ETSY FINDS

*****Promoting some etsy shops today. I found some really cute items that I just have to pass on. ******

I LOVE this goldfish cat toy in Destinystreasures.etsy.com Confidentially, I think my cat Babysocks may like it too! It just so looks like those goldfish crackers............i think of them and smile every time i see this toy. She also has a really cute ghost cat toy.........for those of us who give our pets halloween gifts. http://www.destinystreasures.etsy.com/

RoseRidgeCreations has some very useful and unique items in her shop. Take for instance, this walker bag. As my mom puts it, "we old people need places to put our sh*t". She's a little off the wall, my mom. In any case, this bag is very pretty and can be customized. She has lots of other neat items too..............the fleece socks look super warm and soft! http://www.roseridgecreations.etsy.com/

BEAUTIFUL Photography by Jessicatorres.etsy.com Of course the first thing I go for is the hearts. I totally LOVE the Love is Strong ACEO. Of course she has lots of other wonderful photographs in the shop. Captures the moments so vividly.
Another great one is Good Morning Sunshine, and thats what this pic is certainly saying. www.jessicatorres.etsy.com

All About the SNOWMEN

Thats right! those cute little men of the snow! i love them! and along with hearts, which i collect all year, many years ago i have chosen to collect snowmen at christmastime. you'll find them on my tree, walls, and all other types of decor including stuffed animals.

I came across artwhims shop in a thread i was posting/promoting in the other night and saw her snowman ornaments. She was featuring some sports related snowmen, but I didnt see a hockey snowman. I convoed her and lo and behold, a custom order was born!!!! She made me two. One holding a hockey stick and one hugging a puck. Keeping with my hearts addiction however, heres a photo of one of them holding a HEART. Shes very new to etsy. Visit her at http://www.artwhims.etsy.com/ You'll love looking around her shop, and she is very convo friendly, should you have questions.

Now lets see...............hearts and snowmen, snowmen and hearts. Oh look...........christiecottage has some. http://www.christiecottage.etsy.com/ A set of three! Cute hearts made of felt featuring a snowman face gazing at a star. Dont you love the carrot noses???? This set would look darling hanging on any christmas tree. Browse around the shop. Shes got a bevy of miscellaneous gift items and holiday things as well.

Even though i'm in Florida it all makes me want to see the snow and build my own snowman!! nah, not really, but they're cute as heck. If you pop into onceuponatimeagos shop you will find a snowman baby. He's adorable and looks so super soft. Just waiting for someone to come along and cuddle him up! Great price too. http://www.onceuponatimeago.etsy.com/ has lots of different and fun items in her shop. Check it out!!!

HUGS TO THE SNOWMEN!!!!

Chocolate in your Easter Basket

Well, what is an Easter basket without chocolate?? Better yet, what is and Easter basket without a chocolate bunny. I remember as a kid, all my friends would bite off the ears of their Easter bunnies first, but I could never bear to do that, I always ate my Chocolate bunny from the bottom up, and saved the ears for last, even wrapping them in reynolds wrap for later. I've found a new etsy shop and in it, lo and behold, the traditional chocolate Easter bunny! You'll want to check out http://www.kandykettlekitchen.etsy.com for all sorts of yummy goodies. I drool just browsing the shop and it really does bring back my old Easter basket days!!!

In Aminyitray's shop http://www.aminyitray.etsy.com/ I found some chocolate you can WEAR. Thats right! An awesome looking pendant which features a golden foil chocolate wrapper. Looks to be straight from one of those expensive, fancy candy shops too. Be unique! I'm sure you'll be the only one you know wearing one of these babies. She has loads of other jewelry in her shop, so please browse around. You will be glad that you did, and you might find a treasure you just cant live without.

How about some gooey carmel chocolate??? Well, once again, not the kind you eat (too many calories there), but more like the kind you would wear again. yup, another pendant. This one is totally awesome, and not only LOOKS like some gooey melting carmel chocolate, but it is heart shaped, which of course is my favorite thing as i collect hearts. http://www.mycabincreations.etsy.com/ has some of the most unique items I have ever come across. I am sure you will have fun looking through her shop and love everything as much as I do.

And of course, not to be outdone, I also have a little bit of chocolate in MY shop. http://www.craftheart.etsy.com/ After all, two of my favorite things are hearts and chocolate! Every diet I've ever broken has been for chocolate. Please visit my shop, and as an unadvertised etsy special, take 20% off any TWO items you purchase. Just mention "20% etsy blog sale".
