These are great for facial scrubbies, washing baby, or even washing dishes. They're 100% cotton. Some of the sets include a 7 inch washcloth and most include a soap saver bag for all those pesky end pieces of soap that you usually end of throwing away. Collect a few in the bag and suds away!

That's all........

Treasury

Here's the Etsy treasury I made.

  

Gathered Waters

Made searching Etsy for castteam, green, aqua, lime, blue, teal, ocean and sea.  The colors of the sea and based on Genesis"  ...God gathered the waters..."

I've been featured in a couple of treasuries and one made the front page! 

Christian creativity

For those of you who know about Etsy.com, you will know that the product gallery that you see on the home page ia called a treasury.  They are generally chosen by etsy sellers, or as we like to call ourselves, "Estians".  They can be a little tricky to get posted because there are only a few SECONDS that an open space is available.  If you don't type fast enough to get your title listed, you will probably have to wait another 2-3 days until the next few seconds opens up. And if you do manage to snag a spot, you'd better make sure you typed correctly because there's no changing it!

All this to say.....I DID IT!!!!!!  It was lots of fun and I got to see a bunch of great products as I searched through alot of great shops.  The treasury I created can be seen here, but only for a couple of days, they expire after a couple of days.

I included an item from my daughter's Etsy store (http://www.makemineblue.etsy.com/)  and the rest are all members of the CASTTEAM or Christian Artists Street Team.  The title, Gathered Waters, came from the book of Genesis and the account of creation.  Stop by and take a look. If you click on an item it will take you to that sellers' store. And while you're at it , take a look at mine     http://www.atouchofheaven.etsy.com/.

Here's a sneek peek at my new listings:

Have a great day..........
