BNR...if you can't beat 'em...

join 'em!

If you're an Etsy Treasury addict like me, you may have heard of BNRs. It stands for "Buy aNd Replace", and the basic premise is that you start with a treasury, and anyone who wishes to be in the treasury can buy something from somebody featured - their own item then replaces the item from the shop with a sale!



Sounds simple...but I have a feeling I'm going to be exhausted keeping track of who's bought what from whom...!

Check us out here!

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but youre older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
Its good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

If I had a million dollars...

My friend Littleworm introduced me to the fabulous BareNakedLadies' song (click to listen) just a year or so ago - I love it!

If I had a million dollars
I'd build a tree fort in our yard


lauramccabe.etsy.com

If I had million dollars
You could help, it wouldn't be that hard
If I had million dollars
Maybe we could put like a little tiny fridge in there somewhere



jessicavintage.etsy.com

You know, we could just go up there and hang out
Like open the fridge and stuff
There would already be laid out foods for us


STARSGEMINI3.etsy.com

Like little pre-wrapped sausages and things

If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner
But we would eat Kraft Dinner
Of course we would, we’d just eat more
And buy really expensive ketchups with it
That’s right, all the fanciest ke... dijon ketchups!
Mmmmmm, Mmmm-Hmmm

If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a green dress
(But not a real green dress, that's cruel)

I'd be rich



My treasury will only be around for a couple of days, and I wanted this collection to last longer. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
