Exploring Creativity, Curiosity, and Conscious Thought

Thursday is synonymous with Treasury Day here on the Mystic Wynd blog. It's the day I like to share one of the treasuries I've created over the past week, although with the holiday shopping season approaching, the treasuries are coming fast and furious. A great way to help promote other sellers as well as to find items that I might not have otherwise readily seen, the treasury feature on Etsy is definitely a marketing boon. While I only actually post one or two of the treasuries I create each week, you can find all of the treasuries I'm involved in - whether it's curating them or being featured in them - by clicking on the Treasuries link in the right sidebar of this page! Wouldn't want you to miss any of them ;) Today, I'm sharing a couple of gift guide treasuries that I've put together this week - I'd love to hear your thoughts, and of course I'd love it if you'd visit them and help promote them as well! Here's the first one - a treasury of hostess gifts that are perfect for the upcoming holiday season of entertaining and spending time with family and friends!
