Dear Lovers of Handmade Goods,

Dear Lovers of Handmade Goods,

We had another great Sneak Attack over on +Etsy with the Handmade Movement.  Sandi and Paula found 4 great shops for us to sneak up on.

They left us clues throughout the day to help us guess our way to the shops.  I like to make a story out of the clues.

 ---A PEARL grew in an ORANGE FLOWER next to a HERB garden in a GLASS pot.  It was the middle of SUMMER and the PUMPKIN TEA wasn't quite ready for harvesting.  The WIRE cages looked like upside down CHANDELIER's in the GARDEN of EARTH with a SWIRL of life.  A small SKULL sat in the center of the plants to ward off any PUNKs that might bother the HEART of the vegetation.  The SNOW no longer DANCED around the STARS like the ZIG-ZAG pattern on my last BIRTHDAY.  There was just a DRAWER with a PHONE with a FUNKY little ring.---


I love random word stories!

Our first shop was WiredTigress featuring wonderful handmade beaded and wire wrapped jewerly.

Our second shop was HighlandSoapworks with the most magnificent handmade soaps.

Our third shop was terristeases that was full of handmade gift cards.

Our final shop was FunkyTraditionalKnit which was full of buttons and knitted goodies!

All in all, it was a wonderful Valentines Sneak Attack!
