Tuesday Treasuries

Treasuries on etsy are gallery collections of items for sale grouped under a theme chosen by the curator.  This is a fun way to showcase the talents and work of creative shop owners.
Blogging Business Artisans requires its members to curate one treasury per month.  Each week we will feature one of the past week's treasuries here on our team blog.

Spring has arrived for most of us.  This gorgeous treasury Colors of Spring! by Erika of Artful Rising captures the fresh greens of Spring leaves and the lovely blues of the sky.


This lovely bracelet of chrysophase, Czech fire-polished, and lampwork beads was made by Janet of Honey from the Bee.  It's the perfect accessory for Spring!






This cute button bracelet by Random Creative was created from various shades of green buttons and seed beads.  How sweet that would look on the wrist of someone special (like you!).





More lovely treasuries from our teammates this week:

Be sure to check back here every week for more Tuesday Treasuries!
