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…

Some highlights of what my yard produced this year Some highlights of what my yard produced this year:
🎃 Gourds - currently 42 harvested and drying, but tons more coming!
🌞 Yellow Roses - these 2 plants bloom at least 4 times in spring and summer!
🍅 Tomatoes - tons of Roma and Supersweet 100 breeds used for appetizers, sauces and salads. Happy to grow and to gift these away!
🧄 Garlic - planted last fall and harvested in June. Doing this again this October! Should I also do onions?
💜 Lavender - The bees love them. I missed the window to dry them but putting that on my list to try next year. Would you want a little satchel of lavender? 
🥒 Cucumbers - slice it up and add some sea salt. Yum!

.
Our group of 2 adults and 5 kids were hosted by TreeTopQuestPhilly and enjoyed a sunny Saturday exploring obstacles, climbing and ziplining and we'd highly recommend this park! 
.
Here some key details to know before you go:
- The staff is super knowledgable, friendly and patient with climbers of all abilities, but it is self paced where you are in control of your own equipment. 
- You attend an equipment fitting, safety instruction and practice course before you climb 
- Expect to spend the full 2.5 hours of your reservation and you likely won't need sunglasses in this shady spot
- Gloves are an optional purchase, but we didn't get them and no one got any blisters
- There are 4 levels of courses with Level 4 being for those 12+ only. It's HIGH but thrilling to those willing to check it out! 
- Porta potties and lockers are available at the check in area and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at in the park. Spectators are free to watch from below. 
.
PROMO CODE: Use code SPOTOFTEADESIGNS for 15% off your online ticket order to climb!

Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate piece shown on the video and add it to the back of your pennant to help it hang more securely, hide the ribbon and not move as much when hung.

Special thanks to @wildercrafting who shared this tip YEARS ago, and I still use it when creating my simple banners.

If you're on a fence about creating a garden next If you're on a fence about creating a garden next year.... do it! While I personally don't eat everything we grow (not a pepper fan!), I do enjoy being outside, caring for the plants, and feeding friends and family!

You can start this fall with garlic! You start planting them in the fall, and you'll enjoy them by summer.
