Lost in Translation, part three

It's been a while since I have posted in this little series, but I have collected many more photographs to share with you. I'll start with the most recent, which went up today. These are posted outside the door to the garbage chute.

There are more posted in the lobby, which I will put up another day, perhaps tomorrow. For those of you not familiar with this little series, this is a collection of notes that the super of my building likes to put up from time to time. Unfortunately his English translations from his native Spanish are atrocious. My boyfriend says that the Spanish versions he pastes up are mostly well-written, so perhaps he is using an online translator which is giving him these funny results with the English translation. And anyway, he's a terrible super (don't even get me started on it!), so don't feel bad having a chuckle at his expense. More to come...

Etsy Treats: Releaf Handmade

I bought an adorable felt brooch at a local craft fair this summer, and I had promised I would photograph it and post about it. But alas, before I got around to it, I lost the little fella... I was so sad, so I decided to scour Etsy for a suitable replacement. To my delight, I found this wonderful flower brooch from a cute new shop, Releaf Handmade. And I think I like this one even better than the former!Along with cute felt flower brooches, Releaf Handmade also features wallets, zippered pouches, and more. My brooch was packaged very sweetly too. I love this boxy pencil pouch she has!

Sale!

I've been running a Labor Day sale in both etsy shops this weekend, and I now realized that I didn't even post about it here... oops, sorry!

The sale runs through the end of today, Monday September 7th (midnight EDT). I am offering a 15% discount in both shops, and in addition, in honor of my birthday which was also this weekend, you will get free gifts with each purchase!

I am including two free cards when you make a purchase from Cutiepie Company, and two free magnets with a purchase from Hunter's Hideaway. If you have had your eye on something from the shops, don't delay!

Vote: Etsy Community Poll

Hello friends, I am in another Community vote on Etsy this week. If you don't already know about these, the way to get selected is simply to nominate yourself! On Mondays, Etsy usually publishes an article about the previous week's winner, and asks for nominations for the next poll. Each week there is a different theme, so when you see one that suits your shop, nominate yourself by posting a link to your item in the comments section! I do believe that items are chosen for the Voter in the order they are received, so don't delay. You can also nominate others of course, and I try to do that as well as nominate myself (I'm not selfish all the time...) That said, if you haven't already voted in this week's round, head on over and please feel free to cast your vote for me! My mixed media print is included. I have been a bit absent again lately, but trying to catch up! I hope to share with you later this week what I have been working on. In addition to starting on some holiday designs, I have been doing a very special custom/wholesale order, which is almost complete. Look for a post or two on that soon. I gocco screenprinted some custom silhouettes for this order, and I may try to write a more detailed post on that!
