Featured Seller: Harriet's Haven!!!

Today's Featured Seller is an Environmentally Friendly One! This adorable shop is loaded with Everyday Items that Every One of Us could benefit from! Say Hello to Harriet's Haven!
http://www.etsy.com/shop/HarrietsHaven
Okay...hands down this Ladybug Reusable Sandwich Bag is adorable....I know that my daughter would love to get her hands on this. Let's learn a little more about this great seller!
~"My name is Rebecca Fowler, and I make reusable and functional items in my etsy shop, Harriet's Haven.
~"My items vary from flour sack towels and reusable sandwich bags to bullentin boards and burlap placemats and coasters.
~"My draft dodgers are a great way to reduce winter chills and block air-conditioning in unwanted areas. All of my items have one thing in common, they are all stenciled with my original designs drawn by me, mostly inspired by nature. They also serve a purpose and can be enjoyed for years to come.
~"My greatest motivation is my kids. They are ages 4 and 1, and keep me busy. I truly enjoy being home with them and can't imagine having to leave them everyday to go to work.
~"I previously worked as a bank teller for 7 years and other various jobs prior to that. When I was pregnant with my second child, my husband and I decided to make this work, so I was able to quit working at the back.
~"So I am very grateful for having a loving and generous hubby to push me further toward my dream of a creative career."

~Thanks so much for sharing with us Rebecca! I'm so inspired by other SAHMs!

Today's Featured Seller: Paul Giunta Photography!!!

Today's Spotlight is on another Amazing Photographer! Say Hello to Paul Giunta Photography!!!
http://www.etsy.com/shop/paulgiunta
Isn't this Bridge Picture awesome....I love how all the photographs in this shop make me feel like I'm right there!
Alright....lets learn a little about the Photographer!
~"It all started when I was 11. My parents were assembling items for a garage sale, and one bin in particular caught my eye—it contained a collection of no longer used cameras. I tucked away the nicest of the bunch for myself and spent the subsequent afternoons of my childhood pointing it at everything I could. I don’t recall actually having film in that first camera, but something about freezing a moment, an expression, or a thought in time captured my imagination.
~"Years later, it’s still the same—my camera is never far from my side, and I’m always snapping away. I still don’t have film in my camera, thanks to digital—some things never change.

~"Inspiration: I tend to draw from all that is around me. I love to make the seemingly ordinary become interesting and beautiful. Also, living in Southern California, being married to a wonderful woman, and sharing two adorable (and sometimes troublesome) puppies makes me a very happy person.
~"Motivation: Currently I am about halfway through a "Take a Photograph a Day" project which keeps me moving. It has helped me to understand that not every photograph that I make will be fantastic, but the fact that I consistently maintain my practice of the craft makes me a better photographer."

Featured Seller: Aggie Ray!!!

Today's Spotlight is another super cute shop that I've been just dying to share for a while....say Hello to Aggie Ray!
http://www.aggieray.etsy.com/
Isn' t this Bag SOOOOOO.....ADORABLE!!!! Well, I'm telling you that this Shop is beyond adorable....I had the hardest time deciding what to spotlight (but because I have a lil obsession with bags....I chose all bags).
Alright...enough about my quirks....let us learn more about this great seller!
~"My name in Linda and I have lived in Rhode Island my entire life. I live in a small town called Kings Town with my husband, daughter and son, 21 and 24.....yeah 24 and still at home, but working. My daughter is entering her last year of college.
~"I love to come up with unique designs for handbags to sell in my shop.
~"I am not the type of person to make the same item over and over again. I need variety in style and color.
~" As a child, I was always creating. For Christmas, I would always request a craft kit of some sort, but my very first item that I created with a sewing machine was an apron in 7th Grade. I can still picture it with the ruffles, gathering at the shoulders and of course the ric rac accents.
~"I love the support you receive from other artists online. We are so lucky to have the ability to access so many places though the internet that we would not have access to 20 years ago."
