It's Green in Texas by Gemuine Creations

Steph of GemuineCreations has been busy again! She is on fire with treasuries!

Lovely Treasuries

Handmade Whimzy is fortunate enough to be in 4 treasuries this weekend! YAY!

Thanks so much to GemuineCreations, AmysBodyDecor, Bellavioletta, and TexasEagle. You all made gorgeous treasuries with the use of COLOR and they all turned out great! Etsy admin's unfortunate use of the "shade" beige on the front age repeatedly is getting pretty OLD.
I would love to see one of these beautiful, colorful treasuries make the front page.

If you click each treasury, the link will take you to the treasury where you can click each gorgeous item, post a comment or mark some of the sellers as your new favs!

Blushing Beauties

GemuineCreations has created another lovely treasury. Pretty pinks and black and whites.

Thanks so much Stephanie, for featuring my Princess bookmark!

Your treasury is so pretty and definitely front page worthy.

Stephanie's shop is full of pretty handmade jewelry. I love these earrings from her shop.

You can view and click on Blushing Beauties here. Let's all give Gemuinecreations treasury some love!

I will be at the Bullard Red, White, and Blue Festival this coming Saturday, November the 7th from 9 am to 5 pm in Bullard, Texas. This is a really fun festival to attend, so if you're in the area, drop on by. They have a parade, live entertainment all day and lots of good food and of course, arts and crafts vendors.

The following Saturday, November 14th, I will be at the First Christian Church Christmas Bazaar from 9 am to 4 pm. I have never had a booth at their Christmas Bazaar before but I've heard it's a great arts and crafts show and I'm really looking forward to it.
