I was actually beginning to think it would never happen.</p>
<p>my new shop is finally up! <a href="http://whiletheyplay.etsy.com/"><span style="font-style: italic;">while they play</span>&#8216;s </a>World Premiere!<br />I am so giddy right now, it&#8217;s just not even funny. I am brimming, head to toe!</p>
<p>when I finally finished setting up shop (literally!), I sat back and looked at the projects that I so lovingly labored away on.<br />and it&#8217;s almost too hard to let them go. but that would defeat the whole purpose of this thing, now wouldn&#8217;t it!</p>
<p>I have about 6 Work&#8217;s In Progress at the moment and as soon as I finish them up I will have an update over at the shop and I &#8216;ll give you a heads-up here.</p>
<p>to celebrate this momentous occasion, I&#8217;m offering all of you, my faithful readers, a <span style="font-weight: bold;">20%</span> discount on <span style="font-style: italic;">anything</span> in my shop!<br />just enter the code: CELEBRATE in the &#8220;message to seller&#8221; box and wait for a revised invoice with the discounted price before paying.<br />**this special discount will expire at the first of the year! <img src='http://whiletheyplay.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>and <a href="http://whiletheyplay.blogspot.com/2007/10/congratulations-sarah.html">as promised</a>, I am also giving away one of my bags to celebrate the shop opening!</p>
