Halloween Sale

This weekend only we are having a monsterous Halloween sale. All Halloween collars are 31% OFF. That is the deepest discount we have ever had on Etsy. Get your collar for this year and stock up for next year too! Don't delay on the collar you want it might not be here in a few hours. Especially if it is listed that I only have a few left!

I Can't Believe....

In this edition of I Can't Believe... it hasn't sold. Some of the collars that I think are the most adorable and would be sold out before I could repost them on etsy. Haven't yet to sell. And I just can't believe it! Here are a few of the ones that I can't believe haven't sold yet!

Picassa

I have a new found love for picture editing. And it is Picassa. I downloaded it for FREE two weeks ago and I love it. I can do the basics: crop, shade, enlighten, ect but I can now make collages! Which I love and it is so easy it takes only a few minutes. So keep you eye out for some awesome picture collages! I also think that pictures "clean" up nicer and the background it truly white. Before I would take my collar pictures right when the sun was the brightest on a white background and sometimes the pictures would look like a white background but most of the time it turn out be a gray or brown tone background. But with Picassa it knows that I want an all white background and when I click the little, "I'm Feeling Lucky" button my background goes to white. I love it! So if you are in need of good picture editting software then look no further than Picassa by Google. It rules! Happy Editing!

Weekend Sale!!

That little sale that I mentioned the other day is in full force! Buy One Collar and Get a FREE Leash Bag! Go ahead and look through the leash bags in my store and if there is not suits your fancy I can pick one to coordinate with your collar.

This sale goes through the end of the weekend so hurry along and get your shopping on.

Halloween Styles are out!

So here are all most of the Halloween collars for this year! I am really excited about them and can't wait for October to roll out so that Taylor and Leo can be wearing their Halloween collars without the "isn't that a little early" look from some people. So from top to bottom, left to right we have: Trick or Treat with Yellow and Orange Dots, Pumpkins and Cats (this it the last one!), Spooky Spiders, Witches and Pumpkins with and without dots, Orange and Black Dots, Trick or Treat, Treats, Witches Hats with Black and White Dots, Black Jack-O-Lantern, Frightful Flowers, Witches Hats, Happy Pumpkins, and Orange Jack-O-Lanterns.
On all of the small collars you can add a 3/8" trim with polka dots to make it a 1" and truly your own. It is too cute to pass up! A little heads up to all my blog readers... this weekend I am having a sale. Buy a collar and get a leash bag for free. You can take part in this sale starting now all you have to do is type "Early Weekend Sale" in the Notes to Seller box on Etsy to get the free leash bag. That way you can still get the collar you want. I can't get more of these ribbons once they sell out so don't delay!

A New Project This Week

This week just flew by thanks to an awesome Labor Day. I felt like I didn't have time to do much work during nap time which seems to be the only time for me to do work since I have an overly active almost 2 year old. I was out of 1" webbing, until today, so I couldn't make wider Halloween collars so I decided to try something different and I think the results are awesome!

I had some bigger pieces of fabric and so I made plastic bag holders. I had one that I bought at a craft show a couple of years ago that was bright red and full of tomatoes. The function was great but I hid it in my closet and closed my eyes everytime I filled it with bags. It was just too country for my style and all the other bags I found were just as country. That is why I love this fabric. It is trendy, unique, appealing, and fun! These two I have for sale in my second etsy shop 10 Toes. I have been thinking that I want another to keep in our backyard shed for scooping the pooping. I am not sure which fabric I will use for the shed. Maybe the brown or maybe I will go all out and get some outdoor fabric!

Etsy's new custom sort feature!

So Etsy.com, which I think most of my readers know what I am talking about when I just say etsy, has just launched a feature so that sellers can sort the items in their shop themselves. (Here is the link to the article.) Until just yesterday, you could sort one of four ways: price... highest to lowest or lowest to highest, date added... most recently or least recently. Sorting this way was fine for the time being but let me tell you!! I feel like a whole new woman and have sorted my shop accordingly.

My sections are divided how you seen it below...

But now when you click on custom sorter you can browse my collars by COLOR!!!

So when you first start browsing by the new custom sorter you will see fall colors and collars, followed by browns then green, purple, red, blue, yellow, black and white, pink, and finishing up with my leash bags and upgrades! It is so fun. I can't promise at this time that I will keep it sorted by color but for right now I am very happy with it. Just as happy as the Iowa Hawkeyes pulling out a win but just by the hair on their chinny chin chin. Get it together guys!
