Enter the June Contest!
June 26, 2008
Forget Ebay — Etsy is my online vice. Not only are there fabulous handmade things to buy, but I can get caught up there for hours following the “Hearts Me” links, which allow you to see the items that other people have marked as favorites.
This month, you can win a set of four peacock feather cards from the Blackbird Letterpress shop on Etsy. These cards feature a delicate peacock feather printed in blue ink on 100% cotton paper. The strands of the feather leave a lovely impression in the paper, creating a delicious texture that only letterpress printing can make.
Set of four 5 x 3.5’’ cards with coordinating blue envelopes.
Designed by Kathryn Hunter

Gorgeous cards! Turquoise is a favorite color of mine at the moment.
As for one of my favorite etsy items…I have to say these adorable bears:

My only purchase on etsy so far has been two of those bears, which I gave to friends of mine for Valentines Day. They came packaged in such a lovely way, as well :)

Oh my, Etsy. I can lose hours on there, easy.
I like to search for local artists, just see what’s going on in my neck of the woods, and while these shoes are waaaaaay above my budget, they are GORGEOUS:

I particularly adore the red patent leather Mary Janes and the green and purple ones.

I am commenting on a comment! Those handmade shoes are toooo much…I am dumbfounded that someone out there actually makes SHOES. How cool would it be to make your own?!
I haven’t spent that much time on Etsy…yet… but it looks like that’s gonna change.
