massive. It's gone forever. Awh!

A Treasury is a group of items that anyone can put together. The items should fit well together (like similar colours or subjects). If you visit etsy.com the items on the front page are a Treasury that someone has created. It's kinda like decorating your own store window.

They are super fun to make and the best part is that Etsy might choose what you have put together to be on their front page. Earlier this week one of my bags was chosen to be in this Treasury below, I was really honoured because the Treasury was beautiful. Click here if you want to see the real thing.


See? There's my little bag in the bottom left corner.

Haha you know....you can chose another item to put in that corner. It is allowed, although I like how bad ass you are by leaving the corner empty! Love your choices! So copacetic!

Cool! Does Etsy let you know if somebody has put one of your items in a Treasury? Was this Treasury put on the front page of Etsy?

I'm so impressed with all of the neat things on Etsy. I wish I was that creative. I love your bags too!

Rawbean - Yeah.....that's it - I'm badass!! ha! ha!

Dana - Etsy doesn't let you know, but there are other websites that will track it for you. This one wasn't on the front page.....mine?! As if! I think the mermaid one should make it though.

Christielli - Thanks lady!!
