Now if you'll excuse me, I'll just be over here framing this magazine..

Have you seen what's new?

Have you stopped in the Etsy shop to see what's new yet?  I've added some more jewelry, a nursery print, and more options for our super-popular Hand-Etched Maple Snowflake Ornament.  

Our set of three ornaments is doing really well and I've been busy thinking of more ideas for ornaments for you all!  

New Etsy items - and a coupon code!

Today I've put a few more items up in my Etsy shop and will be adding some more.  Please check them out and let me know what you think!  
I've also added a coupon code to get 10% off orders over $25, just use this code:  10PERCENTOFF25

Thanks so much!  

Craft Fair this weekend!

This Saturday we'll be at the LRGH Craft fair with the awesome Treacy Homemade, and we'll also have a few items for sale from The Little Snowflake!  Hope to see you there!  

Pinch me, I must be dreaming.

Okay, so I'm really afraid to go into detail because I don't want to jinx anything but I have some VERY exciting news about this little Instagram photo!  

...all will be revealed in November :)  

Finding my niche...

My Etsy shop and this blog are still very much a work in progress - I have all kinds of ideas on products I want to make, things I want to write about.  I often wonder if this blog is trying to be too many things at once... 

Just about all of the most popular blogs out there (including some of my personal favorites) share so much about the author's daily life, their families, their homes, the whole nine yards.  Their reader gets to know them personally, gets invested in what's going on, and it keeps them engaged.  But that's just not me - I don't feel comfortable posting detailed photos of our home and life publicly.  I try to walk that line, but I know staying on my side of this fence will alienate much of my audience. 

I know if I want a shot at a successful following on the blog and Etsy storefront I need to find my niche and stick with it, but I'm not there yet.  I'm still testing the waters on what kinds of things I truly enjoy making and writing about, and until I find my focus you all get to enjoy a little bit of everything ;)  

Thanks again for reading and please feel free to leave some feedback - I'd love to hear your thoughts!  

Official Name Change - Birch Landing Home

As many of you probably know, the original name of this little venture was "Birch Landing."  Unfortunately when I looked to purchase a domain name I realized it had already been taken by an apartment building.  I knew I wanted the website to be about home projects and crafts and expand my Etsy shop to also include things for the home which is why I decided to name the blog "Birch Landing Home."  

After a lot of debate, I decided to officially change the name of my Etsy shop and Facebook page as well... as much as I love the simplicity of the name "Birch Landing" I thought it would be best for everything to match, therefore the recent updates and name changes.  

In honor of the new name, I'm planning on having a giveaway within the next two weeks!  Stay tuned for more on this later..

Etsy shop almost there...

Putting the finishing touches on here and on our Etsy store.  As I'm sure many of you know, it takes a lot of work to get these things established - I'm so excited to finally announce this blog and the Etsy store tomorrow!
