Rainy Day Company

It sure is nice to have some sweet faced company on a rainy day, while I'm getting some work done on the computer.



Have a wonderful and productive Thursday, Everyone!

Escape!

After you let a pair of kittens get a taste of the outdoor life...



.. they really want to run in and out all day long! It might be impossible to keep them inside, actually.

They love it!

Just a little note..

Another hot summer day here, great for running some errands. We went to the post office to ship off some orders, and dropped some items off at the thrift store to donate. While we were there we went in (of course!), and I found some really sweet vintage things for Etsy. I hope to get some photos of the items tomorrow so I can show you, and update the shop!

The giveaway that MouseVox Vintage was hosting for the SS Vintage on her blog has closed! Thank you all who entered, and make sure to stop by Rachel's blog and visit her! Congratulations to the winner, Wendy! I will be in touch with you soon about your $20 gift certificate to The SS Vintage!

Check back here soon for more giveaways, I've got a few things in the works!

On a last note for now, yesterday it was rainy outside, and the kittens had the best time sitting by the glass door trying to figure out what was going on! It's so sweet to see them learning new things every day. They are so curious!

Pet Day!

Today was a beautiful day outside, and I saw several people in our neighborhood outside with their pets and families. I also have a few photos from some of my blog readers of their own pets, So I thought I'd just do a whole blog post about Pets!

There are all kinds of sweet little animals that we let into our lives, aren't there?

How about this cute little guy?!


This is George Bailey the Guinea Pig! He belongs to Jessica of The Graybird Vintage Blog.

Next we have this Naughty Little Kitten..

Climbing all over the book shelves! This creampuff belongs to Kelli G of Bug Miscellany Blog.

This next picture is too cute and funny!


Mo here seems to think he's a little person, sitting up like that. I love it! Mo is one of three lucky kitties that belong to Mikhaila of Thriftaway Blog!

This photo is of someone walking past our house today with their new puppies!

They probably live right down the block from us, looks like Twin Beagle Puppies! How stinkin' cute is that? Our kittens sure like watching them go by (from a distance!).

I'll end the post with one more photo of our cuddly little persians..


Anyone have any cute pet/animal stories to share? I always love to hear them!

Thanks for reading!

Busy Busy Summer.

I haven't posted in almost a week! Oops!

We've been having an enjoyable, busy summer! Friends in from out of town, Preparing to go out of town, New Kittens!, Purchased myself a Nikon DSLR Camera, so practicing on that, and reading the manual. What else?! Construction being done on the house, so staying out of the contractors way, and dealing with constantly moving our stuff out of the way and covering it up! Cooking, Farmers Market, Trying to stay cool, Thrifting more than Listing (a bad habit to get into..). There is not enough time in the day!

At least I have lots of coffee and some great music on my iPod. I need to get to work on the shop, Updates coming soon!

Until then... More KITTENS! (Sorry, I can't help myself!)



How's your summer going? Are you staying busy and cool?

KITTENS!

I tried to resist, and couldn't! I apologize in advance for the Kitten photo overdose, But who can resist Kittens?!

I never thought I would have one persian kitten, let alone that we would be lucky enough to share our home with a brother-sister pair of these fancy cats. I'm having a wonderful time with them and they are having fun exploring new things every day!









Do you have pets? Tell me about them! Lets see some pictures of your fuzzy (or not fuzzy) friends!
Send me your pet photos, and if I get enough, I'll do a post with photos from you!

June + Etsy! Great Success!

End of June Check in!

At the beginning of the month I blogged about my game plan to try to make June one of the Best Etsy Sales Months Ever! I worked hard on thrifting, taking photos, and listing on Etsy as many days out of the week as I could fit in! I joined Lookville, Submitted photos to the PREZZ*D Magazine, and Sponsored the MouseVoxVintage Blog for an advertising spot!

We're having some construction done on the house, I was gone for a long weekend, and we have a couple new kittens in the house. All these things have a been a huge distraction, which makes me think I can work even harder next month, and hopefully do even better with my Etsy shop than in June!

I am happy to say, that even thought June wasn't the Best month I have EVER had on Etsy, It was Very Close! June turned out to be an Excellent Month!! I worked hard, and I made just about as many sales as I have in my best months! I also have lots more in stock, tons of things listed, and I feel like I'm really organized, so I can keep expanding! I also think all the hard work I've put in this month will keep paying off in the months to come.

Here's a chart just because they are fun!



Did I mention today we brought home a pair of Persian Kittens? This is my first real kitten experience. I always had Dogs growing up, but my boyfriend always had cats. We are so excited. I am hoping to update the shop tonight, but it's hard for me to think about anything but the new little fuzz balls in the other room!

How did your June go? What's your game plan for July?
