Wow Factor Wednesday Feature - Salutations!

Welcome to our Wow Factor Wednesday Feature, todays featured seller is Charlotte from Salutations! on Etsy.com. I recently purchased a baby beanie and couldn't be happier! It is very well made and utterly adorable!!

Now, let's get up close and personal with our artist...Hello! I'm Charlotte. I live in Northern Utah with my husband and our little girl.

I've been crocheting since I was about ten years old, which is when my mother taught me how. Years earlier, my mother learned the same set of skills from her mother. The funny thing is, when my grandmother was around 80 or so, she had me sit down with her and re-teach her. So, we came full circle.


Crocheting is one of my most enjoyable hobbies. I like the feel of the yarn between my fingers, and I love the way a hand-made blanket, scarf, hat, or whatever else has a different feel to it than something that is made with more automation. There's a feel of love in handmade articles. I'm grateful for that.

I've been selling on etsy since the summer of 2009, and have had just a marvelous experience here. I'm a member of the etsy Create Crochet team, as well as the Trade-a-holics team, and I fully enjoy my participation in both.

If you'd like to learn more about me and my little family, feel free to check out my blog at charlottelaughs.blogspot.com Any time I list new items, I post pictures on my Facebook Fan Page. You can check that out at:

Hope you have enjoyed this weeks feature! Don't forget about our giveaway - #50 takes the prize!!

Braggin Rights Bath - Our Wow Factor Wednesday Feature

Hello all and happy Wednesday. We have returned from our Port St. Lucie Spring Training adventure (Let's Go Mets!). I am feeling refreshed and rejuvenated and in the spirit of that I have decided this weeks feature is going to be one of my favorite bath and body shops: Braggin Rights Bath!!
This wonderful shop is full of amazing items that are luxurious and whimsical. My personal favorite is the Chocolate Milk Bath! So rich and creamy...my skin feels amazing after.

Here's a little bit about the owner; in her own words!
My first name is Tracy, I got into business about 4 yrs. ago, though I only opened this Etsy shop in January. I love anything that smells good, love chocolate, and bath products; as well as love to be creative... I thought it was a perfect match, and I was right! I spend time with my family and embroider as well. My mother is, and always has been my inspiration- she has given me the morals and beliefs that have allowed me to treat my customers excellent, and provide a fantastic product. She told me to make someone smile, and I try to do it daily! :-)

Braggin Rights Bath can be found on Etsy as well as on the web. To find her on etsy please go to To find her on the web please go to We hope you have enjoyed this weeks feature and that you go check out this great shop! Tracy is a real joy to work with; her products are fabulous and her customer service is unbeatable!
