Here's the story. Last fall we put in a lovely new tile floor in our living room. A great couch and two oriental rugs followed. Soon, I was recovering lampshades and switch plates. It was fun, satisfying, and addictive. So I made more--crinkled silk lampshades with antique birds and paper flowers collaged around the rim. Japanese stamps arranged on a switch plate. Fragments of poetry by W.B. Yeats shared a picture frame with crazy decorative papers.
So several months later, I have all these beautiful housewares and no where to put them. There are only so many switches and lamps in the house. I've been a fan of Etsy for a while. I love browsing all the categories and have made a point of buying presents from different sellers for special occasions in my family. It occurred to me that I could try becoming a seller myself. the idea was a little intimidating. Well, I went ahead and took the plunge. It's time to announce my Etsy store.
