the caper is crafty...it's bazaar bizaare!

I've always enjoyed my inner crafter.  You know, the kind who wears Hanes sweatshirts with santa appliques traced in metallic puff paint and dangly jingle bell earrings. I am not ashamed to own a glue gun or that I would rather knit than go out in the winter.  I always have at least 8oz of Modge Podge on hand for decoupage emergencies and more iron on letters and t-shirts than Michael's and Jo-Ann's combined.  Get the picture? 

A few months ago in the restaurant I decided to collect all of our used bottle caps and make nifty little, recycled creations.  After some research in development, I came up with my initial product: kitchen magnets.  I started a little shop on Etsy  to sell my li'l creations and hope to expand my crafty empire in the weeks to come.  I am designing Christmas ornaments now and hope to have those ready in time for the holiday season.  I am really excited about this project because  it will allow me to:

a) quench my desire to craft, craft and craft some more

b) help me make a little $mulah$ to help pay for, well, everything

c) expand my recycled creations into other design as well as feature my "bike tube" jewelry

d) hopefully, it means I will be accepted as a vendor at the most awesomest craft fair ever: Bazaar Bizarre

I hope to be able to split a table with my fabulous friend Jeannie and her amazing knits!  Do you shop/sell on Etsy? I would love to know about your shop/favorite sellers!  

Love and Craft Glue,
