Grand Opening of my shop and a discount !

I officially opened my Esty Shop two days ago and was overwhelmed with a lot of lovely good wishes from friends everywhere. It is a grueling process but oh, so much fun .... and I still have a lot to learn in this process. If you have a shop on Etsy drop me line with some tips that would be helpful to this newbie.

I am so thankful for my beautiful friend Kim that offered to model my stuff and I think
it looks great on her... isn't she pretty?
Please visit her business fb page here she is a successful consultant for Tastefully SimpleHer foods are delicious, easy & simple to prepare, and only require two added ingredients or less to make. Tastefully Simple products include seasonings, mixes for breads, drinks, soups, desserts, open & enjoy items, and more. Feel free to ask her about placing an order, hosting a tasting or catalog party, or becoming a consultant!

I decided to officially kick off the opening I would have a discount code only available here.
For the next 5 days in honor of Groundhog Day I will have a 10% discount on my shop.
When making a purchase at Alma Boheme enter the code GROUNDHOG10.
The sale ends February 3rd at midnight.
If Punxsutawney Phil (aka Mr. Groundhog) sees his shadow, what better way than to celebrate the next six weeks with one of my designs? Trying to make a connection here.

I love the beauty of a handmade product. I take so much joy in the entire process from carefully selecting the yarn to weaving the ends... the process from the beginning to the end is a wonderful dance. I physically get excited over each project. Creating is what makes me happy. Please take a look at the shop; I will be adding new items very soon, which I will post mostly on my Facebook , Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest Pages.



Thanks again for all your support on my new adventure!
