Kattzz Meow

We have all heard of home parties. The first thing that comes to mind is a bunch of ladies gathered in your mother’s living room, shopping for the latest in plastic bowls and spoons! Well there’s something new “buzzin’” around town and it ain’t your mamas Tupperware party! As women become more liberated, the gadgets that make us smile are no longer the ones that can “whip up the best darned mashed potatoes in an instant!” While some are still made of plastic and pyrex, these are the gadgets that keep us barefoot and in the bedroom!

As a Passion Parties consultant I have had the opportunity to meet so many amazing women. Some are completely open about their sex life while others are quiet and reserved and prefer to keep their private lives to themselves. By passing around the latest in edibles, adult toys and creams that do everything from tighten to tingle, ladies enjoy the opportunity of getting a closer look than in a store. The home setting makes for a more comfortable atmosphere and the items make for some interesting conversation to say the least.

If we can get together and educate each other about everything from cookware to skincare, why not educate ourselves about enhancing our sex life? By hosting a Passion Party, you can see, touch and even taste the products before buying them, all while sharing some giggles with your closest friends. If you ask me, that sure beats going into your local adult store!

Many women think that they can’t have an orgasm, but maybe they just don’t know how. The truth is, just because your body belongs to you, don’t expect someone to hand you a manual telling you how it works! If you want to figure things out, you need to do some exploring.

Even though these parties tend to make people blush and giggle, it is something that I think everyone should attend. It doesn’t matter who you are, or how much experience you have, there is something for everyone at a Passion Party. Make it fun by adding a theme, have a potluck and have everyone bring a sensual food or desert! Many hostesses have fun with cocktails by serving pink panties and screaming orgasms. Unlike the usual party hosted with the intention of selling something, people don’t run in the other direction when you mention you are having a Passion Party! In fact, many girls have heard of “those” parties but don’t know how to go about getting one together. Girls are thrilled to come and even bring friends. This is the one party where your significant other will say, “Take the credit card! Buy whatever you want!”

Better yet, have a co-ed party. Bring your man along and taste the edibles together. Explore your options together and find new ways to spice up your love life. I have heard a lot of girls say, “He would never do that”. You would be surprised at how excited men are to see what we have. Men love gadgets right? Men love sex too. Imagine if there was a gadget that enhanced their orgasms, well… there is and we have it! Get a little something for him and how can he complain if you buy something for yourself!

Finding out that “that” goes “there” and you can “lick this” and if you blow on it “it gets hot”, is no longer something to be ashamed of. These once naughty items are becoming more and more popular.
No matter what kind of crowd, I always hear someone say, “Wow, I had no idea!” or “I never knew…” It is healthy to explore your fantasies and lead an active and imaginative sex life. My job brings couples closer together and keeps a smile on their face. While I’m no doctor, I have found a fun, casual way to help you relieve stress, strengthen your relationships with yourself and your partner, and keep you feeling good by introducing new things, or replacing old, overused (cough cough) things in your bedroom! This is what makes my job worthwhile.For more information you can visit my website www.kattzzmeow.com

Today's JBT Featured Sellers

Greenwillow Crafts

My shop on etsy is Greenwillow Crafts. My name is Ann and I live in North Carolina. I have had my shop on etsy since last August, but I have been sewing and hand embroidering since I was a little girl, making cards for 6 years now, and taking photographs for about 5 years. Since I believe you can show love by the time and care you put into making something, I have always given my family and friends gifts I've made. And in the past 10 years, I have sold locally in art and craft shows. Now that I'm retired, I have plenty of time to put into my crafts. It still thrills me when someone likes something I've made enough to buy it.






Today's JBT Featured Etsy Sellers

Did it Myself/happi commi press


Did it myself/happi commi press is an imaginative charming nod to the 40's, 50's, & 60's with a funky flare, while remaining unique. Theer is a little something for the whole family.













Michelle's Jewelry Designs

Hi, my name is Michelle and I've been creating handcrafted jewelry for three years. I've just recently decided to try to sell some pieces, rather than just making jewelry for myself and family and friends. I just opened shop on etsy on April 10th and am loving the experience so far.

I try to keep my pieces fairly simple, and when I'm creating something new, I always ask myself, "Would I wear this?" I'm particularly drawn to creating things with sterling silver (it's so shiny!) and contrasting beads and stones. I think that small, freshwater pearls make great accents, and you'll find them incorporated into many of my pieces.






















Welcome to cserpentDesigns - jewelry and "other things" designed and created by Susan!! I specialize in making a variety of gemstone and glass beaded and wired artisan jewelry and other beaded things. I have a large selection of high quality beads and findings which I use to make the jewelry. My early attempts at jewelry making taught me how short the lifetime is for gold and silver plated findings (at least when I wear them) so in most cases I will use only sterling silver or gold filled parts. I sell my jewelry at a local shop as well as through my Etsy store (http://cserpent.etsy.com) and my own website (http://www.cserpentDesigns.com). Come have a look and enjoy the sights! If you see something you like, but it isn't quite in the colors you want send me an email and I will gladly make something custom just for you!

Open Letter to Etsy Admin:)

Dear Admin,

Could we please have our forum where we exchange ideas w/eachother and post our personal information closed off to customers? I think a seperate chat room for customers that we could also post too would be more professional.

This would definitely promote a more positive etsy vibe for all customers, including the ones that are easily offended. Thus, giving etsians less to argue amongst eachother about.

I appreciate your consideration in this matter.

Thank you very much,

Tara

This weeks JBT item of the week is... Rainbow! So here's some great etsy artists picks for today:)





















Thoughts on Etsy Treasury

I feel this is a relevant post today, in regards to who we pick for the etsy treasuries we curate. This is written exactly as sent to me by http://www.localcolorist.etsy.com
Check out her shop, her cranes are amazing!


" I don't think Etsy is a place that will ever be fair to the satisfaction of many, in terms of the echelon of artistry, and whose works gets picked when and how. Some people are new to their craft and some people have been practicing for decades. Is there a higher level quality of art work made by a person who has worked on their art for many years? There is a great deal of difference and it shows..even digitally. As a member of CCCOE I will try to get treasuries into the future because I really love curating. Professionally I have curated for many years. Every other treasury I will dedicate a treasury to CCCOE artists. I would not have any fun at all curating if I just curated CCCOE artists when there are ETSY artists world wide. That would be torture for me. And no fun at all.

Art is one of the most competitive fields to play on there is. You have to develop a pretty tough hide to play on ETSY. You have to get tough to participate in any art arena that involves the public. Who gets picked to be in treasuries will never be fair. The choices are due to natural selection... legislating curatorial choices on ETSY to be any more fair than it already is, will never work, people would stop playing."
