Let them Eat...CAKE!

Today at work i thought i would try to come up with some weekly topics that would make it more fun for me to write about. So while wishing i was at home i thought of these topics

SOTW ( Already happening )
Bargain Sundays- I find good shops with great deals and let you know about them
Treasury Tuesday- I get some great treasury i find of different things and post them
Random Thursdays- Could be a mix of different things coming at you!


I think thats a good start. The voting for the current SOTW is going strong. Be sure to vote for your fav. shop! You can vote for more than one shop also if you cannot chose!

A lot of people do not know that i own 2 different businesses ( Funkey junk and Sinfully Sweet by FJD ) One is on my etsy the other is my Cake shop. One day i decided that i could make them and i was going to.... So for this post im going to share with you a little bit of my cakes!


This weekend I will be doing a " Pizza cake" Photos for sure to come tomorrow night!

:) Thats it for now! Have a great weekend!

I am also holding a new giveaway contest every month on my fanpage so be sure to stop in and see what is going on!... This month is all about CLUE!

Now that i have let you all know about that! I would like to announce that i am going to start doing SOTW again. The first poll of this month should be up later tonight after i find some more willing contestants to play.

Remember that if you want to be in one of the polls be sure to watch for the POLL post asking you for your submissions.

If you dont know what SOTW is here is your answer. It stands for Shop Of The Week This is where i find some fantastic shops on etsy put them in a poll and have my blog visitors vote for them as well as their fans vote for them . Who ever wins the poll will get a post and a interview dedicated to them about there work and what ever else they feel should be known about them and their shop.

SOTW is a great way to get some great exposure for your shop and get some good networking in :)

Well that is it untill next time :)

Have a great night everyone!

ok ok... so really... this time... im back!

Like i said.... Im really back this time. I have had a extremely busy last two months... I cannot even begin to tell you what i have been doing haha. I can say it involved a lot of day job and a lot of school and a lot of different living arrangements. Now i feel like life can and will settle down ... or at least for the time being. Any who I have made a tone of new things since i last blogged to see them just head on over to www.funkeyjunk.etsy.com and give it a look see. However I will share with you now two things i made last night.

This first one is a Mirror and vase set. A great accent to your home.

The next one is a gorgeous vase who got its birth from the colors of my friends wedding. I think the 3 colors are very lovely to look at!







Well I Would like to announce some great news for Funk(E)y Junk Design's . We are expanding our talents to other things such as Cakes, baked goods, as well as gift sets and edible arrangements. We will still be doing the great home decor and jewelry and other things we do, we just feel its a great time to expand. I also say " WE" because if you know me in person you know i have added a person to the team. My Mother in law is now a part of FJD as well as some collaborations to be announced soon.

We are also doing a craft festival in September on the 25th in Lebanon Ohio. This is called the Apple festive Google it and find their site and see us there!


Thats all for Now.... I promise not to go running away again like last time!

Love you all!
Jess

I will be doing a monthly Magazine that will have all the shops of the week in it along with different things going on in the world of crafts and designs. I will be adding things such as craft fairs around the world and anything that you as a reader feel would be a great read.

I also would love to have a spot in it for shop sales. So if your having a sale next month and you want your sale to be featured.... send me a message at Fj_designs@hotmail.com and i will work you in!

I also plan on having how to's on different things as well!

Along with this i am (Really this time) going to start up my Birthday club..... SO IF YOU WANT FREE STUFF OR DISCOUNTS ON YOUR BIRTHDAY..... SEND ME A E-MAIL!!! :)

I will restart the SOTW Tomorrow at least the poll part and hope to have the last interview here soon!


OK now that the new news is up and readable lets move on to my new items!
These are the first two items in my Refurbished Home Goods line. I plan on making many more things like these so keep an eye out! I have a coat rack that is soon to be put up tonight!

I also have in the works hanging Orbs.
