SouthWest


Chino Valley Gypsy Cowgirl Keepsake Wallet Clutch

wilderness is not a luxury 
but a necessity of the human spirit

repurposed black leather so incredibly soft ~ like butter

add a bit of southwest beauty {turquoise & silver} 
 embellished with fabulous leather fringe

... m.m.m.m.m delicious!









***
so this is just a little conversation piece
for those associated with Etsy
....  what is your view of the new improvements?

has it benefited you?

do you have more sells?

what do you feel about treasuries and now the lack of them?

is anyone as frustrated as I am?

don't get me wrong.. I love Etsy and have actually had my shop since 2009
I've seen a lot of changes over the years
some good
some not so good


however I have always loved the artistic indie spirit about Etsy... 
creative people 
inspiring shops
there was a really good vibe 
to the whole site...

something has changed
I can't put my finger on it.
It has a more 
commercialist feel about it
and frankly ...
what attracted me to Etsy in 2009
was it did not have that 
polished commercial feel

anywho
those are my 2 cents

any other comments?

Desert Rain



clouds come floating into my life
no longer to carry rain or usher storm
but to add color to my sunset sky 

♦.. Rabindranath Tagore



I spied this gorgeous vintage woven wool textile 
at a second hand shop .. 
it sat lonely .. crumpled in the bin. 
The wonderful Earthy tones caught my heart 
.. warm sand, rich brown, rustic terra cotta and sage ... 
I needed to save it!! 

enjoy!

she's here!!








as soon as the fog lifted 




and the sun came shining though




I think it is really starting to happen...




I believe spring has finally come!!


  and isn't it glorious!!!!

new in the little ZiBagz shop


each of us has fire in our hearts for something
find it and keep it lit!

night poured over the desert.
it came suddenly .. in purple
in the clear air .. the stars drilled down out of the sky
