Etsy week

I am just going to call this the plow into Etsy week because that is just what we did among the other chores of working in and around the studio. You all may think that it is easy to write a blog post but not for me and therefore to write a good Etsy listing can be equally challenging at times. Fact is that I try to write the day before so that it is fresh to post on Friday. Don't ask about this week to much as most of it was spent on Etsy writing. Some Etsy people say just write one post and then duplicate it. Well that can be difficult and not something we care to do with our listings. Each piece that comes out of the studio is unique unto itself and so each listing deserves to be also. 

So we write, read, take more pictures, edit, read more and finally it is ready to post. Then off to market we go where I sell the piece that it just took so long to write about and off of Etsy it comes. Oh well. But in the end it is fine because we are so happy that another of the functional art makes its way into a happy home to put a smile on someone's face.

Now this morning I was thinking about what to write the last minute and was thinking, like facebook, not all of you may use Etsy.com. So today's post is a brief listing of some of the pieces that we have put up this week that you may just want to have in your home. Etsy is real easy to work and we take PayPal through it. So on that branch...

Independence Day

Independence Day, commonly known as the fourth of July for many is the day that we adopted the Declaration of Independence, thereby declaring our independence from Great Britain. It is a reason to celebrate! For some it becomes a long weekend of celebrating especially when the 4^th is on a Monday as it is this year.

With the extra time off there is bound to be fireworks, BBQ’s and picnics abounding. Burgers will be on the grill, green salads in the bowl and delicious pies lining the tables. I hope there are leftovers because Steve’s birthday is the next day.

One of the finest ways to present your guests all of these mouth watering treats is with a wooden utensil from us. Of course you know that it is all in the presentation. We have flippers, spatulas, slotted and unslotted spoons, salad sets and even a pie lifter for all those desserts. You know that you can never have enough desserts.

#226 Cherry Pie Lifter

SOLD

So start your weekend off with some good yummy food served with just the right size utensil hand carved from the artist Steve. That reminds me that I have to go out and weed the garden, pull some lettuce, beans and check on the potatoes. See you on Saturday at the Harrisonburg Farmers Market  from 7-1pm. Enjoy your weekend, celebrate your freedom.
