0 Meet My Newest Advertiser: SewZinski

I'm happy to offer a belated welcome to my newest advertiser, SewZinski. 


SewZinski's Etsy shop is full of eco-friendly hand painted ceramics, hand painted travel mugs, embroidery, and accessories. Sarah's work is inspired by things around her, nature, pop culture, texture and color. She will also collaborate with customers to make custom hand painted ceramics, embroidery, and accessories. My favorite items include these scallop coasters and this chevron mug.

6 Whittled Whale

This great whale is from Ready for the House. And I love it.


I quote: "Weekend whittling, clear grain Douglas Fir."


Shall I add whittle a whale to my life to do list?  I don't know, I'm really phobic about cutting myself...hmmm.  Maybe I need a boyfriend who can whittle...I'll add that to my required boyfriend characteristics.

Introducing...STOCKING STUFFERS!

I am halfway through updating the Black.White.Yellow Etsy Shop with fantastic stocking stuffers. Bows and hairtie sets perfect for holiday gifting. I've combined the hair ties for great savings. All items in the shop are $6 or less, so they won't break the bank!

0 Lulu Bazaar Etsy Shop

Looking for great gifts? Check out the Lulu Bazaar Etsy Shop. This baby beanie with knit flower is seriously the softest thing I have ever felt. If you buy from her shop not only are you supporting the handmade nation, but also a money-less college student {remember when you were one of those?} Help a sister out {literally, my sister :)}. She can knit ridiculously fast if you have a custom request.
