Good stuff from Etsy

So my little Etsy shop isn't doing so well. Still no interest. But that doesn't keep me from checking out what everyone else has for sale over there and regaling you all with it. I seem to be particularly in to screen printing and letterpress these days. Here are some recent loves:

Stationary
Modern Printed Matter has great stuff. The dragonfly note cards are my favorite. They are $10 plus $1.50 shipping for a set of six.

pixelimpress swimmin alongpixelimpress has lovely cards as well. I'm particularly digging the purple and green "Swimmin' Along" set

Letterary Press has some funny cards, including this Gertrude Stein card, $4 with free shipping.

winifred studies dog cardMy absolute favorite stationary, though, is made by winifred studios. These ridiculously cute dog cards are $10 plus $2 shipping and handling for a set of four, and she also has a pug version!

Art
Mixed media artist Jamie Beitter sells her collage art at Living in Freedom. While some of it seems vaguely religiously themed and doesn't work for me, some of it is awesome. The "Be You" print is an 8"X10", and it's $15 plus $2 S&H.

I know I've posted about them before, but I still can't get over how much I love the "I Love Your Spatulas" and "I Love Your Eggbeaters" prints at studio mela. They're 8"X10", $20 each plus $5 S&H.

jelly beans cherry blossom printI am just nuts about Angela's work at Jelly Beans. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I really love her Cherry Blossom print, which is 8.5"X11" and $15 plus $4 S&H.

Jewelry
I already bought a pendant from Ling Glass. I love it so much, I want to buy another one. This other one. It's $18 plus $3.50 S&H.

steam punk pendantA ton of people are making pendants from paper overlaid Scrabble tiles, and I love too many of them to count. My absolute favorite, though, is Littleputbooks' "Steam Punk" pendant. It's $15 plus $2 shipping and comes in its own decorative box.

I am still, as always, lusting over the offerings of the Broken Plate Pendant Company. Right now I especially love this turquoise and orange graphic pendant, made from an Anthropologie plate. It's $30 plus $2 S&H.

joie de vivre pendanI love the ephemera pendants Bluevivor makes, especially this slightly snarky Joie de vivre one. It's $10 plus $2.25 S&H.

Clothes/bags
Boutique Mia makes beautiful clothes for adults and kids. My favorite thing is this funky, choose-your-own-fabric pillowcase top. It's $32.99 plus $4.60 shipping.

Baffin Bags makes some CUTE tote/diaper bags. This sage green tote and wallet set is my favorite. It's $38 plus $6 shipping.

I've pointed out the lunch sacks at Sandra Kay Creations before, but what about this great Sami Ann tote? I love the size, shape, and fabric. It's $40 plus $8.95 S&H.

Kids' stuff
Gifts for kids are probably my favorite thing to look at on Etsy. Some of my favorite stuff is at Mountain Aven Baby. It's more money than one should spend, but this pink and brown jumping jack lounge set may well be headed to the home of a couple of friends of mine who are about to adopt their first child. It's $42 plus $4.50 shipping.

weiner dog gift setMore child gift possibilities come from Bella Blu Designs. I am particularly loving this weiner dog gift set. Look at the way the dog wraps around! Look at the bone on the butt! For $36 plus $4 shipping you get the onesie, pants, and coordinating burp cloth.

Another thing I am coveting for a baby present is Baffin Bags' Amy Butler patchwork quilt. It's 32"X32", and costs $45 plus $6 S&H.

That's what I've got for now. Buy handmade! :)

Thank you so much for mentioning my Etsy Store in your blog. I also love looking at all the neat things listed on Etsy. Karen - Baffinbags

I spend a lot of time browsing Etsy as well... but I really enjoy your collection of favorites here! They would make a great treasury - now the only trouble is getting a hold of one!
