Okay, I'm trying to understand twitter!! How in the world is it different than just regular email? Anyone??? It's a whole new world for me!!!

My Shops

What a perfect rainy day! Off today from my day job, love it!

I've spending some more time on my shops. My ebay shope at Mariecat13 and my Etsy's shops at Laura47 and The Paper Shoppe. It's so much fun. Now I need to promote them!

If you visit this blog leave a comment or share with someone, let me know and I'll get you 10% off any of my items on any shop. Hey, it's a deal! This will be valid until the end of February 2009, and who knows what I'll do next month!

Keep checking in.

A Celebrity on ETSY

How exciting, I just saw that Rosie O'donnell is selling some of her crafts (munnys) on ETSY!! All of her proceeds go to her Rosie's kids foundation. And, boy oh boy her stuff is selling like hotcakes! I know she is not a favorite of everyone, but she does do a lot for kids and I happen to think she is very funny. Also, the exposure ETSY will now get from her should be fantastic. Well, at least I'm hoping it will.

My mission this week is to get some more items listed. Too much to do and soooo very little time. I've definetly noticed sales have be very slow. Hoping that this economy doesn't sink too much lower, very scary times indeed. But, we have to stay positive right???

Thank you to Jen's Closet

Thank you Jen at Jen's closet. You inspired me to star a Blog and assured me how simple it is to do and boy were you right. Jen has a great vintage shop on etsy too. You can visit at http://www.jenscloset.etsy.com/, believe me she has a little bit of everything vintage, you'll love it...

First Time For Everything

Well, I've been wanting to set up a Blog for sometime now and I thought it would be a difficult task....Well, guess I was wrong! This is pretty simple, I must say.

I had set up a small vintage shop on Etsy.com late last year (2008) and I'm always looking for ways to promote my shop, so hopefully I can do that here on my blog. I've been a collector/treasure hunter for many years now and I love sharing my finds. My shop name is http://www.laura47.com/, it's all things vintage.

As you can tell I have a tremdous love of flowers! Can't wait for spring and all the hope it brings.
