I'm starting a new incentive: Whoever is the first person who buys a coffee cozie from my online etsy shop gets a free $5 gift card to McDonalds . The idea is for you(the buyer) to go to McDonalds and buy a(an) (iced) coffee drink and use the cozie you just bought, take a picture and send it to me via email. it's that simple.   buy a cozie. get 5 bucks. take a picture As of now I only have 2 cozie items on etsy: 1 single for $4.50 and a 4 pack for $15. There are free shipping on the both of these. I have 3 other cozies that Im going to post within (hopefully) the next 48 hours and I also have about 20 that are ready to be made. You can also click the "request custom item" link on the left hand sidebar, message me to reserve a cozie and ill post the reserved cozie so then you can purchase it. I know people are buying my cozies because I sold a ton last summer at farmers markets and I just got my consignment check from the store here in Chapel Hill, but I would r...

Thanks to everyone who has purchases coffee cozies in Chapel Hill! Since I've consigned, 6 items have sold!!! I was very happy when I went to do inventory and dropped off some more goodies! Also I know 1 of the 2 handbags that I've made and brought over there have sold. The person who was working when I came in wasn't sure if the other one sold also, but we'll find out when they mail me my check! Here's how you can find my goodies in Chapel Hill: Taking the bus: V and NS routes go to Southern Village. Major stops to get the bus are at the Hospital and at Frat. Court on S. Columbia(you want the buses to go towards the Carolina Inn) Driving: see previous post with map graphic( Sorry, I don't really know important road names, but you go over the James Taylor bridge.) I dropped off some little triangular "quilted" keychains, a clutch, a set of pillowcases, an electronic case that will fit an iPod/iphone, 2 bags with 2 tissue holders in them and...

Groton Olde Home Days was interesting to say the least. I met a lot of people who were from out of town or this was their first olde home days. There was also a couple that I got to talking to about Disney because I was wearing my Disney Volunteer shirt. My Table on Main Street 50 Coffee Cozies "G" is for Groton ( and now you have ""C" is for cookie" stuck in your head now, dont you?). Sport themed cozies covering football, baseball, and soccer As of today, Tuesday August 23rd, The Early Settler on Main Street in Groton, will be selling my items again. So if you didn't get a chance to visit my table, you can go and see my items there. I have also added a new feature. I created a punch card that allows you to receive a free cozie or an item of equal or lesser value($4.50) free when you buy 8 or more cozies. There is also a special coupon on the back.  and if you were wondering what the picture was of ...

thought I would give you all a peak at all the cozies I am making this week for Groton Olde Home Days seriously though, there are more. so be prepared.
