Take part in this exciting global event!
UPDATE - Due the overwhelming response to this fabulous blog fest,
we're adding an additional Fairy Wish Bottle for every 100 comments...
...so now there's 2 Fairy Wish Bottles up for grabs will there be THREE!
We are so excited be involved in this global networking event. This is the forth year of this huge blog giveaway, but it's our first time participating...how fun! We are very much looking forward to meeting new and interesting bloggers out there in the blog universe.
Here's a little something about 'One World One Heart'...
Lisa Swifka of 'My Life as a Whimsical Bohemia' created this event in 2007. The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. Lisa says, "It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way". As of 2009, 911 bloggers from 28 countries participated. Can't wait to see the total this year!
In Lisa's words, "It transcends geographical location, socio economics, political affiliation, religious beliefs......it's a coming together like the giant community we are on this planet. If only it took a simple giveaway to create PEACE everywhere, in the mean time here we give from our hearts. We are not solving the worlds problems nor are we curing anything nor are we changing the world. We are merely generating a closer community between humans through blogging."
Contest starts NOW and ends February 15, 2010
So, in keeping with this year's theme of "Magic Carpet Ride", We offer up, for your sparkly wish fulfillment, your very own FAiRY WiSH bOtTLe!
Ametista’s FAiRY WiSH bOtTLes were created for the specific purpose of wish granting.
The first step to getting anything one wants is to envision it. You must have a clear image of what you desire. Writing down your intentions is a good way to strengthen your focus.
Now as everyone knows, fairies carry wishes into the realm of possibility...one of the more helpful/less mischievous tasks they perform. So do be careful what you wish for, you are likely to get it!

Julie of JulieVision.etsy.com created this awesome treasury featuring......
SKULL KINGS
SKULL KINGS
Julie, calls herself a purse-o-holic.
She loves to match everything, which is why she started making
accessories to go with everything she owns.
Julie believes accessorizing should be possible
without breaking the bank (which is just what we ladies love to hear...LOL!).
She does her best to sell all items for as
reasonable a price as possible.
"Now if I could only figure out how to make shoes"...gotta love her.
She also makes lampwork glass beads.
If you have the perfect bead, bag or idea in your head,
put in a request for a custom item and she'll be more than happy
to work with you on your idea...
fun...fun...fun.
As you'll see by the names she chooses
for each of her items, she feels accessorizing
should be done with a sense of humor.

January 15 - Blog Carnival
In 2010, Kathy and I are working on our marketing strategies, getting a little more organized and creating....creating....creating. We're talking about revamping our jewelry line by designing our own line of pendants made from PMC and Copper. Also be sure to check in on our Yoga Fairy shop, we will be changing the wings on our adorable little fairies, we're very excited about that too. We have a lot of ideas for this year that are still in the talk phases, but will soon be put in to action.
We hope to accomplish twice as much as we did last year. We want to do more craft shows and we're looking forward to being a part of the Renaissance Festival again this year. We learned a lot from last year and will be doing things a little bit differently on how we'll be setting up our booth. We're taking other vendors advice and just things we realized would've been better and we should have a spectacular booth...not that our other booth wasn't awesome because we did get a lot of people telling us they loved our booth.
Overall, we'll be concentrating on organization, creating, networking and helping out wherever we can.
We hope that each and everyone has a prosperous New Year and keep creating!

A cause near and dear to my heart...
As some of you may know, my son Alex (a remarkable, amazing and wonderful little boy...if I do say so myself.) is one of the many children who has been challenged with Autism. And while I may think he's one in a million, he is in fact, one in seventy. One out of seventy boys is now diagnosed with this is devastating neurological disorder and there is still no cure in sight.
What you see here not only represents the work of artisans from all over, who support the cause of Autism Awareness via their craft, but it also represents hope...the hope for a cure. Kathy and I are very pleased that an item from our shop was chosen to be part of this very special Etsy treasury!
