I've been tagged :)

I got tagged this morning by Michelle over at Little Paper Dog. I have to tell six things about myself that most people don't know and then tag 5 Etsy Bloggers. When you leave here, you should head over to Michelle's Etsy shop - you'll find some super cute gocco prints such as :





She just had her grand opening on August 8 so she's still a new Etsy shop :).

Ok.....6 things about me that most people don't know :

1 - I would love to be rich - I know that seems like a compromise considering I'm an artist and I should be all about artistic integrity and creating art for the sake of expression and all that. I DO believe in those things. But my dream is to make so much money from my photography that I can pay off my mortgage, buy an electric car, and travel all over Europe and India.

2 - Most of my online friends don't know that I'm going to be getting married in April of this coming year :).

3 - I make lists for everything...my longest list is entitled "Your Handmade Life - what this means to you". It's five typed pages long and it has everything that I want to incorporate into my life from recycling every day to shopping locally to hanging original art all over my house :).

4 - Everytime we get a lab (we've had a black lab and a chocolate lab) they either run away or disappear. We don't know what happens to them. We've heard that labs are bad for this from other people and it's because of this that we will never get another lab.

5 - I love owls.

6 - I love eggs for breakfast. I could seriously eat them everyday :).


Ok, here are the Etsy Blogger Street Team members I am tagging:

1 - Angie over at JellyBean's Art - I have been in love with her 'jellybean tree' prints for awhile now :). You can find one of her Etsy shops here.

2 - Licia - her blog is called Myself in Pieces - it's introspective, beautiful, and personal. Her artwork is dreamy and lucious as well. Her Etsy shop is called Theophany.

3 - Shell at Shell Mitchell Accessories and Design. She has some super cute gloves in her Etsy shop. I'm going to have to keep her in mind when it comes to xmas giving this year :). Here's her shop.

4 - Julie at Sew It's For You - Oh my gosh - personalized, embroidered dishtowels and cloth napkins. That's on my short list of things that I want to get this year. I need dishtowels but I'm seriously holding out until I can afford some of these :). Find her shop here.

5 - My Aphrodite.....she was born in America and now calls England home. She makes some absolutely amazing jewelry - I'm loving her little bird necklaces. You can find her on Etsy right here.

I'm providing links to everyone's blogs here, but feel free to check out the Etsy minis they have posted on their blogs. It will take you straight to their Etsy shops. Soooo, without further ado...

TAG - you're IT!!
