Etsy Friday
♥ Comments (17) ♥
I haven’t done one in a long while. Sorry. Just busy busy like worker bees. I wanted to thank everyone who participated in our update yesterday and made the Pedigree Adoption Fund drive from our bags a success! Lucy Dog is very proud of all of you. If she could she would shake and give you all a slobber shower in total Lucy Dog fashion.
first up i have a very funny shirt. I think most of you will understand why i had to have it. I first saw redpaperrecord at Holiday Renegade in Dec. She didn’t have the size i needed in a women’s shirt. But she messaged me the minute she did, like a month later. I’m suprised she remembered me. Here is my AWESOME shirt. In a terrrible bathroom mirror shot. I also included two so you can totally see my chococat shower cap in the background.


So how about some new stitch marker people! Stitch marker people you say? For those who don’t know, as one of the small details i like to include with our bags is a small stitch marker on each bag with the business card attached so you know where you can buy some just like it. I BUY these to promote people i like. Some people are really excited about it and some like to even add extras in which is always graciously accepted. I find it fun and yet functional to offer this to our bags. Plus it dresses them up a bit.

how about these pretty little metal ones from Redpanada


then there’s these cute little ones from Yarn Pig/ Bea Binney



and last there’s some cookies by Kish Crafts



So some of you know i am a graphic designer when i am not sewing. You can see some patterns i’ve layed out for people here.
One of the patterns went on sale in etsy. Side on Mitts pattern and The Mitts Kit are available in Cairi’s shop. She not only designed some interesting mitts you knit sideways, but she dyes lovely squishy yarn that is worth every penny.


I also got some beautiful jewelry from Mark Poulin/marmar. I have loved his jewelry from seeing it in Hazel a boutique by Nat’s. Then it was all over when i found him on etsy. Nat got me the dog and kitty metal pendants. I purchased the reversable one in the middle.


I also got some jewelry from Nat for xmas and my b-day. From Katheyn Reichart. I love her custom stuff very much. The ring says live dangerously cause i never make a grocery list, nor did i own a knit picks dpn gauge but owned their dpns that were like 2mm, 2.25mm, 2.5mm,2.75mm and they’d all get mixed up. haha
Thanks Lesa for that xmas gift by the way.


Ok so go out and hunt yourself down some great etsy stuff!!

You always find the greatest stuff. I love the reversible dog/cat pendant.

holy crikey I kind of hate you a lot (in the jealous, loving kind of way) over the Katheyn Reichart jewelry. *want*. Not that I need more jewelry, because I wear the same stuff every day, but you know.
My question to you, is, though - DID YOU GET A POSTER? I totally did. :D :D :D
