I Can Sing A Rainbow - Pink and Green

This week's ESN scavenger' hunt blog is pink and green.  I couldn't get the words red and yellow, pink and green out of my head.  I kept humming a tune.red, and yellow, pink and green.  Then, it hit me. It is a song ( I Can Sing a Rainbow) which my preschool class liked to sing.
I can certainly sing a rainbow about the many items available on  ESN.  However, since the theme is pink and green I'll stay on topic.

. One of my favorites is the wall quote Girl (n) a princess dressed in pink from Walls That Talk.  Wouldn't it look adorable on a baby girl's  nursery wall?

It was interesting to notice that many of the dress pattern envelopes depict the patterns sewn in pink.  Check Bargain Express for the Lizzie McGuire simplicity sewing patten.

I couldn't resit the porcelain ballerina doll  - dressed in pink of course.  The ballerina doll is 16.5" and available at Barb's Bargains eCrater store

I know I got a little carried away with my pink selections.  Time to move on to the green.  The Jad-ite fire king chili bowl  is from Hazel's Hodgepodge.

  Here is a green vintage glass eagle decanter from Comycgyrl Collectibles.  It would look nice in any glass collection.









There are so many unique pink and green items listed on the eCrater Stores Network.  Membership is open to shoppers and eCrater store owners.   

ESN- Christmas in August

I was visiting with my daughter the other day and she told me she had started her Christmas shopping already. I remember doing that when my kids were young.  So, I thought it was pretty cool when the  theme for this week's ESN scavenger hunt blog was Christmas in August. 

I headed straight for Walls that Talk and choose the Holy Family Wall Art.  Well, maybe this would be an early Christmas gift. 

My next stop was Comycgyrl  Collectibles. She has so many beautiful items from which to choose. I know the hand painted Vintage Geisha Girl Chocolate  pot would look divine under the Christmas tree.

I always like receiving a picture frame as a Christmas gift.  The  Fishing picture frame from Hazel's Hodgepodge is sure to please the angler on your Christmas list.

These are only a few of the Christmas gift available from the eCrater Sellers Network. 

eCrater Summer Block Party

Summer Block Party is this week's theme on ESN.  Boy does that bring back memories.  Since I am a city girl, I went to many summer block parties in my day. It was such fun.  I remember the kid's activities, music and dancing and of course the food.
My eCrater Stores Network block party would have fun kid's activities, music and dancing and food.

In the kid's activity corner I would have Eccentric Thrifter use her Michaels Book of Arts and Crafts.  No doubt she would find some cool projects for the kids to make.

Next our ESN block party needs music.  I wouldn't mind bringing my CD player as long as Bargain Express will let us dance to her Swing CD. 

The last thing left is the food.  Can you imagine coordinating and planning food for a block party?  I would suggest each family bring a covered dish.  The Corning Ware casserole dish from Comycgyrl will work perfectly.

Block Parties were neighborhoods coming together to share a fun time. eCrater Stores Network is an online neighborhood where eCrater sellers come together to share ideas and offer support.  Come join us.  New members are always welcome.

Paper Hunt

The theme for this week's Ecrater Scavenger Hunt blog is paper.

The first store I visited was Comcygryl.  She has some neat items listed.  I settled on the Lord of the Rings Two Towers Photo Print Journey Continues.

This is a print of a promotional piece for the Two Towers in the Lord of the Rings Series.

Next I found a James Bond picture at  Your Whatnot Shop.  Since my hubby is a huge fan of the James Bond movies, I couldn't resist choosing the From Russia with Love photo. 

Next, I visited Bargain Express and found a Superbowl football trivia paperback book. Trivia games always add fun to any gathering.

Everyone one is invited to visit the ESN.

BBQ Time on ESN

This week's ESN scavenger's hunt blog theme is Grill Kings.  Can't you just picture your first BBQ of the season.?  I can. 

Besides preparing new recipes, I enjoy using unique BBQ serving pieces and tableware.
These salt and pepper shakers that resemble canning jars are perfect for outdoor use.  Comycgyrl has some really cool salt and pepper shakers in her store.

Since I like to serve both  hot and cold dishes at a BBQ, the  Tasty Temp 454 Food Server from Eccentric Thrifter  would be a good choice. It is Water temperature controlled. So there are no worries about dangling electrical cords.

I can visualize my friends enjoying a favorite summertime dessert in these vintage Tupperware parfait dishes from Bargain Express.  Check out her ecrater store for more vintage Tupperware.  You won't be disappointed.

Seeing all the cool grilling items from the eCrater Stores Network reminds me I'd better start planning my first BBQ of the season.

ESN - We are Family

This week's eCrater Stores Network's theme is family.  I know one thing. The eCrater Network Stores family's support definitely helped me keep my sanity during our recent store renovations.  In November, 2010, we had a heater fire in our brick and mortar store.  I was devastated.  We had lost our entire inventory to smoke and soot damage. Of course, that meant immediate shut down of our Embroidery Fashions Boutique eCrater store.   There were many times when I just wanted to give up.  However, my ESN family were always there to offer encouragement, and prayers.  I will always be grateful for the family I have on this site.
To members Wolfie, Bargain Express, Comycgyrl, and CarolinaBlueLady you have laughed with me, cried with me, and supported me. Thank you for being family.
