Treasury Round Up - 11/17/13

I love the mix of fall and holiday collections this time of year! Don't forget that it's not too early to start Christmas shopping. There are so many great ideas here, especially in the gift guides. Take a couple minutes to thank these wonderful curators by checking out their collections and visiting their shops.

LeAnn (pasqueflower) included my Chicago The Bean Cloud Gate Sculpture Millennium Park Black and White Photo in her Gifts for Guys Under 35 USD treasury. We all know that it is not always easy to find gifts for guys, but LeAnn has a lot of great ideas here. Check out her Dorm Decor - 16x16 Cotton Pillow COVER - Industrial Gray and Tan.

Bonnie and Abby (AidforAbby) included my Button Bracelet - Fall Autumn Red Orange Yellow in their Bullseye - On Target for Success - Treasury List #91 treasury. Fall colors don't get much better than this! The collection is so rich. Check out Bonnie and Abby's Metal Framed Miniature Mixed Media Art - 4.5" x 5.5" - Bumblebee - Autism Awareness.

Suzanne and Tony (ExoticTreasuresJewel) included my Beaded Bracelet - Button Embellished - Red Green White Christmas Holidays in their It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like... treasury. It's fun to see these festive collections start popping up around Etsy this time of year. Check out Suzanne and Tony's Malachite and Jade Tumbled Gemstone Choker - Green Statement Beadwork Necklace.

Jean (EmeraldFlameCrafts) included my Beaded Cuff Bracelet - Dagger Fringed - Fall Autumn Red Orange Brown in her Autumn in Full treasury. I love the rich oranges and browns here. Check out Jean's Terracotta, mustard yellow, ivory, and brown handmade lampwork statement necklace with copper chain.

Edi (memoriesforlife) included my Button Dangle Earrings - Bright Colorful Multicolored Rainbow in her Stocking Stuffers Gift Guide - $20 and Under treasury. Who isn't in need of a few smaller gifts for people on their lists? Edi has a number of great stocking stuffer items in her shop as well such as her Wooden Tree Post Earring Studs.

Deb (storybeader) included my Beaded Bracelet - Silver Links Blue Yellow Pink in her Gift Ideas for Kids treasury. While you're shopping for gifts on Etsy this year, don't forget about the kids on your list. Deb had a craft show this weekend and put her shop on vacation, but you'll have to stop back again soon!

Maria (CallOfEarth) included my Beaded Bracelet - Button Embellished - Rainbow Bright Colorful Multicolored in her Colorful Thanksgiving gift guide treasury. This is such an inspired theme for a collection. Check out Maria's Crazy Mix. Festive modern Choker Style Necklace Colorful Summer fashion jewelry.

Kristin (CarriageOakCottage) included my Beaded Bracelet - Fall Autumn Gold in her balanced treasury. I love the subtlety of this collection. Check out Kristin's Rustic Christmas tree / red and gold table top tree made from branches / Gold tree with concrete star / rustic decor / woodland home decor.

Kristin also included my Beaded Bangle Bracelet - Black and Silver in her new year treasury. I would love to start the new year with any of these fantastic items.

Trina (trinasclaycreations) included my Beaded Necklace - Ceramic Charcoal Gray Donut Focal - Maroon Dark Red Brown in her A Handmade Christmas treasury. The dark reds and browns here are so inviting, which is perfect for Christmas. Check out Trina's Wedding Cake Topper, Custom Polymer Clay Irish Bear Wedding or Anniversary Keepsake.

Natasha (StalkingTheWildSnark) included my Beaded Necklace - Round Stone Amazonite Focal - Light Blue and Champagne in her Pretty Things for the Holidays treasury. Pretty things indeed! This is one of those treasuries where I could have spent a ridiculous amount of time checking out all of these shops. Check out Natasha's Sea Foam Aqua Beach Nautical Knot Celtic Earrings Freshwater Pearl.

Kathy (tapestry316) included my Beaded Cuff Bracelet - Fall Autumn Explosion Brown Orange Red in her Getting all ready for Thanksgiving treasury. It's very hard to believe that it's less than two weeks away! Somehow I am pretty close to ready for it, though. Check out Kathy's Michael - a cute little goat - altered art print of a watercolor painting - 5 x 7.

Duni (PeriDotbyDuni) included my Black and White Couple Pair of Ducks by a Pond in her Grey Beauties in November treasury. This collection is so fitting for the kind of colors that you see outside this time of year. Check out Duni's Silver Arrow Bracelet. Sideways Arrow Dainty Jewelry. 925 Sterling.

Jewels (PHandmadeCrafts) included my Veteran Affairs Cemetery VA Graves American Flags Memorial Day Photo in her T #34 - Thank you Veterans, for your service - Past and Present treasury. It means a lot to me to find this particular photo in such patriotic collections. Check out Jewel's Crocheted Rug / Pet Mat, Single and Double Crocheted, Black, Blue, and Orchid.

Friday feature: random

Welcome to the May edition of my random feature!  Enjoy!

I had to return to the mix tape theme here.

Of course I had to include some beadweaving.  And these earrings are perfect for this time of year.

Spring Mood Lime Green Bead Woven Hoop Earrings by CallOfEarth

This stamp has been calling me ever since I found it a few weeks ago.  I'm sure that someone of you already saw me post this on Facebook and Twitter.  I could make the most awesome thank you cards for my Etsy shop with this!

Button Rubber Stamp by norajane
The one that I linked here sold out, but check out this other awesome button stamp that is still available.

I can't resist cloud/rain themed items.

This cuff is too adorable.  Buttons + ocean + stripes + cuff = how can I not love this?
