I received a lovely set of stationary with my name on it from this shop for the holidays. So I decided to check back and see what was up for Valentine’s Day and I wanted to share it with you! In addition to really beautiful and witty paper products, she also offers printed scarves and dish towels in the most wonderful patterns. So, one stop shop for V-Day people…get the card and the scarf and you’re all good!

This next post is, I think one of the coolest things I’ve seen on Esty! How many of you guys and gals have been married or had a ceremony and still haven’t done a THING with your photos cause you just couldn’t find the right way to present them? Or how many are looking for a beautiful and fun way to put together a collection of photos for a keepsake….or as a gift for someone special…or…just something to spoil yourself? You’re gonna hafta check out Imogen Froward on Etsy…these books are just awesome. In addition to the books, they also offer photo retouching/restoration as well as other graphic needs. I am shocked that I didn’t find this sooner!

Crank Bunny

Kristen — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 11:00:55 +0000

I was struck by the beautiful illustration and painstaking work that must go into these pieces by Crank Bunny on Etsy. I couldn’t believe how much detail there was in them! They can truly be framed after they are sent, since each one is a work of art. As a child my favorite books were pop ups, and this brought back that time in my life and I had to share it with all of you!

The Singing Tree

Kristen — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 11:00:44 +0000

I found this next seller through Indiepublic! She friended me – I always check out my friendings…8)…and I really got a kick out of some of the clever finds in The Singing Tree’s shop. The first two are wonderful Valentine’s Day gift tags. I really just loved the innovative way they were made, they’re not your run of the mill tags, they are like mini pop-ups. It’s not too late…snap them up while you can! The third item is just an absolutely joyous and adorable ladybug pin. It reminds me of my mother because of something a psychic once said…but then…I digress!
