Another Etsy Maine Team Promotion

Because we were in the spirit of giving, the Etsy Maine Team will be donating 15% of all sales from participating seller's shops from 11/13 to 11/19 to Preble Street, a local homeless shelter.

Preble Street is a Maine organization which provides accessible barrier-free services to empower people experiencing problems with homelessness, housing, hunger, and poverty; and advocates for solutions to these problems. Watch their PSA here: http://www.preblestreet.org/home_for_good_video1.php

Help keep Maine women, men, children, and teens warm and empowered this winter!

A complete list of participating sellers will be posted on our blog, closer to the beginning of the promotion -- http://etsymaineteam.blogspot.com/

Camelot's Treasures and Mallory Alisabeth are proud to be a part of this promotion and this wonderful charitable team!

The way handmade should be!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween is my ALL-TIME favorite Holiday and this year is no different from the rest! Like most folks, the idea of being able to be whoever you want to be on one night, appeals very much to me. Maybe it's because I always wanted to be an actress - up until the day I graduated High School and realized that maybe that choice would not pay the bills. Maybe it's because Autumn is my favorite season, and the colors, the temperature, and the feel just rejuvenates me and gets me prepared for the long holiday season to come. Or maybe it's just because I'm a child at heart, and any chance that I can use my imagination to con people out sweets is the best idea EVER! But no matter the reason, Halloween is here (finally) and I'm ready for it!

This year, I decided to enter one of my carved pumpkins into a contest. I figured that I didn't have a chance, because by NO means am I an artist. HOWEVER, suprisingly, I took home the prize - a $25 gift card to Hannaford (a local grocery store chain). YAY for winning!


Anyway, enough of my ramblings...let the festivities begin! Happy Halloween!

New Listings...Getting ready for the Holidays!

So the blog hasn't been getting much attention, with the craziness of our lives and then the upcoming Holiday Season, something always has to give. HOWEVER Mallory and I have been constantly working on stocking up our stores, and we are very excited about what we have to offer!

Some new things in Mallory's shop are:

Red and Silver Swirl Earrings

Black Tie Affair Earrings

Some new things in Camelot's Treasures are:


Black Floral Jumper

Purple Leopard Hoodie

Be sure to check back often for cool promotions and giveways, and of course NEW stuff!

Promo UPDATE

Only 5 more hearts to go until 3 winners are chosen!

I'll be promoting lightly this week, because of the craziness that Halloween is bringing, but next week I'll jump right back on the ball...unless I hit 100 hearts before then.

Thanks for all your support!

Promo - UPDATE TIME!

So we are getting closer....we only have 10 more hearts to go before the BIG drawing!

Hurry pass the word around, share the love and GOOD LUCK!

Mallory got her first Blog Feature!

The first few days of October, Etsy Maine Team sponsored a Halloween Scavenger Hunt, where "hunters" had to search through several Maine Team Shops for a cute little ghost. Winners of this hunt recieved a special prize from one of the shops that participated in the hunt. SOOOO the winner for for Mallory Alisabeth was cheekytreasures of www.cheekytreasures.etsy.com! And because she was SOOOO grateful for her wonderful prize (a halloween wallet and keychain) she decided to write a feature on her blog about Mallory's shop.
