Chip In for Sarah - karoger.etsy.com

I'm posting this Chip-In to help Sarah (karoger.etsy.com) and her family with recent expenses for her and her family to travel to Tampa, Fl for a Heart Evaluation that she is undergoing now. She went into the hospital December 4th in Jacksonville, Fl and was transferred to Tampa on December 18th. I had already planned a trip here and came early to help support her during this time. All the chip-in money will go directly to her pay pal account and will help w/ hotel and travel costs for her family. (I am not looking to reimburse myself for my costs, only give help to her family)

To be with their daughter, Sarah's mother has taken a leave of absence from her job and her father is here working on his laptop. Anything will help even if it is small. Its hard to say how long she will be in the hospital but that all depends on how the evaluation goes these next few days. Thanks I will update with more information soon.

I will be posting on twitter and if you can please repost.

One Year Etsy Anniversary

Today is my One Year Anniversary of selling on Etsy! Selling on Etsy started out really slow for me but slowly I'm getting more and more business. I really think it is growing a bit and I know the traffic is up on the site. Anyhow, hope to double or triple my business this year so come stop by sometime.

Etsy Front Page

I made the etsy front page for the first time on March 26th, 2009! I had no clue till someone messaged me about it. I did not sell anything but got lots of new shop hearts and a few new item hearts. Anyways, it has been a while since I posted so I figured I would share my 15 seconds of fame on etsy.

Hand Painted Signs

Beer & Wine Hand Painted SignAbsolutely No Smoking Sign

Soap Sign

Laundry Sign

Here are some more pics of my recent hand painted signs I have been working on. I really like the old look of this process. Beer & Wine Sign, No Smoking Sign, Soap Sign and Laundry Sign.

These signs are hand painted on wood with a crackle effect to create the illusion of an old weathered looking sign.

To Protect theAntique white Crackle Effect, the top of the sign is coated with a Satin Clear Oil Varnish.

If its no longer available it must be sold. Please contact me about custom requests.
