MadArtjewelry

2009-10-22T22:52:00.000-07:00

The Virginia Woolf, Bloomsbury Necklace is truly one of those unique adornments that one comes across only once in their lifetime! This one of a kind necklace reminds me of indie films with a rich blend of dark elegance, modernism, and subtle hints, of steampunk, and shabby-chic. Be sure to check out Madelyn's other creations in her shop at MadArtjewelry.etsy.com for more jaw-dropping and gorgeously ornate must have's!

Hapa Girls

2009-08-21T17:21:00.000-07:00

Simple, subtle and organic are the words that come to mind when describing this artist's stunning creations, and the Cherry Blossom Bangle Bracelet is certainly one to fawn over. Check out Hapa Girls.etsy.com for more of her work.

Lipson Robotics

2009-06-08T19:47:00.000-07:00

I'd like to extend a warm welcome to Etsy newcomer, Sarah, and her sweet vintage shop, SweetLoveVintage.

Sarah just opened shop on April 10, 2009 and with 11 items in stock at the time of this post, already has a bit of something for every Vintage lover. My personal favorite is from the Toybox, an old toy metal Tom Thumb cash register in fire engine red. Her items include fantastic graphic decor, fab vintage fashion and footwear.

With the number of Etsy shops growing at breakneck speed, Sarah's shop is definitely one to watch. Visit her at SweetLoveVintage.etsy.com.

My Birch

2009-03-20T12:38:00.000-07:00

This Chocolate Covered Strawberries soap will taunt you with the mouth watering scent of chocolate and strawberries, which would really enhance a lavishly romantic night with that special someone! I also suggest to keep some edible chocolate covered strawberries on hand for after using this.
After delving into this sellers sudsy delicacies I was also surprised to find the ingredients in Birch Soaps are top quality with the inclusion of coconut oil and goats milk, both of which are amazing for your skin.
See this and more decadent washing delights at MyBirch.etsy.com

Shizen Designs

2009-03-17T16:12:00.000-07:00

Happy St. Patric's Day!
In honor of this Irish, green themed holiday I've spied this lovely Lucky clover necklace by Shizen Designs.
I really find this seller a bit enchanting with her simple silver nature inspired (shizen means nature in Japanese) designs. To top it off, with the purchase of her items a portion goes to charity for example with the Lucky clover necklace "10% of your purchase of this necklace will be donated to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The Society helps people affected by MS, like me, by funding cutting-edge research, driving change through advocacy, facilitating professional education, and providing programs and services that help people with MS and their families move their lives forward."

Choklit

2009-03-13T08:50:00.000-07:00

Atelier Choklit features an array of sumptuous handmade "Adornments for Tarts." Which leaves me to ask you, are you tart enough for such sensual silk dupioni adornments?
Well even if you are not, they will make a captivating addition to any outfit for an elegant night out on the town. Take a gander at her shop Choklit.Etsy.com for other sweet finds such as the Miele Cuff shown here.

Wunderkind

2009-03-12T12:16:00.000-07:00

This etsy seller is a self proclaimed "Maestri in the art of small and cute" and I have to agree with statement especially with her little kawaii spool dolls which can be seen here. I regret to say, her shop has been cleaned out of those (honestly I didn't do it!), but don't worry too much, as Wunderkind does take custom orders and has plenty of other cute and creative items to meet your Etsy Addicted needs such as the Lior Light Pull Kinder Doll depicted above. Pay her shop a visit at Wunderkind.etsy.com

Bean Town Handmades

2009-03-07T02:46:00.000-08:00

I'm such a sucker for cute pets, but with all the wedding planning my sister and I have been doing for her wedding, this ring bearer collar by Bean Town Handmades really caught my eye. This is just too cute!!!

Two Eggplants

2009-03-05T21:50:00.000-08:00

These popsicle soaps by Two Eggplants Company have such cute patterns in them! I have to admit though, that the listing seems unclear as to how many soaps you actually get. The pictures say "lots!" But the price says "one." Is this the greatest deal on soap for the season? I'm not sure Regardless, they are adorable and just a few of the cute soaps in this new shop!

Bomobob

2009-03-04T00:18:00.000-08:00

I saw this photo by Bomobob and smiled. The aged cathedral towers over you like a a ominous memory from your youth.

Vivika's Toy Art

2009-03-02T16:26:00.000-08:00

This cute pink bunny is just one of the cute creations at Vivika'sToy Art. This is not even close to the last bit of cuteness in her store though. That place is just swimming in adorableness and any lover of cute should be excited to hear about this seller!

Phydeaux

2009-02-24T23:45:00.000-08:00

I love this photo! This is the Les Bon Temps scarf by Phydeaux What a beautiful scarf and a cute way to display it. Here's a tidbit about the scarf from her listing:

"I hand knit this scarf using a variegated 100% kettle dyed merino wool and a strand of variegated fuschia mohair/silk and a strand of deep orange mohair/silk. The wool ranges from crimson to deepest blood red, soft plum to midnight purple, warm orange to deep flame, with bits of golden yellows and deep roses in between! The mohair/silk strands add depth and and subtle sheen, along with luxurious softness and a fuzzy halo."

Jodifrench

2009-01-27T14:00:00.000-08:00

>
This lovely Skeleton Anatomy Mosaic was created by the seller, Jodifrench. I love how the skeleton peeks out from behind the glass as if it is entombed behind a wall where it died. There's a small picture of a King playing card in the corner. Was this figure royalty once? A victim to a coup de'etat? Maybe it was just regular person senteced to death by the king?

Check out Sophie's Closet!

2008-11-21T19:55:00.000-08:00

I am really impressed with the Etsy shop Sophie's Closet. Not only does she have beautiful, handcrafted, delicate jewelry, but she is a communicative and personable seller.

Her items are designed mostly for children, and are kid-tested to be safe. She has adorable ID bracelets, ethereal necklaces, and darling anklets. One of my favorite items in her shop is the Sterling Floral-Pattern Cuff Bangle Bracelet for toddlers, pictured here. So dainty!

I recently purchased the Tinkle Belle jingle bell infant anklet in sterling silver, pictured here, for my 7 month old granddaughter Hannah (though I would LOVE to have one for my own 20-month-old daughter, Betsy!). I was truly impressed with the craftmanship. Toddlers can be tricky to keep track of! I love the fact that the tiny little bells jingle lightly at every step.

Besides being a great communicator, her shipping was fast; the item impeccable. Her shop is an Etsy gem that should get your attention! Stop by and see what she has in store for the little bitty person on your gift list this season!

Starlite Jewelry Designs

2008-11-19T08:42:00.000-08:00

I fell in love with this photo in the Flikr group sent in by Starlite Jewelry Designs immediately. I love these cute dangly earrings and the black background with the pale iridescent shell is just beautiful. Wish this seller luck - looks like she started her shop just this year!

SmileMonsters

2008-11-13T09:16:00.000-08:00

I've been really mesmerized by resin jewelry lately. As I was searching through resin rings, this one by SmileMonsters caught my attention and made me smile. (get it??)

SmileMonsters seems to specialize in pendants. She has whimsical ones, sparkly ones, and ones that look good enough to eat. If you find yourself admiring her jewelry as much as I do, and go ahead and purchase a piece, let her know in the "Note to seller" box that you saw her stuff here, and she'll throw in an additional surprise!

SmileMonsters has a blog of her own - check it out here.

Kung Fu Monkey Robot

2008-10-02T09:24:00.001-07:00

Last night I got to see the work of Kung Fu Monkey Robot and now I feel like I need to adopt one of her T-Huggers. They are so cute! The one pictured (like the ones I saw last night) has a pocket mouth. I love that! I can totally see this little guy on my son's bed holding his tooth waiting for the tooth fairy.

These guys are all made from recycled tshirts - making them even more loveable! Check out her store - and adopt a T-Hugger. I think my son might get one for Christmas this year... or maybe I'll keep it for myself.

Roxannazakka

2008-09-11T23:39:00.000-07:00

Oh my god isn't this bag adorable? It's called a Kawai Tummy Bag and is made by the seller, Roxannazakka. Unfortunately for American me, the size is listed in metric. "Approx. 12cm X 18cm." Fortunately for others not so familiar with metric, I've done the conversion to inches!
"Approx. 4.72 in x 7.09 in." Lovely!

DahliaSoleil

2008-09-09T12:59:00.000-07:00

After browsing thru my Faves on Etsy, I noticed I have more then 3 things "hearted" from DahliaSoleil's shop, and figured it was time I proclaim my love for her Etsy shop.

She makes the most AMAZING hats I've ever seen! I am in love with her Mary Jane series of hats, with a cute brim and either cameos or buttons on both sides. They come in types of color combos, or even solid colors. My fave right now is the Heather brown with Mushroom, perfect for the upcoming Fall season, and it goes with my entire wardrobe that consists of neutral tones!

What's neat about DahliaSoleil's is that she is now offering kid's sized hats too, so you and your kids can both be styling this year! Her shop also carries gloves, embroidered hats/tees/patches, beanies, and more.

Now, when one of my family members ask what I want for the Holidays, I can just tell them "a hat from DahliaSoleil", cause I'd be more then excited to receive any of them!

AurynDesign

2008-08-31T08:17:00.000-07:00

AurynDesign is a new favorite of mine! This shop is full of adorable kawaii, chiyogami, and even sumi-e art on pendants and jewelry. Many of these are original artworks too, which I definitely admire. It's nice to see that added personal touch instead of just japanese papers on everything all the time. These pendants here can all be found in her shop, and are made from original vector artwory by the seller!

BeautifulSoaps

2008-08-30T17:25:00.000-07:00

Soap
The spots on this Nag Champa Blue and White Soap by BeautifulSoaps caught my attention right away. Aren't they just adorable? I love the mix of colors and rough look to these soaps. The rest of the soaps in her soap are equally lovely as well, but I had to post this blue lovely because well... I love blue!

Back To School!

2008-08-03T22:46:00.001-07:00

I've spent this weekend preparing my son for his first day of Kindergarten. We will be out of town up until the day before his first day of school, so I have to have everything ready to go. I bought standard school supplies at the stores and I'm turning to Etsy to fill in the gaps. Here are some of my favorite finds!

kasaa

I love these little speech bubble stickers - perfect for labeling my son's items for school. He's a bit obsessive, so labeling will be key for us surviving the school year. I think these would also be great for leaving him little notes.

I'm also loving their small accordion file folder. This would be great for to keep on me for organizing all my supply and postage receipts!

TheScenicRoute

We bought my son the normal spiral notebooks - he chose sharks and polar bears... but I can't help but wish I had found this one first. He's such a fan of animals... and silly animals, all the better! While he hasn't seen the movie, he would definitely appreciate the Madagascar Game Notebook and I know it would make him smile every time he pulled it out.

MamaBethBling

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this idea. I'm going to order two of these - one for my son's jacket and one for my son's backpack. He still hasn't learned our phone numbers (we don't have a home phone - just cell phones) and I hate to put pressure on him to learn them... and who knows if he'd remember it in a stressful situation. I think it will be great to have the numbers in a place he knows where it will always be.

I love the rest of her store as well. I have a feeling that I'll be returning to her for the holidays as well.

BadAss Custom Decals

2008-07-26T11:21:00.000-07:00

Although BadAss has only been on Etsy since March, they ave been making their presence known via the Etsy Forums! This is how I "met" them and now am in love with their shop of decals!

I moved into a small one bedroom apartment recently, and have no wall art or anything on the walls, so these will definitely perk my place up! The reason I like their shop so much is the variety of wall decals I can choose from, plus the custom decals they can come up with is amazing! You have your choice of Muhammad Ali, Flowers & Trees, Quotes, and many many more! They even made a custom request I had in the forums for a fake window for my bathroom :)

lotionsandpotions

2008-07-21T22:08:00.000-07:00

Handmade soap is one of life's simple luxuries. It smells divine, makes your skin feel wonderful, and often looks good enough to eat. Such was the case with three bars I purchased during the latest round of EtsyPatrons "Make Someone's Day" event.

During Make Someone's Day, EtsyPatrons Team members search for new Etsy artists in hopes of making someone's day, often with their first Etsy sale. A thread is started in the Etsy forums; posts, purchases, days (and an occasional new EtsyPatron) are made.

Luckily for me, LotionsandPotions had just opened shop prior to our event. One look at her handcrafted, cold processed creations and I knew whose day was in for a lift. I made the purchase, posted (okay, bragged) about it to the other Day-Makers and was thrilled when three magnificent bars arrived at my door. All of my choices, Lemon Pucker, Pumpkin Apple Butter, and Lavender, are made with the highest quality oils and butters and are really amazing. We're lucky to have this new shop on Etsy! Check out the entire LotionsandPotions line at http://lotionsandpotions.etsy.com

This is Rene the Straw-beret created by sewsewcrafty. This cracks me up. Seriously. Go look at her shop for more adorable and fun creations!

CarolRoque

2008-07-08T13:35:00.000-07:00

This is a print of a digital painting by CarolRoque. The title is "Fear of Taking Control." I think this is something that people can all relate to at some point in their lives. They have the power to take control of a situation, but there is a lot of responsibility and pressure to be the one to press the button. It's interesting how the robot version of the man seems to be lower contrast above, almost like he is turning into a ghost of himself, but I'm not sure if that was intentional since his pants and shoes are so high contrast? It works. It puts the focus on the man's face and pose of handing over control, while the focus on the robot guy is on his legs, posed to show his uncertainty of such a request.

4th of July!

2008-07-04T09:50:00.001-07:00

Today I couldn't decide on just one thing to feature because I found two great items in the Flikr group!

This perpetual calender by QueenvannaCreations is quite appropriate for this important day. Check out her shop for more perpetual calenders and scrapbooking supplies!

If that's not enough patriotic goodness for you, how about this cute red white and blue scarf? This scarf was made by CricketsCreations. You'll find lots of scarves in her shop in a variety of colors.

Hope you have a happy 4th, America!

Articulations

2008-07-02T09:00:00.000-07:00

It has occurred to me lately that a handmade card is a truly wonderful thing. How impressive would it be to receive a greeting that has been carefully handcrafted, in this prefab age of Hallmark and e-cards?
With that in mind, I had my sights set on some new cards during last week's "Make Someone's Day" project, a weekly event hosted by EtsyPatrons. As luck would have it, I Pounced upon Articulations and this wonderful set of handmade Thank You cards. Not only are these beautiful and handmade, they come in a set of four different cards and are quite reasonably priced. You can never have too many Thank You cards, and I am thrilled with these. Check out the full Articulations line at http://articulations.etsy.com

HeatherRai

2008-06-29T11:42:00.000-07:00

Don't let this gorgeous bar of Kumquat soap fool you. HeatherRai's shop is full of a variety of items aside from bath and body including jewelry and even tie dyed items! The greatest thing though... she's having a summer sale right now. These pretty bars of soap come in interesting scents like Kumquat, Arabian Spice, Patchouli, Nag Champa, Cucumber Melon, Apricot Scrub, Star Anise, Opium Poppy, and Moonspice.

Sweeter Than Me

2008-06-28T14:37:00.000-07:00

I found Sweeter Than Me's flikr pool through the Etsy Addicts Flikr group, but stumbled upon this grayscale necklace that I thought was even more amazing than the one she had shared with the group! Luckily, she wrote back quickly to OK using this one for a feature instead. I love the gradient of the beads in this necklace and the way it is shown with a symmetrical or asymmetrical look.

PinkSpiderWebs

2008-06-26T22:21:00.000-07:00

Little Doe Brooch 14.50

neawear

2008-06-26T12:04:00.001-07:00

Neawear's shop has wonderfully creative pieces like this button necklace. I love the use of natural wood with the gunmetal chain. The combination of natural and manufactured work are combined in one interesting piece of jewelry!

"Industrial meets organic! :)" she says. Absolutely.

Tiny Cupcakes

2008-06-24T08:25:00.001-07:00

One of the greatest advantages to creating the Etsy Addicts Flikr Group, I think, is that it make it possible for me to find some amazingly cute things that I might have never seen on Etsy otherwise. Tiny Cupcakes' shop is the perfect example. This shop is run by two friends and is SOOOOOO CUTE! Their banner is adorable, the faux food is so cute I don't know if I should try to chomp it or hug it. This little whale tote bag just brings a smile to my face.

They've only had two sales so far, but I really think that number is going to rise once they gets a little more recognition. The quality of their work looks good, the shop branding looks good, and they're using tags and descriptions well, and the pricing seems very fair, perhaps even a little low. Just.. go see for yourself. =}

XO Handworks

2008-06-22T10:12:00.000-07:00

I've been so busy with Graduation, Family, and having my wisdom teeth removed, that I haven't had much time to update. I peeked in on the group this morning though, and was delighted by this cute little feather pendant by XO Handworks and just wanted to share it with you all. Cute, isn't it?

The TieLab aKa ToyBreaker

2008-06-15T12:50:00.000-07:00

In honor of Father's Day, I thought I'd feature TieLab's ties today!

Their etsy username is toybreaker, but the business name is Cyberoptix TieLab...

All ties are hand-screened by Bethany Shorb, which I thik is amazing considering their success!

If my Dad wore ties, these are afew I would most definately buy him for Father's Day!

The Book Imprint Ex Libris

The Meat Grinder

Recycled Creations - Joshuaandjulialee

2008-06-04T19:32:00.000-07:00

Lately, I've really been into recycling. It's a bit obsessive for me. My current obsession is t-shirts. And when I have an obsession... my entire family suffers with me. So, for Father's Day, I decided I was going to get my husband something fabulous made from recycled materials.

And then I stumbled on Joshuaandjulialee's shop on Etsy. My husband is an artist... so a journal would be perfect for him... and I've been admiring journals made from recycled goods for many months now. Part of what I love about these journals is that they use real books for some of them... which for me, makes them easier to match to the people I buy for.

For example, the Shaggy Baggy Elephant would be a fantastic gift for my mom as she used to read this book to me and my brother. And any memory with my brother is extra special.

I don't want to tell you which one I have marked for my husband... but it's a perfect match for him. You should check their shop out... I'm sure you will find something perfect for that someone special. Oh... and recycle. It's not just good for the environment, but it's very rewarding.

butterflymosaics

2008-05-30T14:15:00.001-07:00

These ridiculously adorable cupcake magnets were made by the seller butterflymosaics. If you love cute things and haven't checked out her shop or flikr yet, you are missing out. Not only does she have lots of bright and colorful magnets, but there's a super cute yorkie pup in her flikr photos. Way too much cuteness!!!

kathannah

2008-05-29T19:15:00.000-07:00

This painting by kathannah pretty much sums up today for me. I've been feeling down, and actually found a little dark injured bird in the backyard. I took it to a bird rescue. I hope it's ok...

You can find other interesting and very textured looking prints in her shop as well. Here's some text copied from her profile-

"My works hope to capture the elusiveness of sentiments, emotions, and dreams. And, to celebrate the relationships common to us all. I specialize in figurative expressionism and good old flights of fancy.

My artwork can be found at Victoria's Travels in the Design District of Solana Beach, California."

JudyStalus

2008-05-28T17:34:00.001-07:00

JudyStalus's shop is like a garden of photography and jewelry. I love the fine art prints of flowers, and was pleasantly surprised to find floral themed jewelry in her shop to create a nice little theme for the different kinds of media. My favorite though, is this Orchids in the Mist fine art print.

outofthepinksky

2008-05-27T18:15:00.000-07:00

I've been watching outofthepinksky's shop for a while now, but when I saw this cute little bird cage necklace, I just had to take a break from homework to share it with you all!!! Admit it. It's too cute to NOT make you smile!!! The rest of her shop is full of cute things like pins and cat butt earrings. If you don't know her shop yet, I definitely suggest having a look!

Candice Westburg

2008-05-19T20:24:00.000-07:00

Check this artist out! What first attracted me to her store, was her jewelry... mainly the pendants. I love the way she wraps each stone to really set it off. My favorite is the fluorite one.

Then, I started to explore her store... first, I noticed Candice Westburg is from Oregon (one of my favorite places to visit)... then I noticed she does some amazing work... that has nothing to do with jewelry! She makes hand sculpted jesters that are bright and colorful.

Of course, I love the whimsical nature of her sculptures. I love her mix of mediums and I love her use of color. It's all very striking.

I'm still a huge fan of that pendant though and am pondering it as my next purchase.

Tizzalicious!

2008-05-14T15:27:00.000-07:00

This cute doll was made by my friend and occasional Etsy Addicts contributer, Tizzalicious. As usual, I try to find something other than jewelry from time to time to share, and this hand sewn Matryoshka Doll just made me smile. Now you can all appreciate her lovely work as well as her generosity in being a contributer to Etsy Addicts!

Nakedtile

2008-05-13T01:49:00.001-07:00

It's just so... cute! This cute little plastic necklace is by the Etsy Seller Nakedtile. Isn't it just delightful? This seller is in Greece, but this necklace WITH shipping is only $13.50. Not bad, huh? So cute...

Metalheart Design

2008-05-12T10:51:00.000-07:00

Just had to quickly pop in and share this great pair of earrings by Metalheart Design that I saw in the Etsy Addicts Flikr Group. They are hand made earrings with oxidized sterling silver and vintage glass. Aren't these little cherry blossoms just adorable???

andyecrafts

2008-05-07T12:20:00.000-07:00

Andyecrafts creates wonderful scrapbooks out of natural materials. Here's part of what she had to say! The original text was too large to post. =}

"My trip to Bali came to me as a gift from God - and I understood later, why I landed there. I do not fly easily, although I love to travel, nor do I handle (the many) inoculations gracefully. I boarded the flights fearlessly, and landed almost 2 days later - and it all made sense. I learned how towns share rice and water - how nothing is wasted and everything is a gift. A thank you was heartfelt. People held many jobs, so that they could earn enough to educate their children. Old world values of respect. Respect one another. Treat friends and strangers alike, as family.
Having attended the first Earth Day celebration, and being someone who each year tries to find some small personal way to help save the earth - the experience of the Balinese craftsman who shared his home and trade with me became a defining point for my new incarnation - a mission to create something new that was old, that I could feel good about, and that did not waste or destroy or pose eventual threat to the world. And, as a bonus, by partnering with the Balinese family by purchasing my materials from the village - I am able to help support the care of their elderly and the education of their children.
Since my return, I am in touch with my new Balinese "family" and have been empowered by my experience. My albums have brought me great happiness, both in what I give and what I get. The karma is right, and at this time of my life I feel I have found the path I want to follow.

In my brief experience selling my craft journals and albums on Etsy - it has been my great pleasure to meet people who support art and feel, as I do, that they are getting more than they give by meeting kindred spirits who share their love of creativity. For me - the personal satisfaction of sharing my experience and meeting people from around the world enhances my world and my art. Thank you ETSY - for being there for people like me! And thank you - ETSY Addicts - for having an addiction to interesting and original art, made by persons and not machines - for it is you that supports the left-handed Leos of the world who want to enhance the world by sharing a piece of ourselves.
~regards, and Thanks - Andye"

Simply U Boutique

2008-05-06T18:31:00.000-07:00

These past few weeks, as I've been browsing, I seem to end up on this site a lot. It's obvious that I really like her jewelry... I just don't wear jewelry. So, I thought I'd share her site with those that do.

The ones where she incorporates photo charms definitely appeal to the mom in me. I enjoy having my kids with me every second (I can't really get away from it)... it'd be nice to have something where I could wear them every second without it being them hanging from me.

But, I also like her other jewelry. I had a hard time picking just one photo for this little feature, so I went with two instead. I have her store marked as a favorite... do you?

Marmar

2008-04-30T10:04:00.000-07:00

Have you seen this store before? Marmar is one of my favorite stores to browse. I bought one of his pendants for my niece at Christmas time (orbit girl pictured to the left). They are soooo stinkin' cute!

Since my purchase, he has come out with a few new designs. I'm really loving Little Dino. I have a huge dinosaur fan in the house and he's quickly converting us all to dino lovers. I also love Prince - no not the singer/artist/whatever he's calling himself - I'm talking about the cute little lion!

I love his introduction to his store "When I was a boy I had a recurring dream that I could fly. Having an Etsy shop makes me feel like that again." Check out his store. I highly recommend his wonderful and charming creations.

Slides on Etsy

2008-04-28T22:34:00.000-07:00

Remember slides? Okay, maybe people still use them for their intended purpose, but I haven't seen them since I a little girl. I loved looking through the slides my dad had from my younger years. Does that date me? Anyhow, look at the great things people are doing with those little gems! Click on any photo to be taken directly to the store and listing.

The chandelier is my favorite. Now that's a conversation piece!

Writer needed!

2008-04-28T12:53:00.000-07:00

Anyone out there love finding some great new sellers on Etsy to feature them? I enjoy it. It's fun, it's informative, and there's lots of great people out there. This blog was originally intended to be a sharing of all things Etsy by the community, for the community. Unfortunately, we still do not have many active writers and it is mostly all on me to update every day. As you may have noticed, that's not going so well lately. I'm incredibly busy getting my portfolio ready for graduation. If anyone would like to help out to keep the love going here on Etsy Addicts, please do convo me and I will add you. You can share your favorite items and sellers with the rest of the community easily now with the Flikr group as well. =}

I'm sorry that I am so busy lately. I'll be right back up here and posting whenever I get time!

Mermaid Sparkle

2008-04-26T09:11:00.000-07:00

Grocery shopping anyone?

I love this Etsy seller, MermaidSparkle site. I just found it this morning and look forward to buying some tea bags and cookies for my daughter and her tea parties. My favorite, by far though, is the supermarket bag. How cool is that??? I can see my son or daugher toting that thing around everywhere.

There are plenty of places on Etsy where you can find play food... but this one particularly stood out to me. I love the simple design and the details. I love her use of pinking sheers for texture. And I love how bright and colorful all the food is!

I can't think of any child (or adult) that wouldn't love to own some of this delicious looking food.

Freeforged

2008-04-22T00:38:00.001-07:00

These earrings by Freeforged are so modern and cute. They are perfectly offset by the nice gray background. I took a peek at Freeforged's shop and was immediately impressed. The designs are very sleek and her jewelry comes gift packaged already. She doesn't have many sales in this shop... yet. She has a Bachelors degree in Metalsmithing and Jewelry though. No wonder her work is so nice!

AlbinaRose

2008-04-20T01:02:00.000-07:00

I am completely amazed by the amount of work and detail that was put into this little cuff by AlbinaRose. This is a combination of bead work and crochet that comes together into one beautiful Victorian style bracelet. And the rest of her shop? Every bit as impressive.

Starfish Designs

2008-04-18T12:23:00.001-07:00

This adorable bag was made by the new Etsy seller, Starfish Designs. I wanted to bring a little variety to the features since we have had so much jewelry lately. With all you plentiful jewelry sellers out there, it's no surprise. While many of those designs are beautiful, we must not forget the other creations out there on Etsy. What I like about this purse is the detail that went into it, combining coordinating fabrics rather than using just one - I love the accent colored zipper. It's much more bright and fun than a simple black or white zipper would have been. For the grand opening of this shop, there is also free shipping until May 17th! What's not to love?

Beads in the Belfry

2008-04-16T11:25:00.001-07:00

I've admired her work for quite a while now, and just had to share this necklace by Beadsinthebelfry. Isn't it so cute? She makes all kinds of beautiful jewelry like wire trees, little baskets, birdies, and wire swirls. I've avoided featuring her for a while to be honest because I consider her a friend and was worried about being biased. I'm sure i'm not the only one that thinks her work is gorgeous though... just look at that!

Create It Cottage

2008-04-15T17:34:00.000-07:00

This adorable tree adorns a hand sewn pin cushion made by createitcottage. The clean lines, even stitching, and whimsical leaf-balls make this a really beautiful and useful work of art. There are other fun little pincushions and things in this shop too like a fall tree, birdies, and even felt wallets and keychains!

Treasury: V is for Vespa

2008-04-11T01:38:00.000-07:00

I haven't had any luck getting a real treasury lately, as it drops down to 222 whenever I'm asleep it seems. So I made this V is for Vespa Treasury West yesterday.

This treasury includes the following products & artists:

Motor Scooter Pendant by Madison Craft Studio
Blue Cycle by Ann Wilkinson'
Ciao Bella Mod Vespa Card by Pepperina Press
Vespa Target Pink Blue Linocut by Arctic Cobalt
Onesie Handpainted Scooter by Baganus
Scooter Recycled Glass Soap Dispenser by Bread And Badger
Lime Vespa Print by Annechovie
Emma and Siggie by Vol25
Pink Vespa Matchbook Cover Art by Colorfly Studio
Black Fleece Scarf With Scooter Applique by Polly Scoots
Vespa Vinyl Toilet Graphic by Vital
Vera Vespa by Keary Beary

Enjoy!

Heidi's Handmades

2008-04-08T23:51:00.000-07:00

This is a feature that I can speak about from personal experience. Heidi from Heidi's Handmades was friendly from beginning to end. She was incredibly patient with my struggle to choose which scent I wanted for her body butter and patient about waiting for feedback even though it took me weeks to get back to her because I was away from home and couldn't check my mail. I can tell you this much though - her lotion rocks. The scent is fresh and clean and not overpowering, and the body butter and hand & body cream are both nice and moisturizing even on my super dry skin. Here's a little more info about Heidi: "I took a soapmaking class in 2000 and loved the endless possibilities of making soaps! Since then I have had 3 children and have made soaps with them. I am finally at a point where I can have my own little home business. I love selling on etsy because it is just the right pace for me right now, and I can take a break when I need to. My family still comes first but my etsy shop is an extra special bonus in my life right now. :)"

LilBlackDog

2008-04-02T21:18:00.001-07:00

This cute felt cake was made by lilblackdog. It's made up of 8 individual slices and just so adorable and yummy looking! It's a steal at only $36. I sure hope she gets some more sales because her hand stitched felt work is adorable.

Urban Designs

2008-04-01T20:40:00.000-07:00

These earrings were made by the seller, Urban Designs. I love Labradorite, and these earrings are so pretty! They're also only $15 which is a steal with Labradorite drops and all of that Sterling Silver wire. Urban Designs is a pretty new shop on Etsy and has no items sold yet somehow. Her shop has some really cute jewelry in it!!!

Kinichi River

2008-03-30T21:36:00.001-07:00

This cute little sock buddy by Kinichi River cracked me up as soon as I saw it. Look at that face!!! Isn't it adorable? This is "Dancy, a friend made from socks." I'm not normally into sock toys, but this guy stood out. That red thing behind him by the way is his tail.

She Makes Cute Stuff

2008-03-29T08:01:00.000-07:00

I love comic books. They are always a fun, entertaining, quick read. Not only that, they remind me of my childhood... like the old Batman show. Imakecutestuff makes the most fantastic charms! My favorite is the KAPOW! I would so own one of these if it wasn't for the fact that my little one loves to choke me with my necklaces.

Marlo also has several other fun ones such as BIFF, BANG, and SHAZAM. In addition to these cool necklaces - she also makes great totes! I've seen them in person and they are fantastic! They fold into themselves for easy storage. They are such big sellers... she doesn't currently have any in her store. But watch for them!

And to top it off... today is Marlo's birthday! Happy Birthday Marlo from one of your many admirers.

Designed With Glass

2008-03-28T22:21:00.001-07:00

Is this memo holder bye Designed With Glass not absolutely stunning? I loved it as soon as I saw it. I just recently wrote a big essay on Louis Comfort Tiffany (the guy that designed Tiffany lamps in case you didn't know!) and this memo holder reminds me of his work. The glass colors chosen are beautiful and the combination of straight lines and organic curves reminds me of that Art Nouveau style a little. All around - gorgeous.

Etsy Addicts Flikr group!

2008-03-27T22:28:00.001-07:00

We now have a Flikr group for those of you who would like to be featured. Please feel free to join, but remember to read the rules! Here are some of my favorites so far - there were so many good ones!

This first one is by Body Language Soaps. It is Jasmine sugar scrub. Doesn't it look gorgeous?

Next is a beautiful mobile by Leah's Glass Creations. I love this photo, and what a beautiful mobile! Well done, Leah.
Among all the beautiful bright and happy things uploaded today, this amazing dark and moody photo by smacshop really stood out to me. It's so eerie, I love it.
Last of all, I just had to share these hilarious felt hearts by patchwork phoenix. Hearts in rainbow colors and huggable? Yea. Awesome.

Beepbeephello

2008-03-26T23:59:00.000-07:00

Here's a little something for the geeks out there - circuitboard earrings! These earrings were made by beepbeephello and are only $6. Super!

A Taste of Heaven...

2008-03-25T19:19:00.000-07:00

So I thought I'd switch things up and feature a shop full of edible goodies....

Let me introduce you to DoubleDippedSweets. Based out of Salt Lake City, and only a member of Etsy since March 2008, but have been a business since February 2007!

DoubleDipped carries everything from candy apples, dipped pretzels, gift baskets, and more!

I'm completely drooling over the Cookies and Creme Caramel Popcorn, and the Triple Indulgence Caramel Apple.

Mmmm.... off to drool some more!

Bode 22

2008-03-23T13:12:00.001-07:00

This is another seller I've seen around the Etsy Forums; Bode22. She makes some really nice clocks, but this floating frame really stood out to me. It's very similar in concept to my final project in Color Theory, but still very different. I love the silhouette and contrast of this piece. Here is what she had to say about it:

"Well... The staple items of my shop are clocks. However, I like to dabble with other things, like this piece, which is the first in a line of "floating frames." I have one more floating frame posted (a chandelier design) and more on the way.

The basic idea for this piece came to me one night when I couldn't sleep. However, once I got working on it, I surprised myself. I was surprised by the dimension that was created by attaching the vinyl and paper to both the front and the back of the glass. It was still only 2D, but the layering added a neat effect that I hadn't originally intended.

The textured glass, clean black frame, and simple (hand drawn and cut) design makes this a piece that I am pretty proud of."

Mimisayshi

2008-03-21T21:48:00.000-07:00

Aren't these birdies just adorable? Aside from being rediculously cute though, they're actually functional. These little birds were started by Mimisayshi to keep her daughter's hair out of her eyes when she was a baby. I'm not a baby, but I still find these little birdies irresistable! The best part... they're only $5. I'm sure it won't be long until she gets more sales. Right now she's only had 11!

2008-03-16T16:00:00.001-07:00

I came across this awesome Etsy shop and just had to share! Tsai-Fi has a great collection of prints, tees, mirrors, bags, and much much more. I am totally drooling over the Best Night Ever print and the Morning After print, but can't forget the Last Call mirror also....Feel free to browse the shop and check out the other great items available :)

MBOI

2008-03-15T14:09:00.000-07:00

I found this lovely seller while browsing the forums and was pleasantly surprised by the nice photography and lovely chainmail work. The biggest surprise... only 13 sales! This is definitely a seller that deserves a little more exposure. Here's what Kimberly of MBOI had to say: "I'm a mother of two boys and recently returned to college. Jewelry is how I recoup my sanity at the end of the day. Chainmaille is so methodical (one ring, another ring, another ring) that it help my mind turn off. My favorite period is the midevil period and the strong look of armour...since armour is a limited market-chainmaille jewelry is what I love!

This pendant came from a diamond insignia on a midevil shield. The interlocking squares caught my eye and I had to do something with it...there you have it...my take on midevil shields. I take a lot of inspiration from midevil armour and make them into art that is wearable today."

Ingeniouslycreative

2008-03-13T00:00:00.000-07:00

Here is another seller chosen by MadArtjewelry! Ingeniouslycreative not only has unusually interesting pieces, her ramblings in the descriptions are pretty funny! Here is the description for this pendant - "I have to say, you won't find another one of these around anytime soon!!! This one was born out of my wondering what to do with this lovely old key I bought in London last year.

You see, there was an ancient looking curio shop on the way to my destination and I just couldn't help myself...I had to go in!!! And I found this charming little key and wanted to build a brooch around it.

This one of a kind brooch or pin is truly Steampunk...it is embellished with a very vintage watch face and brass clock key and will look absolutey Steampunky on your jacket or sweater or whatever!"

PinkFlamingo61

2008-03-10T18:23:00.000-07:00

This featured seller was chosen by MadArtjewelry. Thankfully, PinkFlamingo61 was happy to be featured! Here's what she had to say about her craft: "I've been doing steampunk jewelry for several years. I collect old junk with a particular attachment for old watches. I love the gears and faces of old pocket watches. My favorite are old woman's pocket watches. They are usually more ornate and delicate. I'm a professional artist and fine arts teacher. I teach painting, mixed media and drawing, but I love making assemblages, which has evolved into making jewelry. There is only so much room in my house so the jewelry fits better. I get really excited when someone buys it not for the money, which is a bonus, but because I feel like someone out there "gets it".
I use old jewelry and found junk, things other people discard to make up my assemblage jewelry. Hunting for the parts and coming up with new and unique jewelry is what fascinates me. I'm obsessive about finding just the right pieces. Some I save for years and others are made up that day. I'm surrounded by treasures, if only my family could agree!"

Hi Tree

2008-03-09T19:09:00.000-07:00

As far as I can gather, hitree received it's name from the seller's 3 year old daughter ... who says hi to every tree she sees. Is that flippin' adorable or what???

Hitree has wonderfully unique tree plushies. They are my latest addiction! You can get the ultra adorable oak tree, as depicted in the picture, or treat yourself to a sequoia - and they all come in multiple sizes! Know a little treehugger? Hitree has the perfect shirt! She also has pins, rings and even leg warmers. :)

This seller is currently raising funds so she can participate in a craft show. For an EXTREMELY limited time (i.e. today only - 3/9/08), her big trees have been reduced by $10. How can you pass that up?!?

Pounce!

2008-03-08T21:21:00.000-08:00

I love the Pounce feature on Etsy. I love to see what new artists are joining the Etsy community. I had a little extra time tonight on the internet and decided to browse Etsy for a while.

Look what I found! I love Telepathy and her cool hats! She only has three posted so far... but I'm sure there are good things in the horizon for this shop! I love to see things recycled in new and exciting ways. Telepathy's hats look warm and stylish. I'd love to add one of her hats to my wardrobe. This one, in particular, would go with just about anything!

This shop is so new, it doesn't even have an avatar, but it's worth checking out. And while you are at it, check out the Pounce feature on Etsy. So much fun!

A Day Late

2008-03-03T13:20:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite childhood memories was reading Fox in Socks. I loved Dr Suess and his fun, imaginative books. My son's favorite book was My Many Colored Days.

So, I thought I'd share my favorite Dr Suess inspired item on Etsy. Inspired by One Fish, Two Fish... these cute little fishies are stuffed and safe for kids of all ages - yep, even you!

Check out Scarywhitegirl's shop. She has a whole range of items for all ages. I'm a huge fan of her hats. My household owns a total of five of them! I've also been eyeing her arm warmers... they look fabulous!

Do you have a favorite Dr Suess book too?

Time for Spring

2008-03-01T09:39:00.000-08:00

So, in honor of it being March 1st and all.. I thought I'd share a great find about Spring:)

Now, I know Spring isn't until a few more weeks, but hey..a girl can hope!

The bowls by lgbrinkley are wonderful and are so nice and simplistic that they would be great for any decor. The particular one(s) that I chose are the "Sprout. Bloom. Grow. Dish Set".

This set consists of three bowls, each with a different flowerdesign on them.

I love this shop, her stuff is awesome, and when I finally have a place of my own I am SO ordering from her:)

It's a Leap Year!

2008-02-29T11:22:00.000-08:00

And in honor of this extra day, I've decided to show off some of my favorite little leapers on Etsy!

Moody Treasury

2008-02-26T12:13:00.001-08:00

I saw this Moody treasury by Chrysdesignsjewelry while browsing the forums and loved it right away. I contacted her to see if I could feature this treasury, so here it is!

Lovely Lilacs

2008-02-26T09:16:00.000-08:00

My treasury was inspired by memories of spending time with my grandmother and her favorite springtime destination, the Lilac Festival on Mackinac Island. As a native Michiganian, I had the good fortune of spending several seasons on Mackinac Island and enjoying some the most beautiful lilac blooms, a spot of tea at the Grand Hotel and, of course, more fudge than should be legal.
Enjoy with me my own little Lilac Festival.

Deep In The Forest

2008-02-26T03:23:00.000-08:00

I finally managed to get a treasury again! I kept meaning to be there when the slot opened all week, but I kept forgetting to check back! I didn't this time though, so you can come check out my "Deep In The Forest" treasury here.

The items and artists I featured this time are:

White Tail Deer Brooch by katebroughton
Amigurumi Mama and Baby Owl Pattern by Pepika
Little Brown Deer Hair Clips by nettiepete
Owl Canvas by stitchella
The Woods Are Lovely, Dark & Deep Tags by Amalia Mae Paper Goods
Centaur In A Field Of Mushrooms Pocket Mirror by Faff Creations

Asian Inspiration

2008-02-24T23:26:00.000-08:00

These lovely earrings were created in the Japanese Chainmaille Weave. I have seen earrings like this around Etsy before, but I had not seen this seller, ChainFlower, before! Lovely earrings though, don't you think? ChainFlower has currently only sold 30 items.

Also to go with the Asian theme, here are a couple of other fun find by sellers who have not yet hit it big. Here's an interesting wooden cut out image of the legendary Bruce Lee. This was created by the scroll saw artist, Tommy, of londonwoodwork. As of right now, Tommy has only sold 12 pieces. Maybe Etsy people just don't know about this type of art yet?
This cute blue windowed card was created by carolinesoerdesigns. I couldn't help but post this one... my favorite color is blue after all, and I love the simple style of this. The details are lovely, but not overbearing. This shop has only sold 9 items so far!

Brilliant Beads

2008-02-22T12:32:00.000-08:00

I'm a HUGE SUCKER for bright colors, utilitarian items and personal antidotes. With Brilliant Beads, you get it all! I was first attracted to this fabulous multicolored watch. It's so hard to say no to a watch ... for me, I can always think of a bunch of reasons to purchase a time piece. For example, punctuality. Being able to tell others what the time is. Looking "put together". Accessorizing.

Brilliant Beads is more than just a pretty watch. All of her items are colorful and many of them are like nothing else I've seen on etsy. She has a lovely collection of necklaces, one of which would go very nicely with the watch, bracelets, and earrings. I particularly like this unique twist on your typical chandelier earring.

As if all of this wasn't enough, Brilliant Beads is currently offering FREE SHIPPING! She was just hit with a new tuition bill, and needs to raise some cash to pay it off. Soooo, if you buy one of her beautiful, unique and colorful jewelry pieces, you will be supporting a relatively new seller, the pursuit of higher education, and, of course, homemade items!

Tantrums by katesy

2008-02-20T16:24:00.000-08:00

The official tag lines for this store are: (1) Kate's Art from the Purple Fiddle Coffeehouse and (2) Wearable Art for the Headstrong Folk. I would add a third, unofficial one: Items you never knew you absolutely had to have. The store is called Tantrums and the creator is katesy. Her stuff is adorable, good for the environment, reasonably priced, and all one of a kind. Not to mention she offers fabulous colors ... in case you're attracted to that sort of thing ... like, um, me ... :)

I am now the proud owner of this ultra-cute octopus water bottle cozy. This cozy was featured in a treasury I made about green-conscious items. On the sly, a friend bought it for me and had it shipped to my home.* Happy early birthday to me, indeed! As I've found is often the case with etsy items, the cozy is even better in person. My favorite part is the artistic liberty katesy took with the number of legs and the uneven eyeballs.

katesy makes a lot of really great and unique items. For those who dig octopuses, she has another great water bottle cozy and a gadget bag. She has a rather large selection of art bags, little pouches, and even jewelry. The absolute best part is that katesy offers a lot of green items, a lot of utilitarian-type items (you never knew you needed a pouch for your tea bags, did you?), and a lot of really fun things in between. In fact, after checking out her shop, I bet anyone would find several things they never knew they absolutely had to have. Hence the super awesome, unofficial tag line :)

Oh, and I should probably mention that on top of making great items for etsy, katesy runs a successful coffee shop, home schools her children, and provides phenomenal customer service. Can a seller get any more awesome?!?

* In case you were wondering, my "friend" really is a friend. On my honor, it wasn't me.

Melissahappystuff!

2008-02-18T22:30:00.000-08:00

I love Etsy. I love browsing Etsy, I love buying Etsy, I love selling on Etsy. I also love to find inspiration on Etsy. I often steer clear of anything that resembles my own stuff as I like my ideas to stay original, but I love browsing jewelry, felted items (I love felting!) and original artwork. I always find it inspiring when I come across something I've never seen before. Tonight, I found just that. Melissahappystuff is my new favorite Etsy shop.

I find Melissa's items fresh, original and fun. I love that combination! Her necklaces are what caught my eye... they are hot! Original, beautifully made and reasonably priced. In addition to these beautiful crocheted necklaces, she has a variety of handbags, scarves, hats and more! You really should check her out!

After reading her profile, I'm an even bigger fan. She says, "My creations are meant to lift your mood, as they do my own while I am making them." How cool is that!

LaPetitFleur

2008-02-18T12:29:00.000-08:00

Here's a new buyer you just have to see, LaPetitFleur! She has been on Etsy as a buyer for about a year, but just opened her shop in January. Right now, she has only made 3 sales, but just look at this gorgeous pendant! I saw it in her avatar and searched the shop for it but did not see it there, so it was my poking and prodding that prompted her to finally list it in her store. Something this cool and handmade SHOULD be up after all!!!

Hey I am here!!!

2008-02-17T14:42:00.000-08:00

I am here KP! This is a test to see if this works!!!

TheTinyFig

2008-02-17T00:46:00.001-08:00

I'm one happy customer! I had a bit of a spending spree this month and these charms were a part of it. I was SO giddy when I saw that envelope. These are the cute pendants I ordered from TheTinyFig. Aren't they so dainty and kawaii? They were packaged in hand made boxes and cuter in person than they were in her shop!

The item that started this all?

I spoil my dog too much. He has so many collars... black studded, red glitter, blue with rhinestones, blue with his name in rhinestones, halloween... It's silly. So here I am browsing Etsy when I see a blue cupcake collar and leash set by Yuppie Puppie!!! NO! Must not do it!!! Must not buy ANOTHER collar for the doggy! ={
