I've been receiving many nice Etsy submissions lately that I sometimes think I cannot keep up with all of the talent on Etsy but I'm willing to try! This week there are five little shops that caught my eye for their unique style and colors... Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Ah Naomi Murrell, what you do to me! Her folksy modern prints are lovely, just as you'd expect from an Aussie artist. Is it me, or does every single illustrator from Australia on Etsy positively rock? I mean, seriously, that country must be bursting at the seams with talent.

Cosas M?nimas, which means tiny things in Spanish, has some sweet illustrations that you may enjoy. Illustrator Blanca G?mez lives in Madrid and is an excellent photographer as well - view her Flickr stream to see some of them.

Pearl and Marmalade has some of the best letterpress I've seen. Deep delicious impressions... hard to resist such mouthwatering temptation. :)

Chet and Dot makes me want to stop procrastinating on some of my sewing projects el pronto! I also think their things would make a great present. For instance, you could purchase a sewing kit for a friend and then find a nice book about sewing to accompany it, wrap your prezzie, and anticipate lots of smiles and joy. :)

I may have featured Abigail Brown before, but I just adore her little creations. From masks to handmade cloth birds, cards, prints, and beyond... there is nothing in this sweet shop that I wouldn't own or gift to a friend. I think the masks would be lovely arranged over a crib in a nursery, don't you? (images linked to sources above)
