APRIL -So Bay LA Team Challenge # 2

"A gush of bird song, a patter of dew
A cloud and a rainbow's warning;
Suddenly sunshine and perfect blue
An April day in the morning!"
- Harriet Prescott Spofford

"When April scatters charms of primrose gold
Among the copper leaves in thickets old,
And singing skylarks from the meadows rise,
To twinkle like black stars in sunny skies;

When I can hear the small woodpecker ring
Time on a tree for all the birds that sing;
And hear the pleasant cuckoo, loud and long --
The simple bird that thinks two notes a song."
- William Henry Davies, April's Charms


We ask that this April, everyone makes at least one April inspired treasury. What does April make YOU think of? Rain drops, flowers, mud, and new beginnings! You choose your inspiration=)

RULES :

*You may only include items from other team members shops.
*You may make more than one, but please attempt to make at least one per challenge.
*Choose only one item per team member PER treasury. Not 5 of your best friends items in one set ;] Even IF she's a total rock star.
*Use the links on the side of your completed treasury to share it with customers and friends!
*Please post a link to your completed treasuries as a reply IN THE APRILTREASURY THREAD. All links posted as the links by themselves as a new thread clutter our thread board and make things more difficult to navigate our discussions. All links and new threads not posted in the appropriate section will be MOVED and then closed to avoid confusion.
*HAVE FUN! :) :)
**UPDATE : PLEASE MAKE SURE ADD THIS TAG TO YOUR TREASURY : SoBayLATeam

Well, hello there :)

I can't believe we are already over 50 members strong! South Bay, I am so glad we have found a way to connect with each other and support each other. I for one believe in communicating with each other with nothing but positivity and encouragement. With that said, I welcome any artists, crafters, suppliers, bloggers, vintage sellers (am I forgetting anyone?) to come on over and check out what your neighbors are making!! Let's build a strong communication base and make some sales, South Bay! As long as you have a glue gun in one hand, and some good vibes surrounding you... Well , then ~ it's nice to meet you!
