June Etsy Round-Up

June 16, 2014 4 Comments

The first Etsy collection I have for your this month is one that reminds me of summer. When I think of summer, I think of lemonade, blue skies, grass, and the outdoors, even though I live in the city. So this collection is color-themed on those points, with an urban touch. This second treasury is all about where June got it’s name. The name comes from Juno, queen of the Roman gods (Hera is the Greek version). She was wife to Jupiter, and goddess of marriage. Her symbols include a peacock and a goatskin cloak. What does June make […]

May Etsy Round-Up

May 19, 2014 1 Comment

May is named for the Greek goddess Maia, eldest of the seven Pleiades and mother of Hermes. In Greek, Maia also means midwife. In Roman mythology, Maia is associated with growth and fertility. So this month’s round-up of Etsy finds celebrates all of those, in pretty blush tones. Take a look: What does May make you think of?

April Etsy Round-Ups

April 14, 2014 2 Comments

Time for pretty things from Etsy! I have two lovely collections again for you this month. And no, they are not Easter-themed (I’m so sick of seeing bunnies and carrots and eggs everywhere). One is all about April showers (which hopefully bring May flowers) – fitting as it is currently storming outside. The other is about the name of April, which comes from the Roman verb aperire, “to open,” in reference to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to open. Take a look: What does April make you think of?

Time for another Etsy round-up! I love making treasuries on Etsy, so these posts are always fun to put together. I’ve got two for you this month, take a look: Martial March March is named for Mars, the Roman god of war (Ares in the Greek pantheon – not to be confused with Aries in the zodiac). So this month-themed treasury is all about him. Some of his symbols include a chariot, a spear, a helmet, and a dog.

February Etsy Round-Up

February 10, 2014 No Comments

Time for fun and beautiful finds this month on Etsy! I’ve got two round-ups for you this time. One is a tribute to the name of the month, February, which comes from the name of a Roman purification ritual held this time of year. The other is a tribute to the folk art of the current host of the 2014 Winter Olympics, which are going on right now.
