Rehashing It Over

Have you heard of Rehash? It's a nifty new clothes swapping web site.
Rehashing is a way for you to trade your 'bought that but never wore it', 'wore it once or twice' or 'loved it once but no more' clothing and accessories. You can join groups, socialize, and get fashion as well as green living advice.
It's still fairly new but growing daily with trading posts and membership.

I found this outfit:

Striped Top, Tiffany Eternal Circle
Red Slingback Flats, White Pencil Skirt

St. Patrick's Day Online Scavanger Hunt

Get ready to celebrate the green - eco green that is.

Team Eco Etsy is hosting an online Scavenger Hunt for St. Patrick's Day tomorrow, Sunday March 16. This is your opportunity to win some really great prizes donated by sellers who are members of this eco conscious team.

Playing is easy, and you can find all of the rules on the Eco Etsy Team blog. The hunt starts at 12pm EST and ends at 12am EST March 16th or until all the prizes are spoken for.

**The details and rules of the hunt will not be posted on the blog until this evening, March 15.**

May the luck of the Irish be with you!!

Green Pop

Poppytalk handmade is back this month with a green themed market. Of course Reiter8 has a table! I'll be back to showcase favorites - so many to choose from! For now it's off to the hospital for my daughters knee surgery - wish us luck!

O U - Oh, Yeah!

One last quick thing...Check out the lovely prints and painitings from OUOU (oh you, oh you). Laurie is as sweet as her drawings.

As I approached receiving my 500th heart on Etsy I was thinking that it would be nice to send a little something to that person and Laurie turned out to be that person. She grew up on the cape (that's where we used to vacation and where I learned to sail) and she is as enthusiastic as she is talented.

She has some cute bunny tags in her shop - great for those easter gifts or as a note card or place card. Her blog is a good read a peek into her process.

Wahoo, O U!

Super!

Supermarket, that is!
Reiter8 is finally up and running on Supermarket, a curated collection of 'awesome design products'. I'm excited to be a part of such a creative group. Check it out..
