Spot of Tea Designs Etsy Shop First Birthday - discount code and giveaway! | spotofteadesigns.com

One year ago yesterday I had lunch with my good friend, and fellow Etsy shop owner, Laura of Indigo Ink Boutique. Her shop was fairly new but since she did so much research and development prior, she was fast tracking to success. (Seriously check out her site for instant downloads for all sort of holidays and everyday activities including her widely popular personalize handwriting worksheets!)

After leaving that lunch I decided to open my Etsy shop, whose name I had saved years prior. I went live with only a few listings of items I already had created and were easy to convert to an instant download (like these Mermaid Favor Tags – my number one selling item)! I am happy to report I made my first sale only 5 days later and they slowly trickled in after.

I have since slowly added new listings to support holidays and parties I’ve styled.  And with each sale made I’m encouraged to add more to my shop.

    An idea of something great and crafty you could add to your Etsy shop are the school boards. Different styles and designs. I love the ones that have the first and last day. I’ve also see the Apple shaped boards as well.

      Very cute idea! I’m not really looking to get into physical items right now though, only printable stuff.

    I would like to see some outer space themed items. These could be used for a birthday, Valentine’s Day, Mother & Father’s Day, etc…

5 Tips to Make Shell Canvases like this: 🐚 Draw ou 5 Tips to Make Shell Canvases like this:
🐚 Draw out a stencil of your preferred shape. It's optional to paint the shape itself, but even a rough pencil line will keep you on task
🐚 Use strong glue and a lot of it! I used E6000 glue and ended up having to get more than what you see here. 
🐚 Flip the shells over! There are some cool colors on the insides that may match better than the top side. 
🐚 Clean and dry the shells thoroughly. Sorry, but I have no tips about this process as my mom had these ones for year from past trips, but you don't want some smelly shells hanging in your home!
🐚 Don't skip on those little shells as those minis are perfect to fill in the gaps of the collages.

Hello fellow readers! If you're looking for some r Hello fellow readers! If you're looking for some recommendations for historical fiction reads, here are 5 of my favorites I enjoyed last year that I'd recommend to readers who like this genre (with no spoilers):
.
The Frozen River by Arial Lawhorn – Takes place in the post American Revolution times, narrated by a midwife sharing her challenges in this profession and not being taken seriously but still having people trust her medical authority. It includes a murder and trial, which just reiterates how crazy it was to be a woman back then and their lack of rights!
.
The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel – Like many of her books, this author focuses on the French aspect of WWII, but this time as those who helped forge documents to help Jewish children cross the border.
.
The Nature of Fragile Things by Susan Miessner – Follow Susan Whalen who comes to San Francisco in 1906 as a mail order bride only to get into the middle of a complicated life after marrying a man she never met and things she discovers during a nature disaster in her state.
.
The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali – Starts in the 1950s in Iran where we meet two friends and follow their story through the historic time of this country. This fictional read shares more about the culture and limitations of women and those who try to change the government while struggling to maintain friendships.
.
The Rose Code by Kate Quinn – An assortment of female friendships during WWII as they work to break secret codes by the German military and continues to follow their stories through the years.
.
If you have a suggestion on another in this genre, please leave it in the comments so I can add to my TBR!
