It was a beautiful day here in southwestern Ontario yesterday. Chilly in the early morning but then was just perfect. Around 70F with sun.

I had a busy day. Caught up on some housework, did laundry, took pictures of my baby quilts and edited them. Hopefully tomorrow I can get them listed. Between the chores, hubby and I did some deliveries for a friend who owns a delivery business. So by the end of the day and getting our dinner just after 8pm, which is late for us, I just took some time to relax.

So many beautiful sites in nature today. Some of the leaves are turning and the golden rod is out in all its glory, though it does cause allergies. Still, the pastures and forests are beginning to put on their autumn gowns. Fall is a beautiful time of the year.

QUOTE of the DAY:

"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous."

Terrific day in North Idaho today -- one of those perfect weather days between summer and fall -tomorrow is supposed to be the same- an all-and-all excellent weekend :-)

Good morning Mary - sounds like you have gorgeous weather at the moment. Hope you have a super day!!

Hi Jim - Glad to hear you have great weather too, hope you have a lovely weekend.

Beautiful day here in Brisbane, light and breezy and full of sunshine - summer is definitely on the way.

Hi everyone! I am new to the team...thanks for having me! I make cards and albums and love what I do! I hope to be able to share what I have learned the past 3 years here on Etsy in the hopes it will help others succeed too. If I can share a piece of advice now, it would be to add your shop name as a tag to every new item you list. I believe that buyers will forget the title of your listing, but they tend to remember your shop name. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Good morning. Wish you a happy Sunday !

[CinderellaButtons]

A sunday morning and I'm posting on Etsy, that must say something! I'm new to the team although I have already taken part in some threads and found it all very interesting. I have already picked up some great tips, so well done team AAA.

[Former_Member]

Good morning everyone. I am brand new to the team. Looking forward to working with everyone and to also get to know everyone. Going to enjoy are last day of nice summer weather. After today we are having rain for about 4 days.

Have a lovely morning in the meantime. :)

Linda,

My Sunday mornings are usually spent on Etsy. :P

[Former_Member]

Now you have 2 new Linda's posting this morning. (Good Morning Linda.) My vintage shop is 4 months old and I am in Charlotte, NC. I thought it best to join a new team with only a few members first; so glad to find out I was wwrong. This is more what I was looking for!

Thank you so much for having me! Happy Sunday.

[naturepoet]

Good morning, everyone and welcome to the new people on the team.

Chris, my deepest condolence on your aunt's passing. I'm glad you're feeling a little better.

Hello, everyone! Still waking up. Coffee time. The light is my computer screen. Quiet enough to hear the clock tick and my aquarium bubbling. I hope I'm not catching a cold. Sun, come up. Day, begin.

[aimvinylsigns]

[BaysideWireDesigns]

Good morning! It's a damp Sunday morning here in northern NB, Canada. We're already been heating our house... The leaves are slowly changing color. Can't wait to see them in all their glory in their vibrant oranges, reds and yellows.

Lots to do today. Have a wonderful day everyone! :)

Hear old dog's nails clicking on hard wood floor. His old-dog routine begins anew, too. Good old boy. Our "best" boy. Our only boy.

[Former_Member]

[homecraftframing]

Welcome Jodi, Linda and Rochelle. Good morning to eveyone, except Elizabeth who gets a Good Night! The day is starting out beautiful and going to be in the low 70s and this is just perfect for me. I could have this all year long.

Had a productive day yesterday and hope to do the same today. I have to finish up on a couple of orders and get them packed up to ship tomorrow. Then we are riding up to Fairfield, Ohio to go to Jungle Jim's International Market tomorrow and do a fun grocery shop.

I hope everyone has a lovely day and I will stop in later to fave your items.

[Former_Member]

Hello everyone. I'm new to the team too. I've participated in the ABC listings thread and the featured shop of the day so far. I love how simple the games are to follow. I tried another team's game before and couldn't figure out how to play it, lol.
I make mostly dollhouse miniatures. I love country cabin decor and make most of my minis in that style. I also dabble in any craft that interests me, from sewing, crochet, pottery, painting, to sometimes just creating something from unusual supplies. I'm looking forward to being a part of this team:)

[CozyHandcraftsByCat]

Good morning, everyone! I have another busy day planned and am having my second and last cup of coffee before getting started. I hope everyone has a wonderful day or evening, depending on where you are!

We are expecting rain today and for the next week so I'm a bit worried about being able to photograph new items, as I normally take my pics outdoors. I don't have anything fancy for my listings photography so I may have to come up with a plan B! Perhaps I should buy some of those light bulbs that provide "natural" lighting? I always have difficulty with accurate color when I photograph indoors. Any pointers would be appreciated. :-)

Karen, by the way, those Halloween zombies made out of pasta? Too Cute!

Good Morning everyone! and thank you for the invite to join the group! It took me a little time to find this.........navigating the dashboard had me reading articles, this morning I scrolled down the page and found the invites!

I am Karen from Fall River MA..........today the weather here is just beautiful! I am taking my 93 yr old Dad with my sister down to the waterfront park we have in this city and have a picnic lunch and then down to the dungeon for ceramic pouring and than back to the couch for stocking knitting! the holidays have begun!
I maintain two shops here on E.....this one is my supply shop and the other is my Kraftylady20 shop where I sell finished goods..........see you all later! just wanted to stop by and say Hi!

[designbcb]

good morning, mates!

thank you for the invite to join the team and I must say I do enjoy what i've seen and read so far.

wanted to drop by before heading off to church this morning and coming back ad getting to work. we had a bit of a heat wave in chicago earlier this week but that has given way to fall weather. Being someone who sells knits, fall weather is great for me.

I will be knitting a hat while watching the Bears game or if it isn't on when I come back, I am going to watch The Avengers (again) on Netflix.

Thank you again for the invite and hope to talk to all again very soon!

Hello everyone!
*waving from Belgium!*
Just put a few new items in the shop, got a ton that still needs to be photographed, so I'm hoping for a bit of good light.

I've also noticed that I get traffic from people searching my shop name, so if I have a tag left over, I add my shop name. It's a good tip!

[DoorCountyVintage]

Hello all the new and returning members! Loving all the chatter I hope everyones day will be a good one!
