I found this cool tool....

I stumbled across this new tool you can use to generate code so that you can have an Etsy Treasury added to your blog post. This approach is better than just taking a screen shot because the links will be automatically created for you.
The treasury title links to the Etsy treasury page
The name of the curator links to their Etsy page
The photo and the title of each item links to the Etsy listing page
The name of the seller for each item links to the seller's Etsy shop
Check it out here: Etsy Treasury HTML Code Tool
Here is a sample of a Treasury I have made:

I do LOVE green... I DO, I DO !

I love everything about the treasury. My husband just cut our grass for the first time this year. All the green...no more white, gold or brown! YEAH spring!
Thank-you HallesHouse for all the wonderful green.

A little goody every workbench should have

I have been selling and using these great little disposable brushes for years. Not many people now about them but I think they are GREAT. They are great because you can use them with a yucky product for a quick applications and then just pitch them in the trash. I really like it when I can put a bit of patina were I want it to go instead of all over a piece. They come in 3 sizes and 1 brush size. 1 pack of 10 brushes of: The Ultra Brush, Regular size microbrush, Fine microbrush and Super-Fine microbrush. The originated for the Dental industry and the manufacturer packs them for hobby users too. The benefits of the patented design with a bendable neck that facilitates precise placement in difficult areas Non-absorbent, non-linting fibers suspend solution as small as 1/8 of a drop No dripping or spilling Minimum waste of material applied. Usage: Paints, Adhesives, Powder, Lubricants, Solvents, Patina...so many more. If you want to give them a try you can find them on my ArtFire site Textures.

Man I love these colors!!

I am so inspired by these color choices. I feel I must make something with Teal and that Rusty Apricot. Now I just have to come up wit the design and get enameling.
Thank-you cayennepeppybags for your inspiration! Click on the picture and go to the treasury live and leave a comment.
