I just made my first Etsy Treasury! If I had known how much FUN it is to collect amazing Etsy treasures to put together in a theme based group, I would have made a million of these by now. Serious playtime for me!

Okay so my Treasury is called:Oh No! Its almost Fathers Day-What DOES Dad want? by emarshallgallery. Its a WONDERFUL collection of gifts that would be perfect for Dad, Grandpa, your Husband, (your baby daddy?- gotta keep up with the times, right?) The pics above are only a few of the great finds in this treasury- check it out to see ALL the FUN IDEAS!

You know how your husband or dad does not ever even wear a tie, and he only wears the ONE kind of cologne that he’s worn for the last 20 years, and he just doesn’t need anymore gadgets, so what do you get him? My dilemma is that, the things my husband wants cost well over several thousand dollars.
Here is his wish list for this year:
1. a 6 Series BMW- black on black.
2. number one is all he wants.
3. He already owns everything else he wants because he goes out and buys it himself.

I hate to break it to him, but thats probably NOT what he’s going to get. But I AM going to go back to my Etsy Treasury list, and see what I can come up with that is a little more in my price range.
Good luck to all of you- Please let me know if you come up with any really great ideas that I can use! What are YOU buying for the man in your life this year?! We all want to know!
Thanks, Elizabeth

About elizabethmarshallgalleryblog

About the Artist Elizabeth Marshall defines her art as “who I AM, not what I do…” Art is Elizabeth’s peace, her passion and her Zen; her studio: her sanctuary. And it is with innate guidance that she is driven to create. The Elizabeth Marshall Gallery is a tribute to her rebirth as an artist. Elizabeth’s mission statement is simple: “Empty Spaces Awakened –Captivating the Mind, Nourishing the Soul”. Beginning with what can best be described as Divine Inspiration, her paintings unfold slowly. A flower, a place, a song, inspiration comes unexpectedly and a new dream is born -each painting, her child, with each stroke deliberately placed- possibly to be erased and replaced until reaching perfect harmony. Because of this attention to detail, one will not find extensive numbers of paintings in her collection, but only the select few that have been born of her innate sense of creation. Every painting’s story is a piece of the puzzle that makes up Elizabeth’s life. Having spent the greater portion of her career as a watercolor artist, her transformation to the bold, bright colors of oil pastel is significant with regard to her approach to life, as a whole. Positive energy and boldness of colors that nourish the soul are hallmarks of her paintings and are indicative of her bold passion for life. Elizabeth Marshall’s work has been described as “magical and dream-like”, “beautiful, colorful, fun, and fanciful”. Above all else, Elizabeth creates paintings that take the viewer to a place of inner happiness and serenity. “Beautiful, colorful artwork with a contemporary twist” –Sandy Askey-Adams, artist “ I like the way you have interpreted an ordinary event, such as running water in a sink, to make it seem magical” “I like the happiness and the energy in your work” –Jane Aukshunas, artist “I love the vibrant colors you use” –Happy Seagull Jewelry on Etsy “Your work is amazing”-bellarosaandme on Etsy History… Although Elizabeth would define herself as having always been an artist, it was early in her high school years in Walla Walla, Washington, that she realized this would be her career; not just her passion. As she began to win awards for her watercolor paintings: Best in Show at the Washington State Fair, and Best in Show at the Carnegie Center for the Arts, both in Walla Walla, she was grasped by the excitement of being recognized. It was at this same time that she sold her first piece of artwork- a simple black and white pen and ink drawing of two Chinese women working in a r
