Whassuppwitdat???

My Etsy shop has EXPLODED today... And I'm at a complete loss as to why?!?

Sure, the Tsunami Relief Pebble is in a few Etsy treasuries, but none of them are even on page 10, let alone the front page, and this blog has all of FOUR followers.

Huh.

If anyone has any clues or has linked to me somewhere, PLEASE fill me in!

Curiosity killed the cat, you know.

Over 780 item views and counting....

***CORRECTION! 884 views and counting!

Oh-Em-Gee.

Signature Pebble Custom Orders being taken for Tsunami Relief...

I am not immune to the madness that has befallen Japan in the past week.... I'm finding it difficult to tear my eyes away from video feeds of absolute devastation and suffering.

So I've decided to offer custom-color Curious Pebbles in my Etsy Shop with 50% of the profits to be donated to The Red Cross.  Please see the item in my Etsy Shop for more details.




You Choose the Color... I Choose the Pebble... The Red Cross Gets $10.00...



The One for Miss Milla

I had intended to make some new Curious Pebbles this morning for my Etsy Shop, but as I was making this one, it was commandeered by my little girl.  She made me write her name on the back, and everything.  It came out so nice, though, that I thought I'd share.  Enjoy!

Westfield Mall, Oceanside, California



After a very full day yesterday-- The Wild Animal Park with a long lost friend and her son, followed by a lovely dinner and conversation at my house-- today was sort of just drifting along with no real plans on the horizon.  So, when little girl mentioned that a trip to the Disney Store would be "a very good idea", we decided that, in fact, it WAS a good idea.  I grabbed my camera and three Curious Pebbles and got to work.  Figured out in a hurry that the mall is a pretty crowded place to be inconspicuous....

 

This is the reason the rest of my pics are a bit out of focus... I was trying to emulate a very slow shutter speed on my digital camera to get a nice swirl effect on the Merry-Go Round.  Didn't exactly work, and then I forgot to switch it back for the next couple of pics.  Ooops-a-Daisy. Oh well.  I promise to do better next time!

  

The trio as we left the house... ready for Pebbling!



An orange Spider-web Pebble, left on a bench near the Merry-Go Round, and which disappeared as I was trying to get all artsy with Merry-go Round pics.  Sign it in if you've found it!



See?  Left him right... here....



A blurry shot of a pretty pink one...



Left on a wall just outside of Macy's (second floor).  Did you find it?





A yellow sunflower...



Placed on the shoe-cubby at the kid playland...

 

Someone moved it once while we were there, but I put it back....


SO!  If YOU have found a Curious Pebble at the Westfield Mall in Oceanside, won't you please sign the guestbook and tell me what you thought? 



Etsy Store is Open!

I'm so excited... I've had an etsy store for a looong time, haven't had anything in it for just about as long (used to sell my pottery, but shipping was a p.a.i.n.).

So today, I finally got some Curious Pebbles all photographed and looking pretty. They are waiting...

So, if you can't find a Curious Pebble on the beach, or you otherwise simply must have one of your very own, check my sidebar. There's a link just for you, Flower.

See you there.

Oh! Did I mention that 10 minutes after I posted my items, one of them was already chosen for a treasury, and I don't even know the person who curated it?

That rocks. It really, really does.
