Eyes on the Prize!

Hey all!  Sorry again that I have been away, but I feel like I am always apologizing for that!  I'm not great at daily, or sometimes even weekly updates, but I figure you guys have plenty of other blogs to keep you busy as well, so hopefully I can post some nice treats for you every once and a while!

Anyways, as I said, I have been working very hard on listing more items and buying a little less.  I have been doing well, but I had two exams in the past week so I had to study more than anything else!  Finally, last night I got a chance to take some pictures and list some items on Etsy, take a look!


The canister set above is WAY cool.  I picked it up from the estate sale shop and I knew it would be perfect for my Etsy store!  Each canister pulls out and tips forward so you can open its lid at the top while it is still in the box!  Cool, right?!?! 

Just a cute little stoneware mug I picked up recently and haven't photographed until now! 

Isn't this a great swan planter/vase?  I think it is very elegant, and cute with the little black swan! 

This is actually something I did buy recently, a giraffe ring holder!  I think it is really beautiful, even the plate it is on has LOTS of detailing! 

This is a tin made in Western Germany, aren't the people on it just too cute?  The red part of the box is velvet!  Perfect for Valentines day! 

This is a necklace that I just photographed.  The settings for the crystals in the pendant got a little discolored, making the crystals appear green, but I think it is still very beautiful!

Also, my good friend has started her own Etsy shop and is creating some really wonderful jewelry holders that work great if you have a collection of dangly earrings!  Take a look at the one below that is currently for sale in her shop, Quixitole!  She has some similar items as well, be sure to pay her a visit!

    Thanks for sharing all your goodies. Love the canister set; it made me think of one I had many years ago. The tin box is really sweet and the necklace too. I think any discoloration in a vintage piece just adds to its charm.
