Etsy can't be that tough...can it?


Recently on the How About Orange blog (which I love because 1, it mentions orange, and 2, that will piss J and others off...)--the gal (sorry should have at least researched her name) mentioned making some bookmarks using vintage fabrics and putting them up on Etsy (hey, how many parenthetical remarks can I cram into this sentence? looks like...three!). Which got me thinking...this can't be that hard to do, right? Wouldn't that be a nice way to make a little extra cash? Hmmm....


I am kind of thinking about selling my feather boots on Etsy. I like them, but I don't wear them that often, an
d I think someone else might wear them more. Plus, they are kinda cool (I think), so maybe someone would actually pay $$ for them. What do you think? Here's a not-so-great photo of them. (the camera is still a problem) FYI they are on my new bedspread on the right. I'm totally digging the bedspread, although it goes with nothing in my bedroom. But apparently it does go with the box that holds my printer (in photo on left). Because lord knows it would be great if my bedroom looked more like my office...

The Hideous Before-math

Just so's you know how far I've come, here's that same armoire in its original fugly state and completely surrounded by crap. (this, btw, is the first thing you see in my house if you come in and immediately go to the left, so it's nice that it's incrementally more presentable)...

Next up--selling a bunch of crap on cl.

The armoire! Eet ees done!


The little stripes took a while to paint. But I like it--and I can paint it over with different color stripes as I change my decor.
