learning new esty ways everyday

Etsy.com is a wonderful site. Full of almost anything you could want handmade, and lovingly created by wonderful people. Artisans from every walk of life and the world actually.

I’ve always wondered how people got such hugh hits on one item and then I fugured it out. Just keep relisting. You don’t have to wait until the listing period is over. Just go to your relist items down the left side of your listing page. I like to go edit first and check on new tags I might want to add or maybe lower my price abit, (since we’re all in the same boat and inexpensive means affordable for others). so when you relist often, you are spending another .20¢ per relist (so it CAN add up). But it puts you back out on the front page and anywhere people are watching you. so good luck with your relists and I hope you sell soon.

Here’s my lastest upload for sale over @ my etsy site:

first vegatable garden in years

I love gardening, and back when I lived in one place that I could actually call home, without wondering when I’ll have or need to leave, I had a beautiful garden. Mostly flowers and in the last few years before we moved I had started to attempt veggies. So this is an awesome feeling getting to take photos of our new veggie garden.

May 28th garden start

garden w flag

our peas went in a couple of weeks ago and then I got so busy that I haven’t had time or the weather has just been to rainy to get out in. so today I planted spinach, cucs, radishs, lettuce, beans and a couple of potted plants I bought. one is a white lavender (never grew that before) and a beautiful purple/blue slavia.

some bird/buddies we are missing

The last few years that we have been building our casita up in Lama we have become very good friends with our bird buddies. This season we haven’t been feeding them in the feeders because we don’t want them to depend on us for food when the snows get deep cause we won’t be here. But I found these photos that I wanted to share

len can whistle the birdies right to his hands

beebs just watches len like he really truly understands everything he says

we call this one beebs (for brown-butt)

one of our many chickadees

last winter we had them flocking around us by the droves and this little bitty girl (we’re guessing) would be so comfortable in len’s hand that she literally had her back to him while he petted her and she ate the seed in his hand.

this one we call butch

these little guys are ‘titmouse’. what a name. They are all grey and they make a fluttery sound when they fly. they like to hang in groups.

one on my hand

chickadees are one of my very favorite birds. I have some great stories about them and just love their little personalities and charm. The way they flit around and always soo busy. Their little bounce in flight. And if you’ve never had one land on you, you are missing out on one of this earths greatest experiences ( in my opinion anyway). they have the lightest little whisper of landing and if you’re lucky you can even feel the little claws on their feet. It is such a blessing each and every time they trust you with their presence. In the winter when it’s really cold you can feel the heat out of their feet and you know they hang out just a smidgen longer cause they can feel your warmth too. What a gift of abundance and peace.
