Color me......Pumpkin!

Or shades there of.....

Here are a few of my picks for the day -- makeup in beautiful shades to pick up your mood!

I have featured Beautiful Twists by Ella Dean before, and I can't say enough about how much I get a kick out of her Smoochalicious lip gloss and their descriptions!  Each one has a unique and cute story to go along with it.  Not only is it worth buying the lip gloss, but reading through the shop descriptions is amusing! 

Autumn Leaves and Candy Corn

Patina Mineral's Shop features 'natural organic mineral makeup'.  Here is a 4 piece eye shadow kit in browns.  A beautiful way to show off your Autumn look!

And last, but not least (and most certainly because I LOVE PUMPKIN PIE), Virtue Natural's Pumpkin Pie Body Scrub!  A mix of cane sugar, brown sugar, Shea butter, and pumpkin seed oil.  A wonderful addition to your morning shower!

Eh?......Am I drooling?

Ok, so this last treasury that I assembled on Etsy just about did me in.  I never realized how many people sell tasty eats on Etsy!  So many tasty, tempting, treats to look through!  With that said, I have to gripe for a minute......  Etsty-ers were complaining the other day about how hard it was to make the front page.  I don't blame them!  When I think of what 'handmade' means to me, I think of the craft shows I have been to.  Quilts, food, painted wood items, crafted dolls, etc.  Etsy has a bad habit of posting too many 'luxe' items on the front page.  IT IS NOT A GOOD REPRESENTATION OF WHAT ETSY IS ABOUT!  Not that the items on the front page aren't beautiful, (perhaps not MY taste), but where is the representation for the rest of the Etsy shops?  Anyhoo....here are a couple of my treasury inspired postings for today!

Halloween Marshmallows

Chocolate Espresso Cake Truffles

White Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake

Create and Imagine.....

The last of the message charm necklaces that I have made -- 'Create' and 'Inspire'!  The Swarovski crystals are so pretty!  'Create' has a peridot crystal leaf and two deep brown pearls, and 'Inspire' has a starfish pendant in crystal golden sand with two bright gold pearls.  Say it sweetly, say it simple....say it with a message charm necklace!

Dollhouse Pumpkin Pie

Doesn't this look absolutely tasty? Ok.....but unfortunately it is only for your dolls! Betsy Niederer Miniatures -- Goddess of Chocolate on Etsy, will provide you with detailed instructions on how to make this and other cute confections for your miniature collection! Oh if I could only bake like this in real life!

And for those of you who could never make something so small by yourself (because it would just end up looking something like a mouse poop), here is Allie's Minis....maker of Dollhouse Food and Food Jewelry!  Now I have to go make something to eat......

Miniature Pizza

Every Day is a Potential Friday.

I went to the great Minnesota get together yesterday -- the Minnesota State Fair!  Cheese curds, mini doughnuts, hot dog, cotton candy.....my diet went on hiatus.  It was a girls day out with my friend and our little girls.  What a great time!

Chocolate and Pink Necklace

My necklace choice for today, is a 'Chocolate and Pink Necklace', created with snowflake jasper, rose quartz, and crazy lace agate.  It reminds me of a wonderful blend of chocolate and strawberry ice cream with swirls of caramel drizzled in! 









Aside from wine.....I do enjoy a hot cup of tea from time to time!  If you drink tea, and have a penchant for the exotic, or enjoy trying something new, come take a browse through Red Leaf Tea's shop at Etsy!  Like a little sugar with that tea?  Here are some Demitasse Sugar Swizzle Sticks -- YUM!

White Demitasse Sugar Swizzle Sticks

Looks Tasty Enough to Eat!!

KCSoapsNmore

Here's a great gift idea!  These items look sooooo yummy!  I also found a tasty looking pumpkin pie.....  I'm a sucker for most anything that has to do with fall or Halloween.  Cupcakes, cookies, candy, sugar scrubs, bar soap, and more.  Check out KCSoapsNmore to see what other sweet soaps there are!
