Thank You to All Veterans and Active Duty Military

Thank you to all of those who have served, are serving, or will serve in the United States Military. It's because of you that we are able to live freely as we do.

Check out the documentary about a group of "Troop Greeters" from Maine, airing for the first time for a national audience on PBS this Veteran's Day. You can find out more information about it at http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091110/ap_en_ot/us_veterans_day_troop_greeters.

Have you thanked the military, lately?

OMG - it's SNOWING!

Aww yes, it's inevitably that time of year, where the little white stuff can make an appearance. Although, it's still a bit warm where the snow is not sticking, it's still coming down, at a pretty good clip. So much for 30% chance of snow, on the interior of Maine - can't you get it right Charlie Lopresti?

100 hearts and we will ALL be winners!

Yup, I'm back and ready to pus the promotion as much as I can!

To recap, help me reach 100 hearts, and 3 winners will be awarded awesome prizes! Yay GIVEAWAYS!

So far, Camelot's Treasures is at 96 hearts and holding...so close, only 4 more hearts to go!

Another Halloween Come and Gone...

This Halloween Theron and Mallory were Scooby Doo and Daphne - yes I can still get them to match theme-wise, but how much longer I'm not sure! They came home with LOADS of candy, we are set for the next year, and suprising some really good stuff too. I'm so glad that little old ladies have FINALLY realized that NO ONE likes that orange and black taffy candy...

But wait, what's that I hear in the background? It faintly sounds a bit like jingling bells...oh jeeze...

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!

Help support the Etsy Maine Team Store

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!
