Etsy is a truly wonderful place where you can buy lots of beautiful crafty things directly from the creators. I made some groovy purchases recently I just had to share.
See that pretty red flower pincushion? That delightful thing and it's cute little bug companion are from the lovely shop SinkDaisy. She is new to Etsy and I was lucky enough to be her first sale. I loved that! I try to support the new folks as much as possible because I remember what it was like to be new.
The second set of goodies are all from Tributary. Some of you may remember the little brown bag with log and pine tree from the front page of Etsy a couple of weeks ago. Well I couldn't resist the darn thing and promptly scooped it up along with the lovely patch and notecards. Truly adorable stuff ya'll!
I owe a couple of thank yous to some very nice people and A Punkin Card Company and Aranmade provided me with some real beauties.
Speaking of beauties, how about these lovelies, eh? Couldn't resist them I tell you! Absolutely Small is stuffed full of tiny treasures. I picked up something else there too but its a surprise for someone who reads this blog so I can't show it to you. :) I bought another gift for a friend from Minecreations that I'm not able to show you either but I assure you it is very nice indeed.
Finally, one of my favorite shops, Trail Mix Designs, will be featured in an Etsy showcase today so swing on over there if you get a chance.
I'm loving all the woodsy goodness and heading over to check out the shops!

Great stuff! I've got a couple things from Etsy on the way to me right now.
I love to be someone's first sale too, it's great. SinkDaisy's monkey pin cushion is awesome. I'm trying to perfect one myself right now. haha

Love Etsy. I go there first when I'm looking for gifts and just something special for myself. Recently bought some funky jewelry there.

That is some cute stuff.
Can you believe that I have never bought anything from etsy yet? It's getting to the point where it's hard to resist much longer.
