Freaky Friday
By theclackhouse
This actually was supposed to be a "Feature Friday" but to be honest with you I slacked a little and forgot to line up a seller to feature! lol..My mind stay so busy and I actually did email a wonderful seller of the CUTEST baby items bit I have yet to hear back. So...I'm making this FREAKY FRIDAY and feature myself! Yeah, I know..kinda shameless promotion, but oh well.
I thought this was too hilarious! Here's why.....
I thought this was too hilarious! Here's why.....

I was checking my Heartomatic a lil bit ago and found out this bad boy has been featured in the Gift Guides! YAY! But wait, which one? The GAG GIFT GUIDE! Why you ask? Seems like a harmless little jar candle right? Wrong..this is why...

A few months ago this Cinnamon Bun Jar candle was featured on Regretsy's facebook page. I added this new title to the listing to poke fun at myself which reads: Apparently they say the lil' stinker...lol looks as if it has a turd in the jar. Wondered why the darn thing kept getting so many views! I assure you that it does NOT smell like poo poo, doo doo, stinky, dookie, or diarrhea (as per comments left by facebook users..lol) It would make a great gift for ex mother-in-laws, annoying co-workers, an uninvited neighbor or even the dirty old man who lives next door.*****
So, I made this my freaky Friday feature because I
FINALLY into a gift guide, but it just had to the GAG GUIDE! lol
WONDERFUL

Hearts For Haiti
By theclackhouse
WOW, is all I really can say! Hearts For Haiti shop started on January 14, 2010 and has already made 565 sales (donations) and counting! They have currently raised (after fees): $6369.66!! I think it is awesome what they are doing. I donated some cupcake tarts, the same as the tarts for my blog giveaway, for the cause last night and I got a message this morning saying they already sold! YAY! It's not much and I wish I could do more and I may donate again, but even that little bit makes me feel good. =) The items in the shops are flying off the shelves so I know the admin over the shop has their handful! One of the shop leaders is Nora from transienttreasures. It is devastating what has happened. And just this morning when I logged in I saw this in Yahoo news..another devastating blow. =( New 6.1-quake hits Haiti. I'm at a loss. So, I guess the point of this blog post is to give a shot out to Hearts For Haiti. And to thank all the people that are devoting their time to the shop to keep it running. Every little bit helps..THANK YOU!!

New look!
By theclackhouse
I'm super excited this morning to let all my sweet friends know that The Clack House is going through a major makeover! When I first started about 4 years ago everything I done was geared toward the Primitive style of things. Needless did I know that I had pretty much already "branded" my shop and items. Don't get me wrong I still love prim and will be incorporating both in my Etsy shop..hehe But the little girl inside of me that is still in love with bows, ribbons, polkadots, tutus and ANYTHING pink woke up about 2 weeks ago and said "hey, I'm still in here!" So, it's been a VERY long couple of weeks. LOL. I've redesigned my packaging labels, ordered tons of pink and polka-dotted ribbon, changed our Myspace page, Twitter and now our blog! I just loved how it turned out! I grabbed this template over at Delicious Design Studio (after staying up til midnight) switching out templates from various sites. I found this site too that I think you may want to check out ~ Template Mama. She has made a great list with wonderful blog designers. I adjusted the header that came with this template on Picnik.com! Easy peasy..I really like the clean lines of this one. I'm still a little nervous about what my loyal customers will think, after all..it is all about your customers! But after posting my concerns of the "big change" in the Etsy forums, they made me feel a lot better! Anyway, sorry for rambling on..I'm just so excited!
