Here's a sampling of my favorites...
I am SO IN LOVE with these vintage snack plates. I have a few different plates listed, but this design is my favorite:
The aqua Ball jars with zinc lids are the most beautiful color I've ever seen:
I couldn't resist this green compote:
And my favorite item, my little "Treat" jars. I made a set of these last year and thought I would see if any of any of you wanted them too:
If you like them, I'll make more! I have a few other items to list and a few items I'm reworking to list soon. Also, I am doing flat rate shipping for these items, at least to start. If I find the item costs way less or way more to ship, I will adjust the shipping cost and will contact the buyer personally. I hope you bear with me. I don't want either of us to get screwed on shipping. :) (Etsy does not figure shipping based on location, it's just a flat rate.)
OH YEAH, and I am determined to make sure nothing in the shop costs more than $20 (before shipping). I will do my best to stick to that.

Could I be first or second to offer up my congratulations? I can't wait to check it out! Congrats!!!!
Congratulations! I can't wait to go check out your shop! Cause you always show such CAUUUUTE stuff!!
I'm on my way to check it out.... :)
How fun! Love it all. I actually have those same rectangle glass plates and the oval ones. I love using them for parties!
By the way, in answer to your question about vintage and etsy, I'm pretty sure your items have to be vintage or handmade. It says on the do's & don'ts and I think it says how many years old they need to be. I can't remember now though.
good luck!
Congrats, I can't wait to hop on over and visit your etsy store. I love how nothing will be over $20. What a great idea!!
Congrats on your Etsy shop! You have some way cute stuff. :-)
Congrats! I love those little treat jars.
Congrats on the shop, girl! I'm off to check it out! :)
congratulations!!
It looks great...good job!
Congrats TDC!! Best of Luck!!
BTW - I have about 2 of those plates and glasses... my mother-in-law that they were the perfect gift for me. Unfortunately, they've been in the china cabinet for way too long!
So awesome! Congrats!!
Hurray for you!!! I hope it takes off for you. :) I really like your TREAT jars. :)
Love the snack plates, especially the rectangular ones in your Etsy shop. Would shipping to Canada be a ridiculous price? I have never ordered off of Etsy for fear of shipping prices. Any Canadians out there that have experience with shipping and duty from Etsy retailers?
Way to go on your Etsy shop! I'm sure it and you will be a HUGE success! ;o)
Congrats & good luck!
Etsy states that vintage must be at least 20 years old (the items do NOT hand to be handmade). If the item is both handmade AND vintage, be sure to list it that way as it usually crates more of a demand.
If the item is handmade it can be sold no matter how old it is.
Can't wait to take a look at your shop. I know there is a set of those exact same oval plates at my mom's house somewhere! They were my grandmother's and I remember her using them at parties. Love the green compote too.
Congrats on your new Etsy shop! I love the TREAT jars! I am heading over to check it out now!
I just bought that exact pear votive holder! Of course not at a full-price retail shop, but it's the exact same one! Unfortunately, I broke the leaves when I when I tried to adjust them.
Good luck with your shop!
Good for you! I'm going to open an Etsy store in November and I'm looking forward to the process. The aqua Ball jars are my favorite as well.
Congrats on your Etsy Shop! I see you already had a sale!! Way to go!! I hearted you ;~)

Congrats, I've been debating on opening an Etsy Shop myself. You just might have inspired me, again. Thanks. You Rock!
you already had a sale wahooo! I love the pumpkin you had up (which is now saaaOLD) but I also adore your table runner. I might have to sleep on it! Congrats!

Sara I had to get up and look at your shop...lol...I love the ball jars, I bought a small one and the larger one for my bathroom...going to use it for q tips and the larger one for cotton balls...will go perfect in there!
I remember snack plates like that, I think my mom might have some, we used to have a punchbowl and the punchbowl cups went with the plates, real cute together..you should find a punchbowl set! can't wait to get my jars!
Congrats and good luck with you shop!
Please make some letter stencils and place them in your shop!
Oh. My. Goodness. I LOVE the new shop. Just bought one of the sets of snack plates!
Big Congrats to you, Sarah! I'm going to your store right now. I'm so close to opening a shop on Etsy, just trying to get completely ready.
And thank you again for answering my emails, you don't know how much I appreciate all your advice and help ;-)
Love all of these selections ! Great job - it will be fun shopping !
Do me a fav - try deleting and readding my blog to your roll. I've updated all the feed settings, but for some reason yours is not rolling over. Garsh darn.

I love the luncheon plates. LOVE them...the oval swirly ones, the rectangle ones...I love them all.
Problem is, I have *no* use for them. Oh, I know--use them for parties. But the kind of parties we have, don't call for luncheon plates! (and before you tell me, "well, have one of those kind of parties!", let me assure you, it wouldn't work.
That doesn't mean that I don't have three punch bowls, incl one that converts from a covered cake plate to a punch bowl. And a whole array of platters, and my antique good china that I've bought off of ebay and at antique shops, etc. Which I use as often as I can.
But oh, I'm going to have to go look now, and see what else you've got going on in your etsy shop (and congrats on the sale!).
Congratulations on the store. I'm gonna have to go have a look.
Oh man this is too much for me to take. I have loved your blog for so long and now I'm going to be even more obsessed with your etsy shop!
I would love for you to be able to win my giveaway! Check it out!

Hi Sarah!
This is exciting! Good luck with your Etsy! I wish you oodles and ooddles of success!

I have some of those blue ball jars. What do you suggest for them, besides display? I'm all for showing them off but they need to do more than collect dust!
Jen
I have been following your blog for a while and finally decided to go ahead bite the bullet and join the blog family. I LOVE your blog I think that it RAWKS (your words not mine)! Keep up the good work!
I need you to make more of those treat jars, as they are adorable. And I want to buy a few sets for myself, family and friends.
But you need to ship to Canada! Can that be done, somehow?
Thanks!
I LOVE snack plates. I think I'm up to about 25..enough for lots of luncheons. :)
Etsy is so much fun, and you have beautiful goodies! My favorite part is waking up to find sales...LOVE THAT BIG TIME!
