Seadbeady's Finds on Etsy - 7

Hi There.....Do you like summer?

I do..... it's my favorite season 😃

That might have something to do with the fact that my horoscope is Leo. Just like the Lion, I like to kick back and relax in the sun. Although next week will probably be too much cause there is a heatwave coming to Belgium and temperatures are gradually going to rise to about 37 degrees.

But that will be the perfect weather for some flip-flops don't you agree 😅

I was actually wondering where the name flip-flops came from.
Can't have that.....now can we. So I did some searching on the internet and this is what I found.

Their name comes from the sound these sandals make when they slap between the sole of our foot and the floor. Seems this type of sandals was already found with the Ancient Egyptians in 4000BC. The oldest pair found on display is at the British Museum.

Now that we got that covered let me show you the lovely flip-flops I found in some Etsy shops today 😊

Introducing you to - Splendid jewellery

Hi There.....Do you like jewellery?

Who doesn't.....right 😎

Did you know that the earliest known piece of jewellery was actually created by the Neanderthal? They made perforated beads from small sea shells.

So today I want to introduce you to Splendid Jewellery

Pooja Goradia, the shop owner, lives in Sydney, Australia. She started the store with the aim to deliver high-quality jewellery to customers at the lowest possible price.

Sounds great.....Don't it 😃

Her philosophy is that all men and women deserve to feel attractive, and there's no better way to enhance your appearance than with an impactful piece of jewellery crafted to complement your features.

Trust is something that is very important to Pooja. Buying jewellery online exposes you to all sorts of scams that will leave you wanting more from your purchase and with no resource to recoup your lost expenses. That is why she decided to sell her jewellery with a Risk-Free policy. Each item from her shop comes with a warranty so you can get your money back should you find a manufacturing defect.

That is quite something if you ask me.....I haven't seen many shops that have this kind of Risk-Free policy 😮

The shop's collection includes a wide variety of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, charms and so much more. And if you like you can ask for something custom made especially for you.

And on top of that, they ship their jewelry worldwide without additional costs.

So I felt super lucky when they gifted me a ring in exchange for a blog post and shout out on my Instagram account.

Let me show you this beauty 😍

Summer Sale at BeadworkSeadbeady and ArtSeadbeady

Hi There.....Can I ask you a stupid question?

I already know the answer.....Do you like sales?

Off course you do.....who doesn't 😀

Well yes, there may be a few that don't but let's not think of them today cause I am having sales in both my shops on Etsy.

Most of you might not even know I have two shops because I haven't done much artwork lately but they are BeadworkSeadbeady and ArtSeadbeady.

The biggest problem with my Artshop is that I am a seedbeadaholic. And there is no such thing as a seedbeadaholics anonymous 😜

Although I am certain that if it would exist I would not be going cause I am pretty much in denial haha. I enjoy beading so much that I make too much stuff.....so I have to sell some and that way I can pay for new beads.

Let me show you some of the most recent things I added to my BeadworkSeadbeady shop 😊

Introducing you to - Boyfriendstudios

Hi There.....What are you doing this weekend?

It's gonna be a sunny day here so we are planning to go to the store and having drinks later 😊

Summer is coming pretty soon now so are you planning to go on a Holiday? Maybe I can tempt you in buying some cards first to send to your loved ones 😋

That is why I wanted to introduce you this time to Boyfriendstudios

Tammy, the shop-owner, makes unique handmade greeting cards. She got started creating when her girls were young. She would sew clothes for them and make scrapbooks to commemorate her girls' childhood.

When her oldest daughter started college her creative outlet morphed into card making. She would put together special care packages and create a pretty card to put on top to brighten her daughter's day. Her girls' college careers overlapped significantly, so she ended up making twice as many care packages and pretty cards.

That's so sweet.....don't you think so too 😚

She gets inspired by paper and card stock because the possibilities are endless. The assortment of colors, patterns, and embellishments that are available make every card she makes a unique and special experience.

Her workspace is an entire room of years of stored fabric, paper, ribbon, glue, and other crafting materials. She just loves it and can spend hours sometimes in her room just creating until her heart's content.

I can relate to that.....my beads are a lot smaller but I can fill a whole closet with them 😏

But that's not all.....she also sells a line of pie-themed cards at Sweet Revolution Bake Shop in Lafayette in Indiana. So don't forget to pay her a visit when you are in the neighborhood.

Ah well did I make you curious enough to go and see some of the collection of cards she sells 😁

Seadbeady's Finds on Etsy - 6

Hi There.....Did you miss me last week??

I thought I'd take a week off.....sometimes life decides that you do other things than blogging 😃

So I was planning to make my blog yesterday but then again life got in the way.....we went to the Antwerp Zoo.....me, my husband, my daughter, my son in law and my granddaughter. I really enjoyed it very much and so did my granddaughter 😀

Have you ever been there? It is really worth a visit you know.....but if you go it is best to go there by train because by car is very stressful.

Since I did see a few people wearing headwear, I got inspired to do a blog about it 😄

What about you.....do you wear hats sometimes? I do wear caps sometimes to protect myself from the sun in the summertime. So I did some browsing on Etsy to find some lovely caps for you 😘
