Etsy: Take Five Tuesdays
I thought it would be fun to write a new column each week called Etsy: Take Five Tuesdays to show you some of the etsy stores that I enjoy that haven't received much blog attention yet. Since adding my Etsy ticker to the left column several months ago (I change my finds daily, even on weekends), I've been a little lazy when it comes to writing actual posts featuring Etsy artists. These talented artists enjoy seeing their products featured on blogs even more than a quick spot on a ticker, so starting today I'll post Etsy: Take Five Tuesdays showcasing my 5 finds of the week in addition to the little ticker. :)
Plonka by Dalinda from Norway, who is also a blogger. I have to order a few of her CD holders, much better than jewel cases and great for the random CDs laying on my desk that I refer to often for work. The fabrics she uses and the color palette is so very feminine - a nice change from the usual CD cases offered in music stores - red vinyl and black leather. Ugh. These would make great gifts.
Flower Shop Press is from Australia and this etsy store owner creates pretty floral prints (and shoes!) in modern colors and my favorite, the white on gray pattern shown above, it's really unexpected since most prints are on white or cream paper these days. I like this a lot.
Wonting. One word: Darling. I'm wanting more. :) This etsy store owner even designed a Dunny figure for Kid Robot. If they're good enough for Dunny, they're good enough for me.
Tabitha Emma is another Aussie with sweet and innocent fashion illustrations celebrating the art of looking good while taking your afternoon tea. My favorite is I do like Tea.
In My Back Yard is a girl from New Zealand and she loves to create patches, pretty fleece things (like pins) and even a print or two. There's nothing like shopping for one-of-a-kind handmade items at these prices!
