Handmade Toys at risk! December 11, 2008
In just 62 days it is going to become illegal to sell handmade toys in the U.S. unless they have been tested. Many of us who are crafters and Etsy-aholics certainly can’t afford this. Is it time to say R.I.P. to all the beautiful crafts we love? I certainly hope not.
Please visit the Handmade Toys Alliance to see what you can do to help all the wonderful stay at home crafters out there.
Don’t forget to sign the petition too.
We need to do everything we can to keep crafters crafting.
Save money! October 5, 2008
Have I mentioned yet I try to be frugal and love finding ways to save money? Here’s a great one, especially right now as you start to shop online for Christmas. Join Big Crumbs and you get cash back on your online purchases from favorite stores like Target, Wal-Mart, Joann, Old Navy, Dell, Home Depot, Kohl’s, One Step Ahead and many many more. Now, if they’d just add Etsy….. 
Some examples of savings:
SAVE up to 7.2% with Joann.com
SAVE up to 9% with Uncommongoods.com
SAVE up to 4.5% with Etoys.com
SAVE up to 9% with HearthSong.com
SAVE up to 7.2% with PetsMart
SAVE up to 9% with Target.com
I’ve also heard a lot of people rave about The Grocery Game. I haven’t joined yet, but it looks promising. Let someone else do the work of matching up manufacturer’s coupons with store specials and you’re the winner with lots of freebies!
And so we begin… October 5, 2008
Welcome to my new blog, This Crafty Mom. I love sewing and all things handmade, so you can imagine how much I love finding treasures on Etsy.com. Check in often to see specials and sales from Teams EtsyKids, EtsyBaby and EtsyMom (I’m a proud member of each!) as well as new crafts I’m working on.
I’d love for you to stop by my store KeikiBoutique as well. I’m just now trying to beef it back up after a cross-country move, so bear with me. 
Happy Crafting!
Stumble It!
