The Joy of Etsy.com

While setting up shop on Etsy.com, I found myself finding other amazing shops.  Needless to say, I went shopping!  There are so many creative, unique, beautiful, and useful things right at your fingertips.  Even if you know you don't need it, it may be something too cute to pass up!  One good thing about buying things off of Etsy?  It is like Christmas morning or your birthday when you get something in the mail!  Here are a few of the items that I just had to buy!

I fell in LOVE with this necklace online and loved it even more once I got it in the mail! It is simple, yet elegant in a way.  It also reminds me of the movie P.S. I Love You (which is one of my favorites).  This came from the shop, Patricia Jewelry.  I am already eyeing other great pieces of art in this Etsy shop!







If you haven't heard already, I am a huge fan of owls.  They are my FAVE!  When I ran across these mini note cards, I knew I had to have them.  Little Sketchy Cards is the shop in which these adorable cards belong to.  I got them in the mail last week, and I still haven't used them yet.  They are too cute that I want to use them for just the right thing!

A little information from the shop:
"Cards are printed with an inkjet printer on a bright white cardstock note card. The owls started out as a pencil drawing that was outlined in Sharpie marker and then scanned to make a digital image."

How cool is that?


Being a Kindergarten teacher, I had my kiddos in mind on this purchase!  I had the pleasure to receive help from a wonderful shop, Feisty Owl Studio.  Being new to Etsy, I need all the help that I can get.  Feisty Owl Studio came through with flying colors.  That was when I was introduced to her vast amount of "curious gifts".  And yes, they are just as fun to wear as they look!  If anything else, you will be dealing with a wonderful, pleasant, and kind creator of Feisty Owl Studio!  Just look at her name: "Hi, I'm Tracesea (which is pronounced like 'Tracy' but just spelled funny"



I have not received these yet, but I can't wait!!!  Believe me, I crossed my fingers and toes they would be in the mail today.  I have no idea what I am going to use these adorable owls for, but rest assure, they will be put to good use!  Go check out this shop!!  They came from The Paige Spot.  Need something creative, extra sparkle, that last finishing touch?  This is the place to look!  And get this. . she accepts custom orders!!  Her main goal?   ". . .To help out anyone who either does not have the time to scrapbook or make any type of paper crafts."


 
Well, instead of buying, I better get busy!  I have truly enjoyed receiving these little bundles of joy in my mailbox throughout the week!  Take the time and go check them out!  You don't have to have a shop on Etsy to purchase.  Everyone is welcome!  While your at it.. would it hurt to stop by Lilly Lu's Collection also??

Have a wonderful night my dear friends!. . .Elizabeth
