Hope everyone is having a good week! Happy Australia Day to those living down under! Well, I have caught up on orders and am looking forward to finally tackling my sewing room.
We moved last summer and I couldn't wait to have my own space to sew and scrapbook. The room finally got painted and now it is time to set it up and organize. I have put it off far too long. The hard part is where to put everything and the set-up will be key to maximize my space especially when my daughter wants an art table in there for her to do arts and crafts with mommy or while mommy sews. All this being said, I thought I could get some ideas from Pinterest. I am new to Pinterest and could use any help or suggestions you are willing to give.
In the meantime, I plan to use my creativity to create new Valentine, St. Patty's Day, and Easter Owls for my Etsy shop and Simply Charmed Boutique. I am full of ideas and have a book full of sketches that are just dying to get out and turned into plush owls!
Welcome to a friendly, affordable place to get homemade products made by a mom. Plush for everyone! Makes a fabulous gift! I started this blog so I could share my business and the behind the scenes with others as well as promote and share other businesses. Please take a look around!

The New Year is Here!
Well it looks like I am not meeting my goal of blogging more often. I guess you just can’t do it all and when life gets busy it leaves less time for this. Maybe the New Year will bring about more posts and now tweets. I finally joined Twitter (@tzburps) and Pinterest (TZ Burps).
I am excited to share that TZ Burps is off to a great start so far in 2012. I hope to keep the momentum going. Only 10 more sales away from 200 and my shop’s 2 year anniversary on Etsy is March 5th. My goal is to reach 200 sales by March 5th. My new favorite product to make are the bubo owls, they seem to be the right size and price. You will be able to enter to win a free customized bubo owl starting Monday at RockerByeBaby’s blog. I have also enjoyed making the mini owls/birds. 20 of them just went on a journey to Canada for a 1 year old’s birthday party! You can enter to win your choice of mini owl or bird at Lindsey’s Fluff n Stuff on Facebook from now until Feb 1st. Valentine’s Day will be here before we know it and TZ Burps has a lot of new items ready to ship for the special day, so make sure to check out the Etsy shop. Thanks again for being such great supporters and here’s to a hooteriffic 2012!

Where has the time gone?!
Man, where has the time gone? I have been so busy trying to balance orders, shows, stock, teaching, my daughter’s schedule and school, house work, Etsy, Facebook, am I missing anything? Whew! Anyone have any tips on how to balance it all? My mom always says you can’t do it all, but I have that drive to do it all.
Anywhooo, I am glad to be back. It is time to get into the swing of things starting with sharing all the upcoming sales for black Friday and cyber Monday brought to you by the EtsyKids team!
TZ Burps! Will be offering custom owl pillows (aka custom owlets) at a discounted price of $17 that is a savings of $5, $20 shipped!! This offer will begin now for all blog and facebook followers just email tzburps@gmail.com to place an order.
In the time that I have been missing from here, I have had the pleasure of being featured on 20 Best Twenty, The Little Hedgehog, and My Little Pixies. Great people, great bloggers great sites, great products. Check em out!
Ok, I am really going to try to post more often and keep you up to date with new project ideas and giveaways. Lots of new Christmas and Winter Owls have been added to Facebook and Etsy if you are looking to give an owl a home this holiday season. Thanks for supporting TZ Burps!

Busy, Busy, Busy...
Where has the summer gone? Back to work for me as a teacher began last week, then an earthquake, followed by a hurricane! What a crazy week. Things are getting back to normal, kids returned to school mid-week, and now it is time to balance work, sewing, and family. Not an easy task, but I am sure it will all work out.
In other news, TZ Burps is being featured today on Tutus and Tea Parties blog for freebie Friday! You can check out her super cute blog and enter to win a custom princess owlet. Giveaway runs until 9/16/11. Make sure you let her know I sent you! Good luck to you all. Hope you enjoy the rest of your summers and make the most of your long labor day weekend. Maybe you have something fun planned. Would love to hear what. We will be celebrating my mom's birthday with a cookout-yum!
