Friday Finds Beach Weddings

Welcome to this week’s Friday Finds! The theme was “Beach Weddings”. We had hard time to pick only one treasury, so we picked two. They are both filled with amazing beach theme finds, from wedding favors and nautical theme decor, to bridal accessories.
One treasury was curated by Catherine from debroervandevogel. Catherine makes colorful mixed media jewelry made with polymer clay, paper, gemstones, felt, wood, sterling silver and other materials that inspire her.

Here is one of Catherine’s beautiful designs:





The second Etsy artist’s treasury was curated by Vesna Koatye from Koatye1. Vesna offers handmade wearable art like: fabric tote bags, hip bags, clutches, and yoga mats.

Here is one of her unique designs:




We hope you have enjoyed this edition of Friday Finds. Next week's theme will be “Soccer Time”. If you have a treasury you would like to submit, just send me or Susan a link via Etsy convo by Thursday afternoon and we will take a look. Remember, if your treasury is featured, we will feature an item from your shop. Thanks for stopping by! Until next time… Zoica

Free Wedding Anniversary Card Printables and Gift Ideas


Did you know that June is the most popular month of the year to marry, followed by August, July, May, and September.  The reasons for June being so popular go back to ancient times.  The Romans celebrated a festival to honor Juno, the wife of Jupiter and goddess of marriage and childbirth, on June first.

During the Middle Ages when hygiene was almost nonexistent, June was the month people took their yearly baths.  So a June wedding signified a good beginning!  Also, did you know that flowers were originally used to mask body odor.  Interesting!

Today June remains a popular choice for couples which means you may know someone who is getting married or having an anniversary.  I wanted to share some free anniversary cards with you today and then some gift ideas for that special couple.
