Rose Works Jewelry's Treasury Blog

Queen of Hearts

2011-02-06T14:19:00.000-08:00

I got a flood of treasuries and collections yesterday! Today I'll just share the Etsy treasuries so it's not overwhelming. :) The first one is the one I named this post after and the one I am the most excited about sharing! I finished and posted my heart necklace for the Queen of Hearts yesterday and just had to make a treasury to show it off :P

I know I'm rather sporadic on this blog - sorry guys! Hopefully I'll be doing this blog at least twice a week. :) We'll see how life goes and where it leads me! For now - here's the collection I created today and one I found myself in :)

Bringing Back the Treasury Blog!

2010-12-09T15:01:00.000-08:00

I've missed this blog! So....I'm bringing it back! It's been a long 6 months, but I'm back in the game and I'm excited about the many different things I have planned! I'll be doing treasuries on Etsy, and collections on Artfire, and sharing them both here! Today's treasury is dedicated to the Etsy Bead Weavers and our monthly competition! This is only the first of my treasuries because there are way to many entries to just do one treasury!

Treasury Loving - Day 2

2010-06-22T11:19:00.000-07:00

I've been out of the blogging world for a bit due to migraines - but I'm back for today at least! I haven't made any treasuries myself today, but I found myself in two of them, and I found another one that I just really love! I'm kinda catching up on life and getting back into a routine right now, hopefully I'll be able to take the time to make some of my own treasuries again soon.

Treasury Loving - Day 1

2010-06-11T08:45:00.000-07:00

Since Etsy opened the new Treasury East I've been really excited! It makes it easy for anyone who wants to create a treasury. Which is the main reason I had created this blog, I wanted to share more awesome items than I could by simply snagging treasury main's. Since we now have the T-East I'm going to change up the purpose of this blog a little. I'll still end up posting pictures now and again, but for the most part I'm just going to post links to my treasuries and others that I find. It's too much work other wise :P Sorry! So here's the first set of links, two of my recent one's and a great one that a friend made :)

BNR's and More!

2010-05-29T10:21:00.001-07:00

I have three great treasuries to show you today!

1 that I made and 2 that I'm featured in :)

I have another round of my on-going BNR up right now.

It's a great way to get your shop featured - and a lot of fun!

We usually have 2-4 sales per round.

Whimsy featured me in her BNR treasury!

And lastly, KRDesigns11 featured me in her

Fantasy World Treasury!

So Much to Share!

2010-05-17T07:40:00.001-07:00

You know, I was really committed to renewing my focus, promoting, blogging, listing, and everything right? So I was planning on blogging on here today with the one treasury I made, and then I found out I was in two treasuries! I feel so special! Thanks guys!

First to Show off is my ongoing BNR!

Trinity DJ featured my Spring Fling Necklace

in her "Elegance Abounds" treasury!

Smadar featured my Paper Beads

in her A Touch of Red treasury.

Hearts and Romance

2010-05-05T18:42:00.001-07:00

Kreativ Blogger

2010-05-05T07:51:00.000-07:00

Today I was awarded a blog award - the Kreative Blogger!

Now I'm supposed to share 7 things about myself:

1. I've recently started drinking lots of green tea.

2. I tend to take on more projects than I can handle.

3. I'm currently watching Fringe as I write this and catch up on e-mail.

4. I'm addicted to beads (wait! you already knew that one...)

5. I have a hard time thinking up things you guys probably don't know.

6. My water bottle is blue.

7. I haven't seen Avatar yet, but it's one of three movies I really want to see.

Krafty Max is the one who nominated me for this award.

Check out her awesome mermaid!

Now I'm supposed to nominate 7 of you - but I suck - so I'm not going too :P

If you think you deserve this award - put it on your blog!

Ring Around the Rosey

2010-05-04T10:19:00.000-07:00

Sorry - I know it's been a LONG time since I've posted on this blog! Life got busy/crazy/fun for awhile :) Have you seen the new Treasury East on Etsy? You can find it here. I love knowing that it doesn't expire! For now I'll be doing my treasuries for this blog through there :) Today's is "Ring Around the Rosey."

BNR Spotlight on Tilt Creations!

2010-04-10T08:46:00.000-07:00

Ok - I've featured both of the elf sisters (mods) for our BNR thread - now it's time to start featuring our participants! Theresa has been a good friend of mine for about as long as I've been on Etsy - and I love her bags! I have one of her clutches for my crocheting supplies. Check out her stuff - buy one of her great items - and become part of our BNR!

BNR Spotlight on Elfling Creations!

2010-04-08T11:27:00.000-07:00

Our BNR thread is still running - and we've had two sales so far! I'm hoping we'll see a lot more in the coming days and I have several ideas for promoting it :) Now to find the time...

Today's spotlight is on my Elfsister and co-moderator for our forum thread - Meri!

BNR Spotlight on Rose Works Jewelry

2010-04-06T12:17:00.000-07:00

My good friend Meri and I have started a Buy and Replace (BNR) thread in the Etsy forums! I'm really excited about this opportunity for free promotion - both for us and anyone who wants to participate! I'm going to try to feature one shop from the BNR thread on this blog a day - just to help give you shopping ideas! And because I'm starting the thread...I started with me :P

Rain - Brought to you by the Etsy Beadweavers

2010-04-05T14:11:00.000-07:00

Today's theme is inspired by....the rain outside my window! It's been raining for a couple of days here and I'm getting quite sick of it! I know, I know, I know, I live in the great north west. This is part of the deal. I'd still rather have sunshine :P Check out these great finds from my Etsy Bead Weavers team! (search ebw team)

You Could Be Here!

2010-04-03T08:48:00.000-07:00

I finally got another round of my ongoing BNR up! You could be in it too? How? Well simple...go shop from any of these 12 shops, let me know who you bought from, and you get to take their place until YOU get a sale! Woohoo! Check it out now!

Featuring Dizzy Dragonflies!

2010-03-31T12:31:00.000-07:00

Dizzy Dragonflies is this month's featured Etsy Blogger - and I'm almost too late to feature her! Oops. Which is a real shame - I love her yarn! It's so gorgeous looking! Some time I'm going to have to splurge and by some to play with :) Check it out for yourself:

Painting with Beads

2010-03-29T19:02:00.000-07:00

Ever since I first discovered bead weaving I've been impressed with the versatility possible. One thing that particularly stuns me are the artists who manage to use their beads like paint. One of my team mates is one of those artists, and her latest piece has my jaw dropping! So of course I had to share it with you. Enjoy!

A Fairy Tale Tribute

2010-03-16T14:48:00.001-07:00

I always love participating in the monthly challenges that the Etsy Bead Weavers do. Sometimes I'm just watching and enjoying, other times I'm actually entering pieces, but I'm always blown away. I thought I'd start doing a monthly post with the top three winners - because they all deserve the recognition!

1st place by bead4me

Under the Sea - The Little Mermaid

2nd place by thistledew4u

Thumbelina's Garden Necklace

3rd place by daniellart

White Rabbit is late, late, late...

You Are My Sunshine!

2010-03-08T18:33:00.000-08:00

My blog received the Sunshine Award! Isn't that sweet?

Thank you so much Illeana!

Check out this beautiful pendant of hers:

In honor of the occasion I thought I'd do a treasury of team mates

in a Sunshine/Summer theme! These items are taken from the

Etsy Bead Weavers (search ebw team) and the Etsy Bloggers

(search etsy bloggers). I'm pretty sure most or all of them have blogs,

so if your in this treasury - consider your self nominated for the award!

Is this the lazy way? Maybe...but I'm having fun :P

I Want You

2010-03-07T13:16:00.000-08:00

Yay - I'm in another treasury! This one is curated by one of my team mates, enchantedbeads, and I love her work! Check out this piece....

The treasury will be up until Wednesday morning - until then you can find it here. My piece is the bottom center.

Artists Exposed

2010-03-06T16:24:00.000-08:00

One thing I've seen and enjoyed over my time on Etsy is the "Artists Exposed" treasuries that I've seen! I've run into quite a few just browsing the treasuries, and many of my friends have been in them as well! Well now it's my turn! And it's awefully funny how excited I am about it considering I hate pictures of myself... My brother took the picture and he says it's me in my natural environment :P I'm third row, on the right, with my head cut off. (oops) You can see it here until Monday afternoon and here's my listing.

Treasury Loving :)

2010-03-01T12:37:00.000-08:00

Last week one of my hemp bracelets was featured in a treasury! I didn't get a chance to promote the treasury while it was active (life's been like that lately) but Karen was kind enough to send me a screen shot so I can show it off anyway :) I'm the bottom center.

I found this necklace in Karen's shop - Mystic Wind. I fell in love with it instantly because I've always loved the big cats! Small cats I sometimes like and sometimes don't, but I've always thought if I was going to be an animal (and not a mythological one) it would be one of the big cats....

Featuring Tilt Creations!

2010-02-19T09:23:00.000-08:00

Today I get to feature Theresa of Tilt Creations. Theresa is not only the featured Etsy Blogger of the month - she's also a great friend :) We've had lots of fun exchanging e-mails and ideas, and I always love seeing what new things she's coming up with! I also can attest to how awesome her work is - because I have one of her ziplet pouches and I use it almost every day for my crocheting supplies!
