I am on Etsy's Front Page...

... and doing a silly dance to celebrate! Wouhou!

My LE BIJOU - 3-in-1 Glamourous wristlet in aquamarine and seafoam has had soooooo many views, it's crazy... and awesome!

Well I wouldn't exactly call myself an expert quilter, but a few weeks ago I was in a pinch and needed a gift for my friend's newborn son. After rummaging through fabric scraps I decided I would make him a baby blanket quilt. I used mostly recycled t-shirt fabric, so it was eco-friendly as well! And I just love the color scheme blues and teal and beige and brown. So modern!

Trading Chronicles : indulgentcreations

At the begginning of the summer, I decided to brighten up my summer a little by doing some trades with some fellow Etsy sellers. It is such a fun way to discover new shops and get great stuff! As a result, I've been in contact with some amazing, talented artists.

I was thrilled when indulgentcreations contacted me with promises of beautiful smells and lathering soaps. I particularly enjoy the fresh minty smell and skin-smoothing texture of the Mint and Herbs Spa Salt Bar. Soooooooooooo energizing!

Here are some other yummy soap treats from indulgentcreations' shop.

Raw Treasury

Raw silk is one of my favorite fabrics to work with. It is the perfect mix of elegance and organic. And thanks to retroattack's R A W S I L K Treasury I se that a lt of fellow Etsians also enjoy working with this gorgeous material!

Oh, and that's my LE BIJOU WATERMELON - 3-in-1 Glamourous wristlet in lime green and pink in there!

A few weeks ago, I've decided to brighten up my summer a little by doing some trades with some fellow Etsy sellers. It is such a fun way to discover new shops and get great stuff! As a result, I've been in contact with some amazing, talented artists.

So I've stumbled upon FluffyFlower's shop and fell in love with this cute zipper pouch. The colors are fresh and vibrant and as I've said many many many times before, I loooooove paisley!
