Treasury Time

I have been a little delayed on my blog and shop.  I had family in town and a little girl who just turned five, so needless to say I have been dedicating my time to all of them.  Now that life is back to normal I have been busy designing and blogging and treasuring.  Here are a few of my new treasuries I just posted to Etsy.  There are some lovely finds here and I encourage you to visit each.  Such warm and inviting items are awaiting you.

A Glitter Stone?

So the new trendy item out there is Druzy Stones!  For those of you who have not seen these beautiful sparklers….you are missing out!  Here is a little bit of info on the druzy stone itself.

Druzy is the glittering effect of tiny crystals that layover top a colorful mineral.  These stones have a shimmery and glittery appearance and can come in many different color palettes.  Druzy stones are inexpensive compared to other gemstones on the market.  

Several stores offer faux druzy stones for an even more discounted gem!  They look just like the real thing but at a fraction of the cost.  I have purchased faux druzy stones to use in my store.  Once I become more educated in the true mineral itself I will be branching out.  I just simply love the simplicity of these stones and their overall shimmery effect.

Here are some druzy stone finds on Etsy that I think you will enjoy.

Couch Sparkle Wristlet--no longer on sale but I snagged one on Ebay for only $35!  Original price was $48.

I am a huge supporter of Etsy.  I have my own shop there, Little Bleu Feather Studios.  So I thought it would be fun to add some great bags that are currently for sale on Etsy.
