Cyber Monday Specials from the Unique Women in Business Group

The Unique Women in Business group is a worldwide group of women supporting other women in business.  We teach each other, support each other, cry together over losses and failures, and we celebrate together our wins and achievements.  This group not only has a special website with items to help you make your holiday purchases called My Unique Gift Guide, but now we have a special event scheduled for Cyber Monday!!

We have put together a special treasury featuring all UWIB shoppes offering a 10% discount to all shoppers.  The coupon code to use is UWIBTEAM10 in any of these shops.  Now, don't think you need to just stick with the item featured in the shop--spend some time going through these unique shops and find some awesome treasures to delight your friends and family.  Don't forget to use the code for any of your purchases!  Now here is the link to the treasury:  UWIB Cyber Monday Treasury.

I spent a little time perusing their shops to come up with some great items for my list of needs.  Let's shop together!!

Let's stop first at the HandmadeBits4U shop for my absolute favorite purchase this year.  I'm picking these up for all of my family.  It is the greatest find and I use it so often.
Microwave Bowl PotHolder  
Now let's go to ShantiAromatherapy for some good smells and aromas!!  Ahhhhh!!  So nice.  One of my friends has started to feel the wonderful side effects of menopause and is constantly having hot flashes.  So, guess what I'm picking up for her stocking??
Hot Flash!
RobinMariePedrero Arts is a mainstay in my shopping round.  Her artwork is so colorful and happy!  I think everyone needs a piece in their home.   With 10% off, how can you possibly go wrong??  She even makes cards, iphone skins, fine art bags, etc.  But this piece is calling me and I have the perfect recipient in mind.
Mariposa Butterfly in the Morning Light
JMJ Creations is a wonderful jewelry shop for the feminine woman in your life.  Everything she creates is so delicate and special.  I know, I know, I make jewelry, but come on--we all create different styles and I love to own hers.  So this holiday season will be a perfect time to get some of these special rings for my daughters, for myself, for my friends, for myself, for my cousins, for myself, oh you get the picture.
Amethyst Crystal Ring
Crazy for Collars has such special items for pets.  I personally own many of her collars, harnesses, and these adorable tags.  My little fur babies each have one on their collar with all the important info.   Now I think I will get some for gifts for my brother's dog, my mother's dog, hmmm, who else needs one??  Doesn't have to be for a dog does it?  How about a back pack tag for the kid's school pack?  They come in hearts as well.
Engraved Dog Tags
Honey From the Bee has some awesome nature inspired pieces in her shop.  I have selected this gorgeous piece because she actually made the pendant herself as well as the ribbon tips.  She is such an artist!
Gingko Leaf with Opal Silver Pendant
Vintage Day has a plethora of vintage items in her shop.  My daughter, Shilo, loves vintage and I know I will be able to find some great stocking stuffers in this shop.  I found this awesome piece that my imagination is tweaking into a great bridal piece, hmmmmm.
Pink Floral Barrett
Aquarian Bath is full of luscious finds.  You can just imagine the smells as you click through these pictures.  I love her flax seed pillows and plan to pick up a couple for gifts again this year.  They do come in different colors and they feel so wonderful, especially when heated.
Lavender Flax Neck Pillow
SerebaDesigns has some special and totally unique pieces in her shop.  She has a special knitted bracelet that is even being published in an upcoming book.  We anxiously await the book.  In the meantime, I found some super soft hand knit scarves for the cold winter ahead.
Lavender Pink Scarf

PreciousDesirables offers a variety of hand painted items, candles, glasses, and other fun items.  I have selected this gorgeous light switch plate cover as a gift for a friend in a new home.  I think it will add some lovely flowers to the room each time she turns on the light.
Rose Design Light Switch
ChicArtistique has some intricate pieces of jewelry in her shop.  What a fun to see how other artists create such special pieces with wire and crystals.  I absolutely love this necklace and I know it takes a true artist to make it so spectacular.  I can't wait to give this as a gift.  And she has reduced the price!!!
Tree of Life Pendant Necklace
EarthExpressions creates a variety of zen and nature inspired items.  She has handmade soaps and some awesome polymer clay pieces.  Here's a unique piece that is fashioned in the technique called Mokume Gane.  I am so intrigued that I must get one of these.
Chameleon Abstract Pendant
CapeCodJewelry fashions her pieces with visions from the sea.  It all has such a strong current to it that you can actually hear the sea gulls overhead as you shop in her boutique.  I am torn in many directions, but think this bracelet may be the perfect gift for the next person on my list.
Cape Cod Style Seashell Bracelet
Last, but not least, let's check out my shop, Momma Goddess, I have been experimenting with silk and colors.  Check out my silk scarves for the perfect gift for that hard to buy for woman.  I can make shawls or ponchos as well.
Great Barrier Reef
So, listen up everyone, tomorrow is Cyber Monday and you need to take advantage of these special women and their awesome sale just for the day!!! 

Remember, use coupon code UWIBTEAM10 in any of these shops to receive 10% off.  Go to this treasury:   Cyber Monday Holiday Deals 10% Off UWIB  to get started or to finish that holiday list.  The days are ticking away from you.  I believe there are just 27 days left.

If you are interested in joining our group, be sure to contact me and I'll hook you up.

Happy Holidays!!!

Etsy Twitter Team Shop of the Week - Aquarian Bath

Cory Trusty of Aquarian Bath is the Etsy Twitter Team shop of the week!  Congrats to Cory!!  I love her shop and drift in there regularly to stock up on goodies. 

As the name implies, she makes and carries a wide array of bath products, but I love the other items she carries.  For example, I use an eye pillow at night to sleep.  I hate having lights wake me or keep me awake and I love the aroma from the pillows.  I ordered a great eye pillow from her shop and she will even make them in different colors if you have a preference.  Check this one out:
Eye Pillow with Organic Lavender & Organic Flax

Also, check out the great neck wrap for those days that you have strained or tensed a little too much.
Microwavable Lavender Flax Neck Wrap

 I believe the fact that she grows most of her own herbs is important so you know she is accurate when she says 'organic' on her labels.  She even sells seeds on her website so you, too, are able to grow your own herbs.  She has three kinds of basil seeds available, but I am drawn to this one.
Thai Basil Seeds
 Among her many and unique items I have found I absolutely LOVE her solid perfumes.  A tiny bit goes a long way and they last forever.  You don't have to smell like everyone else when you order your own unique perfume from Cory.  I have tried this one and found it to be unique.
Jasmine Sambac Perfume
 I forgot to close it one day and left it sitting on the counter in my bathroom and found it to be a rather lovely room freshener as well.

Stop by Cory's shop to check out her other goodies.  I know you will find some lovely gift items to help you stock up for the holidays.  

She has a special running for her Shop of the Week, she will include a package of seeds of your choice with each purchase.  Mention "Etsytwitter Team SOTW" in notes to seller and let her know which seeds.

UWIB Promotion has Started

I belong to a group of entrepreneurs called Unique Women in Business.  We support each other and educate each other.  The women are located all over the world as well as the United States.

As a method to allow more people to have a glimpse into our various shops we have started an exceptional promotion which involves adding a little treasure from some of the UWIB shops when we ship out an order.  The promotion items are so adorable and fun that I wanted to let you know about some of the shops involved in this venture.

Our organizer for this promo is from BKD Signature with some great little 'face scrubbies' for you to sample.

Her shop is having a HUGE Etsyversary Sale with 30% off many items.  Here is a sampling of just one of her sale pendants.

I love the colors in this glorious pendant and can envision it with a black ribbon tied up close choker style.

The price is right at $5.60 . . . just think of the possibilities!

Next up is Kristen Stein Fine Arts with a compact little note pad which is purse tuck-able AND a piece of her artwork reduced in size and placed in a metal framed pendant.  Wow!  That's a treasure to hang on to.  I personally have a piece of her work and it is a wonderful addition to my art collection.


Watch closely for her work on some of your favorite shows on TV.  This one is "Spirit of Autumn Fire" and my personal favorite.  As seen on SyFy Channel's Warehouse 13.

You can grab this one up for a mere $32.00 and I don't know where you will find a better value for your walls!!

Check out her shop for more of her items.  Watch for her name in many art venues -- Kristen Stein Fine Arts.

 
Ohhhhh, now let's wander off into the world of Magick!!
 
One of our newest members is Deborah's Candle Magick and she has given some great little tins with her pure soy candles inside.  The smells emanating from this batch is astonishing.  I can imagine how luxurious you will feel with one of these on your candle warmer, a nice hot cup of tea and a huge book to relax you.


 
Deborah offers many unique and interesting items and I found these "Witches Brew" candles in her shop for 
2 for $20 and each one burns 55-60 HOURS!!  
That calculates out to 16 cents an hour for a yummy atmosphere.


KLE Designs has included great little hair pins with a decorative attachment.  Her shop has a great variety of treasures for you to peruse. One of my favorites is the "Cake and Pie Server" with the blue glass beads and copper wire wrapping for only $20.  Imagine using this at your next special function!    She also has an antique tomato server that is truly a find for you collectors.






Aquarian Bath has included some delicious slices of her handmade soaps and some of them smell good enough to eat!!

I have some of her "Bay Rum" lip balm and it is wonderful!  She carries it in her shop for $3.50 and comes in a size that is much larger than the brand name balms you buy at the store.  Give her a shop a visit.
 

Design Knit Fun has included some very stylish wrist adornments that she made specifically for this little promo.  A great variety of colors and textures abound in this grab bag of fun! 

Check out her shop for a variety of hand knit specialties.  I found this appropriately named red "Valentine Cowl" that will add some unique interest to your wardrobe for only $20.  Just look at the myriad of colors within this red yarn!   

Wabi Brook Studio has included some handy little magnets with varying images of some beloved animals that will comfort the soul when you pick up that grocery list--or maybe remind you to purchase some pet food perhaps.  Either way, they are cute and will make you smile! She is truly an artist as the  ACEO testifies and it is available for $4.00.  Now who does this little West Highland Terrier remind you of . . . 

Oh, and what about me? Momma Goddess Treasures --  I made some little ribbon bookmarks to introduce people to my shop.  They were fun to make and I hope the customers who receive them will get some use and enjoyment out of them.


At least as much fun as I did making them.
So, that's the promotion from Unique Women in Business this month; each purchase you make from one of the above mentioned shops will have a cute little surprise tucked into the box.  What a great idea for our women to get their names into more prospective customer's hands.  I hope you benefit from this promo!
