I have long admired the beautiful aesthetic of blogger Torie Jayne so I was excited when she added my blog to her blog roll and am still beyond-thrilled that she asked if I would contribute to her first book, How to Show & Sell Your Crafts. To find my name among her assembled crafty-blogger rockstar team is ... searching for words ... really validating.
As followers of Torie's blog would expect, this book is beautiful and useful; the kind of book I remember searching for years ago and never quite found. In addition to being a visual swoonfest, it truly is a practical handbook for anyone interested in not only showing and selling but organizing and creating.

The photos of the Girlie Office and me were taken by my friend, the lovely and talented photographer Marisa Bettencourt, who also photographed my author pics for both of my books.

I will Have to check out her Book! Thanks for sharing~
Thank you lovely for being part of my book, you are a creative inspiration to me and I am so glad you and your wonderful creativity are in my first book, x
The Spring Fair sounds heavenly...wish I could just climb into my George Jetsonmoble and fly over. Visiting London is on my bucket list.
I must look for Torie's book...she has a love of those colors we drool over. I was just pouring over your Tinkered Treasures book the other day looking for a gift idea for a friend. Just looking at the pictures in that book is so cheery on a grey day.
I hope you had a chance to see the afghan Twyla, of Two Crazy Crafters, made for me. Totally Cath inspired.
Hope it warms up soon...I'm so tired of winter.

Sounds wonderful but I wouldn't be able to attend:) That book looks awesome! Have a blessed day sweet Elyse, HUGS!
Yay!! How exciting, Elyse, you are so lovely and creative, that it doesn't surprise me at all that you are invited to be part of other publications. Great giveaway, and Torie Jayne's book looks fantastic. xoxo Lidy http://FrenchGardenHouse.com/blog
