Hello friends and welcome to another week of Etsy finds, I think you’ll be inspired by at least one of these great sellers today! I’m excited to share with you these five shops in particular because they’re all relatively new finds for me too so I share your excitement. From screen prints to portraits, scarves to gorgeous wooden things for your kitchen, there’s a little something for everyone!

First up is print maker Dee Beale in the UK. Her screen prints, which feel very Scandinavian to me, are just lovely!

I am so happy to learn that Lisa DeJohn now has an Etsy shop. Her illustrative work is so fun and full and detail and imagination… The ducks rowing totally remind me of the Charles River in Boston in front of Harvard. I wonder if this is what inspired her work?

Yokoo Scarves & Accessories will keep you warm and cozy on crisp evenings… These are utterly gorgeous and most can be custom made in any color of your liking.

I found out about Art by Elizabeth Bauman over on Victoria’s blog this week. These portraits are just great! Good find, Victoria and so very, very you! Please see Victoria’s portrait collection from various artists over her sofa for a little decorating inspiration.

Gorgeous, organic wood things for the home by Nature Design… The cups are amazing, I cannot stop looking at them! I imagine an interiors stylist or still life/food photographer could do something really neat with all of these gorgeous goodies.

Are you ready to explore five charming Etsy stores with me today? Oh goody! So let’s see here {ruffling through my files, one moment please}… what do I have… tah-dah! 8 shops in my magic hat! {crowd roars.} Three of these shops have two stores each so you’re getting 8 for the price of 5 today! 8, 8 shops (ah Ah ah ahhh, I lovvve to count things… in my best Count voice). Enjoy!

Warm Whispers is photographer Sara Duckett who has such a soft, romantic view of the world with lots of vintage charm. {etsy} {website} {etsy shop #2} {website} {portfolio} {vintage shop} {blog}

Good morning friends! I thought I’d get started early today with Etsy Take Five Tuesday so are you ready to see what’s cookin’? I hope you like my finds because well, I do! :)

Feeling crafty? Fall and winter brings out the crafter in all of us. How about some Korean crafts from Lemon Tree. Don’t miss the pineapple and leaf post-its. {etsy}

I was just sitting here thinking about how I’ve been able to write this column for over a year already and I don’t think I’ve featured the same artist more than once. Too funny, especially since I only use my memory to guide me when I write this each week. I’m bound to duplicate an artist at some point! :) Anyway, random-thoughts-while-blogging aside, here are my five picks for this week — prints, papers, packing supplies and other pretties that you won’t want to miss!

Hooray Design Shop: Packing supplies and other pretty things for your workspace. {etsy} {blog}

Nan Lawson: Illustrative prints for framing or tacking to your inspiration board. {etsy} {etsy shop #2} {blog}

Tutti Studio: This girls draws so beautifully, I imagine her work in children’s books don’t you? So cute! {etsy}

Two Brunettes: Limited edition stationery including recipe cards and more – like custom banners for your blog! {etsy} {blog}

Your Wishcake: I love her soft, feminine wallets, magnets and hair pins. {etsy} {blog}
