Good Morning Cottage Style Street Team...I hope you had
a picture perfect weekend and got to enjoy some sunshine.
We have some fun projects coming up...on that I will
write more about the end of this week because right now
I want the light to shine on our Featured Member of the
week...Corrie from EnfantJoli.etsy.com
Corrie is one of our teams newest members and has jumped
in with both feet in our forums. She is a delight and
a great support to all of our members. I have to say
she is our first featured seller from Canada!
EnfantJoli is absolutely FABULOUS...the perfect little
boutique for that special and original gift for the
little one in your life. An array of hand painted shoes,
clothes and oh so much more...attention to detail is
obvious in each and everyone of her creations. There are
some special pieces for the adult such as hand painted
stamp boxes, trinket boxes and more. You must treat
yourself and take a peek into this unique and beautiful
world of EnfantJoli.etsy.com
Corrie just loves to paint and one of her favorite
pass times is junking! She also instilled creativity
and the freedom of being unique to her children. A
wonderful artist...team mate and person and we are
thrilled to have her as a part of our wonderful and
unique group of talented artists. I am sure that
Corrie would love to hear from you...so drop her a
little comment here...she will be thrilled! Till
later this week...hugs...pops

Featured Seller: CatNapCottage
Good Morning to all of my friends on the Cottage Style
Street Team. My wish for you is to have a week filled
with love, creativity, understanding, motivation,
happiness, health and joy. Remember to take a moment
to be thankful for all the gifts that God has given
you or whatever you believe in. Also don't let any
opportunity pass you by to show your loved ones that
they are treasured. Enjoy each passing day.
Well it is that time again...it's Monday and of course
we have a new Cottage Style Street Team member of the
week...drumroll please........It is Cindy from the
CatNapCottage.etsy.com but from the start I dubbed
her the Royal QUEEN of Chenille!!!! One look at her
incredible shoppe on Etsy and there will be NO question
why that name was given to her.
Cindy is a vintage textile collector and pillow
designer. She has assembled a large array of vintage
fabrics through her travels so each pillow is all
about the fabric it is made from. Each one is special
and has it's own story...how wonderful is that! Cindy
has a special love of barkcloth and has collected
hundreds of yards of this magical fabric...rich with
color...design...texture and history. Not only
does she create she shares these treasures in her
shoppe so others can use their imagination and
talents to conjure up a delightful work of art.
The CatNapCottage.etsy.com is filled with all kinds
of special vintage finds! You must drop by and take
a peek...you will enter a Cottage Land that you will
not want to leave. Cindy is a valuable and wonderful
asset to the Cottage Style Street Team and we are
honored to have her with us. A team player and a
delight!
So...make some time and go visit her...it will be a
journey that you enjoy for sure. You will feel all
warm and cozy after your eyes feast on the soft,
fluffy, nubbie and let's not forget yummy and
delicious chenille that has all the comfort of a
a helping of warm homemade peach cobbler with
ice cream! Enjoy! Sending you all hugs...pops
Please leave Cindy a little note to say HI! : )
I have just read the forum posts and our friend
Cindy from the CatNapCottage needs prayers for
some family problems that are serious. Please
take a moment and send Cindy and her family some
prayers and warm thoughts. Hoping and praying
that things get better in your lives.

Featured Seller: SimplyFrenchDesigns
Good morning Cottage Style Street Team...hope you
all had a fabulous weekend and enjoyed some of the
warmer weather that blew in for a few days. The
team listings look so beautiful and so SPRING TIME!
Love seeing the sweet Easter Treats and all the
pastels adorning the pages. Looking forward to
seeing more and more incredible creations from the
best team on ETSY : )
Today we are featuring someone that is no stranger
to any of us...Denise from TheSeasonalCottage.etsy.com
but this time wearing her SimplyFrenchDesign.etsy.com
hat or should I say beret! She has this absolutely
delightful shoppe that is like a French Pastry shoppe
filled with delicate treats that will become the
muse to your art. You must drop by and take a peek!
You will say...oooooolala!
Denise is also one of the biggest supporters here
in the wonderful world of the Cottage Style Street
Team...she is always posting finding fabulous goodies!
Denise also shares all the information that she
finds out with us...the latest in Twitter...Etsy...
New Sites and so much more...a generous and giving
friend to us all. We want to let her know how much
she is appreciated and loved here. Hugs to you
Denise from us all!
Now...Denise wrote a little bit about why she
created SimplyFrenchDesigns.etsy.com and wanted to
share it with all of you...so here it is in
Denise's own words : ) I am sure you will enjoy
this little piece of history, I know I did.
I am of French descent on both sides of my family
and as my grandmother use to point out - no one
"intermarried" until this generation. Both sides
of the family tree have been researched back to
the 1600's in Saint-Jean-de-Mortagne, Perche
(Normandy) France. My ancestors on my Dads side
- Our name was originally "Guyon" now Dion,
traveled from France to Quebec and were among
the original 43 settlers of Quebec. (We visited
there and there are parks and streets named after
my ancestors - which my sons thought was very cool)
My fathers parents were from Quebec. My mother was
raised with French as her first language at home
and the Catholic schools she attended. My father's
parents immersed themselves in the English language
and raised their children to be bi-lingual.
My parents spoke French to each other but we spoke
only English. So enough rambling. I have always been
fascinated with my culture and have collected
everything French (both old and new) for many years.
I just find it comforting in some weird way.
Please stop in and say hi to Denise I know she
will so love to see you! Hugs...pops!
