Etsy frontpage, 04 March 2008

I finally made it to the frontpage of Etsy.com!!! In fact my little print made it there twice - first in the morning then in the evening. It sold eventually and yet I can't even describe how excited I was to find that out! Traci Horschel (click me) was kind enough to make a screenshot of the frontpage with my dandelion there (thank you Traci!)

Where is my food?
