Etsy Spree

As promised, another wish list. This is all etsy stuff, but no jewelry. Maybe that will be its own post someday. Stone. Ship card. Spring Demon. Bottle opener. Hair tie. Push pin. Scarf.TV pin. Hankie.

Shopping Spree: Housewares

Awesome playing cards.
A Moomin tray or two.
Crocheted sand dollar.
This MS. poster for my office.
Scented drawer liners. Lilies of the valley remind me of my grandma.
A chair I can't afford.
I covet this apple so deeply.
And this stapler even more.

(i heart) Where The Lovely Things Are

I love the blog Where the Lovely Things Are. Mallory always finds the coolest things. The (i heart) ART, Mary Poppins Picks, and Lovely Finds series are all great. But my favorite is always Etsy and a Movie. Brilliant idea, always well executed.

Needlework

Stephan hates embroidery, but I love it. I want to to put lots of it in our house for the double pleasure of doing the needlework and of spiting Stephan. That said, it is hard to find stuff that is decent. I like the British or primitive-inspired cross-stitch and the contemporary art embroidery. Here are some of my favorites from cottonblue's etsy shop via The Small Object, Sublime Stitching, AnnieOakleaves' etsy shop, and fromThe Historic Needlework Guild.
