Feature Friday: Exercise With Miss Couch Potato Series

For this week's Feature Friday I'd like to introduce the new series at Bon&Chi's Etsy Store~ :D

Exercise with Miss Couch Potato

There's 3 different "exercises" that Miss Couch Potato is involved in at the moment:

No. 1: Yoga~ 
Stretch that arm~ Reach for that snack!! X3

No. 2: Swimming~
Relax in the bathtube, put your feet up!

No. 3: Marathon~
Movie marathons are the ultimate challenge in couch potato-ness!!

Enjoy~ :D

Wednesday Stroll Around Etsyland #1

Following Laura from Sahara's Heart and Lelanie from To Sew With Love's examples~ I'm going to try and do some window shopping and stroll around Etsyland every Wednesday~ :)

So for this morning's fantasy Etsyland stroll~

It was a relatively mild and warm winter morning (this is fantasy Etsyland~ ;p) so I put on this cute "Be a Gift" dress (from tidabeads)

And carry this "Knitted bag" (by NzLbags)~

which shall contain this little "mini purse" with cute little flowers (by michellechan1010) 

I pick up my neighbor's little "french bulldog enid" (by everyeskimo), whom I adore and had offered to take for a walk today~ 

We headed for the local park~ which has this magnificent "Splendid sunburst" tree (by LarryCarlsonStudio), which enid loved to run circles around~ :)

Here at the park, we met my friend "Emma" who was on vacation (by okapiknits), and asked if she wanted to go have some lunch together. 

We agreed on having some "California Sushi Roll" (by Cornstarch) but they were too cute to eat... so we set them free... ;p

And instead, we had some "Cherry Marshmallows" (by OhYum)

and some "Homemade Chocolate Fudge" (by Shopadoodledo)

The End~ 

(lol~ X3)

Handmadeology Break Out Series

Bon&Chi's Game vs. Gamer Memo holder was lucky enough today to get featured in the "Break Out Series" of the the brilliant Handmadeology blog. Yay~ Thank you so much Tim for this~ We really really appreciate it! X3

Through Handmadeology Tim shares his knowledge and tips on how to be successful in selling handmade items online. He also helps promote Etsy sellers by featuring them on his blog~ :3 It's a really helpful site and has a very stylish set up, please check it out if you have a chance~ :3

When I first stumbled across Handmadeology, Tim was featuring 10 fresh shop in his new Break Out series (1st Jan 2011). I would like to share with you four of which I really liked~ :3

• FlutterbyeNotes: has really really cute cards and notes, perfect gifts for teachers! They can also customize the notes to your needs~ X3
• LabyrinthHerbals: sells lovely and soothing looking soaps and lip balms~ (^o^)

(yay~ I managed to get this blog posted before today ended~ as I had promised on my comment! X3 Though I don't think anyone would have noticed my comment anyways.... ;p Teehee~ can sleep guilt-free tonight!)

Tuesday Pounce Some Treasures: UnderTheStairsStudio

Hello hello~ :3 Okay so I've only done like one Tuesday Treasures so far... but have decided to modify the name slightly to combine Tuesday Treasures with the Pounce a New Shop~ So the idea is to pounce and introduce a new shop while making a treasury, killing 2 birds with 1 stone! :D (aren't I a smart cookie now~ teehee~)

So today's Pounce a Fresh Shop that I'd like to introduce is: UnderTheStairsStudio

UnderTheStairsStudio is run by Morgan K, who is from sunny Brisbane Australia~ (Gooday mate~ :D). She is a really creative person and graduated with a BA of Interior Designs and also does painting on top of making beautiful zippy brooches and accessories for her shop~

Her Zippy flowers on heart brooches are just soooo adorable~ They're so pretty and girly, they make me feel like a young girl again~ (*goes off to twirl in the flower garden*)

She has more pictures of her work on her flickr page and you can see what she's been up to creatively on her blog~ :)

And here is the Tuesday Treasures treasury that I put together (including Morgan's lovely heart brooch) for the Team Discovery Treasury Challenge~ :)

Pounce a Fresh Shop: Lofiphotography

Ahh~ I'm late with the Tuesday Pounce with the Etsian Newbie Team, but I guess late is better than never! 


For the first Pounce a Fresh Shop I'd like to introduce Jenni C from Lofiphotography~ :)
I discovered her through the Etsian Newbie group while I was making a treasury for the Wednesday Team Undiscovered treasury challenge.

Jenni started her love and talent for photography since six grade! She won second place back then with a black and white photo which she also developed herself~ :D I love the mood that her photos portray, it really takes my imagination on a journey! 


Here are some of her work that she is currently selling on her Etsy shop~ Please show her some love and let her photos take your mind away too~ 

I'd also like to share with you the treasury that I made for today's Team Undiscovered treasury challenge, which also features Jenni's item~ :)







Peace~
