Themed Blog & Shop Hop - May Flowers


WELCOME to the third
"Themed Blog & Shop Hop"
May 16th 2012!
I'm so glad that you stopped by!


For those of you who are not familiar with "Hops" (a.k.a. Linky party) - a Blog Hop &/or Shop Hop is an event where viewers/followers can upload links onto my blog......Links to their items in their Etsy shops or links to their Blogs. And then we can "hop" from blog to blog or shop to shop.


The theme this month is:
"May Flowers"
Anything having to do with flowers - any kind of flower.

So, that means if you have an item in your shop that has anything to do with "Flowers" - or - if you have a Flower blog post - anything that remotely touches this topic - then please share it with us.



Although I would love it if everyone joined my blog or became followers of my blog - that is not a requirement to participate in this "Hop". All I ask is that you keep your submissions decent - no offensive content please.

Well, actually there is a second rule:
only 2 submissions per person please.




If you do not have a blog or a shop then please still stop by and take a digital walk through our virtual mall.


I will be having a "Themed Blog & Shop Hop" once a month - the middle of each month. Next month's hop will be on:
JUNE 15th, 2012

ENJOY!!

IMPORTANT:  There is still a problem linking up a picture from Etsy - If it's not working for you then please choose the "GENERIC" thumbnail option - your link will still work but the picture will be the "linky" logo (please make sure you give it a title - that WILL show up).  This will be like mystery shopping (just until the problem is fixed - I have contacted "linky tools"

To Etsy shop owners - please only upload links directly to the items that you would like to share with us - not a link to your entire shop - Thanks.

To Blog writers - you may submit any post that fits into the theme - it can be an old post from many months ago (it does Not have to be a recent post). Also, please submit the link directly to the post and Not a link to your homepage - Thank you!

I will be "tweeting" about the submissions throughout the week to come and if there are enough submissions I will be making an Etsy treasury also.

  1. Yay! I'm on board Angie. Can I copy your blog hop banner in the sidebar and add to my blog sidebar? Or is there a banner code somewhere else? Now do I vote for 1 person, or more? Do I have until the closing date to vote? Thanks.

    BTW, I really like how you have your hop set up, the title and the guidelines. I'd like to start hosting some themed ones too. Do I just join the LinkyTools site?

    Also, I'm not at Etsy, so if that is a requirement to be in your hops, I'll humbly bow out, but still follow you.

    1. Great - I'm so glad that you can join us! Yes, you can copy the hop banner - I highlighted & copied the picture but I will check into an HTML code if you prefer.
      You can "like" more than 1 person and yes you have until the closing date (May 31st).
      Thanks - I'm glad you like it - Yes "Linky Tools" is the provider (click on "Powered by Linky Tools" to the right of the submission area).
      NO - you do NOT have to be in Etsy or have a shop to be in this hop --Everyone is welcome.j
      Thanks so much!

  6. Angie- Thanks for your sweet comment on my Spoon Party and following! I need to peruse my blog for flower posts and then come back and join your party! What fun!

  7. This is really fun Angie, though I have hardly no time for extra stuff. There are various configurations of hops I see. I joined one by Mary C. Nasser, Art Blog Hop, that is static, no deadline. I'm #334 of 345 so far, probably more now. All the types of hops have their uses. I do like your themed and timed hop for the light challenge that it provides. Have a nice evening.
