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.

This beautiful treasury, Color Inspiration curated by Edi of Memories for Life SB is definitedly filled with an explosion of color!

These little felt owls are the cutest!  They are part of a baby mobile.  What a cute shop!  Heather's etsy store, I Hart Felt is filled with plushies, baby mobiles, ornaments, and party favors.

Kathy's watercolors are exquisite!  Sometimes, she even paints ACEOs (Art Cards, Editions and Originals). This original ACEO, A Mouse House and some Cheese for the meeses is so cute!  Kathy loves to paint the wonderful animals in her life.  Do visit her shop tapestry316
