I just couldn't help but share just some of the new gems that just arrived. I am totally memorized by them, I'm trying to keep my head about it all but ever since I laid my eyes on them, and every time I see them since, I keep just keep repeating one word WOW. They are quite the treat!
What's your favorite flavor?

ZionShore's GIFTaway winner is....
I really had so much fun reading through all the comments and finding out what it is that you like most about Spring!
The winner said "... my favorite thing about spring is hearing the birds singing in the mornings again."
Yes it's true the thought of birds chirping outside my window is giving me a slight headache LOL ... but Kathy enjoys it!!
Congratulations Kathy Detweiler !!!
I thank everyone who participated and really hope to see you all again for the next one!

Let's Celebrate with a GIFTaway
There are a lot of reasons to celebrate:
For some it's because Spring is around the corner. For others it's a long and happy weekend with family and friends this Easter weekend. AND of course there's the fact that ZionShore's facebook fan count has reached 200!!! And the crowd cheers!
To celebrate I'm having a GIFTaway where a lucky winner will be able to choose ONE of the following pieces from my shop.
Mystic Blue Quartz Solitaire Necklace In Silver
Mystic Blue Quartz Oak Leaf Earrings in Gold
To enter the GIFTaway you need only to become a ZionShore facebook fan and enter a comment on my blog by telling what it is that you like most about Spring.
Spring is not my favorite season. It maybe different for you but I live in Canada and am not much fond of the whole thaw thing! I don't get what exactly there is to enjoy about seeing debris left behind by the melting mountains of snow and walking in slush and mud. Tell me please!!
Enter your comment on the ZionShore blog from now till April 9th, 2010 @ 23:59 EST. The winner will be picked at random and will be announced the following day.
All the men are welcome to enter also!! Mothers day is just around the corner!

The Bead Inspectors
The bead inspectors at ZionShore are two furry males with lots of facial hair. They are quite new to this job and when they are not busy whacking beads underneath the fridge or couch they moonlight as the backyard surveillance team.
Their names are Charlie and Thomas. They have only been with me just a little over a year. Charlie is 6 years old and Thomas is 3. They are my parents cats. After having them since they were tiny kittens my Mom's mysterious chronic cough of 2 years was diagnosed as "severe cat allergies".
So they came to live with my family. Thomas was first to arrive! It wasn't easy for him, he tried to make himself at home, but he missed Charlie!!
And Charlie felt all alone and wondered where Thomas had gone to.
Not too long after though Charlie joined him and they have settled in quite nicely.
The toys in my house are all on double duty. My son plays with them during the day and the cats have at it in the middle of the night.
Nothing ever goes on in the back yard without their knowing about it!
My mom dreams of having them back one day. That may not be possible, especially with Thomas, but she does visit them! In fact she'll be over this weekend to pamper them!

Search Engine Antics
Through out 2009 I was able use a Google tool called Analytics to see stats on visitors that stopped by my Etsy shop. One of the things Analytics does is list the search keywords that people typed which brought up the results for ZionShore. Some of the keywords used in the searches make sense (actually most of them make sense). For example if someone were to search - Red Spinel gold leaf necklace - Chances are my shop will appear in the search results and if you click on the result, Voila!, you end up at my shop.
There were however some questionable keyword searches that landed people in my shop. These search keywords make no sense and are totally unrelated to ZionShore because the items cannot be found there nor are they in the tags. But they are just downright hilarious. I thought I’d share them with you and am really glad there’s not that many!
6-hanging light kit
If I did have one in my shop it would definately look like this one!
5-1970 heels
4-AC/DC diy shirt
I wonder if #5 and #4 were searches from the same person ... hmmm
3-reuseable sandwich bags
2-stuffed moustache with a moustache
Doesn't a bunny with a mustache just make him a cat?
1-x files tv props
This one my favorite! Who knows, maybe my next necklace collection will have spy cams in the pendants.
