Etsy Love List

I first discovered etsy, I believe it was 5 years ago! Only in the past few years have I purchased anything off of it. This year for Jon's Christmas presents I tried to purchase only handmade things off etsy. There's a few neat groups on there where you can trade your shop items with other shops. I also was able to get myself some Christmas presents from etsy shops. I thought it might be fun to post about some of my favorite items I've gotten. Some of these I've traded items for and some I purchased. A lot of these photos are from the shops themselves, I didn't take them. But as always, click on the photo to head to their shop! I'll also include a link to their shops below the photos.


I am VERY obsessed with stationary. All things stationary to be more exact. Journals, pens, tape, etc. I purchased two notebooks from Katie Blair Designs and absolutely loved them! She has lots of other books and stationary goodies so check out her shop!

 



I've wanted a cool strap for my camera for a while now and was in love with this one the moment it arrived! It's from a shop called See Spot Sew!  She has lots of other camera straps available.

 

 

Now seriously, how adorable are these shoes?! And guess what! She makes them in adult sizes! Yep, I got them. They're perfect for walking around in the house. They keep my toes warm! They're from a shop called Sam's Crochet! She makes lots of different crocheted things so check it out!


So you can file this under "Things You Don't Know And Probably Don't Need To Know About Me" But I love buying tea. I have a cupboard full of it. I always find a flavor I want to try! That's why I was excited when I found this sampler package in the teaman's shop. He has over 50 gourmet flavors and you get to chose what kind you want to try in your sampler. So far our favorite has been the strawberry, vanilla chai, and lemon honey.

This photo is from her listing but you might remember seeing this hat in my most recent vlog! I LOVE the color of it and it's so cute! She has hats for babies, children, and adults! So there's something for everyone. Her shop's name is Rosy Toeses Crochet

 

 

You might remember this hat before too! This hat is so cozy and perfect for keeping the winter wind off my head! I ordered two from her, one for my friend and one for me and she did an excellent job on both of them! The one for my friend was custom and she was so great to work with and got the color I requested perfect! Salutations Crochet


That was fun! Perhaps I'll do another post soon with some of the other items I've received off etsy! What are some of your favorite shops??


***Disclaimer*** I didn't receive anything for doing these promotions. In fact the shop owners don't even know I'm writing them. I just love their items and wanted to share their shop with you guys!
