Month in Review - August 2010
It's no surprise that I've been neglecting my blog lately, although I've tried to get back on track. Things have been down right nutty here at the MerCurios HQ. What with all the contests, features and mentions, I've had little time to me or my family. So I'm going to try and sum it all up here...
Leopard Milkshake LOVES MerCurios! And they showed their their love with three different features this month:
Ribbon of Life, featuring our Copper Double Banner Ring
Gleaming, featuring our Silver Double Banner Ring
Double Up, featuring our Tattoo Banner Ring and Men's Cuff Ring
We teamed up with Inked Up Mommies and Fashion Clique for two awesome & exclusive giveaways.
MerCurios was interviewed for Yahoo Associated Content. You can read that article here.
Lets see... Alexandra Keller included our Carpe Diem Banner Ring in her post: What I want - stamped metal. Rame Ottone, the curator behind the blog Bling of the Day also featured our Carpe Diem Banner Ring in this lovely post. Aleka of the blog Sunshine Sarah was so smitten with our custom rings that she featured us in this beautiful post.
Hmm, oh yeah - our 'quirky' Two-Finger Crystal Ring was included in the "15 reasons we heart Etsy" feature in the September Issue of Cleo Magazine, page 72 - and - on their website in the Fashion Editors Top 5 here. Now how amazing is that?! ...and did I mention...they found us!
And we made the Etsy Front Page with the Caged Quartz Ring that was featured in a stunning treasury by Taylorseclectic
Wow! I truthfully had no idea how busy August was until I pulled it all together to recap here. Let's keep the momentum going!

Some entries trace the creative process, others reflect on inspiration found in nature, history, or daily life.
