Etsy Find of the Week: Baby Cape/Coat

Can I scoop up this child and squish her?

And then... can I also get one of these in Big Lady Size?

Etsy Find of the Week: Kristiana Parn

I feel like my Etsy posts are prodominantly artwork, but I guess that's what I am drawn to on that site.  Art and soap.  And I feel like I should share, so:

I love love love Kristiana Parn's paintings of bunnies and foxes and little white bears!  I have one print hanging in my office but I think they would look adorable in a child's room.

Etsy Find of the Week: Kate Pugsley

I recently bought this little work of art.  It is hanging in my bathroom because some days you feel like wearing a bag over your head even if you have a cute polka dot dress on.

I also really like the grandma and the ice fishermen.

Etsy Find of the Week: Teardrop Trailers

I love teardrop trailers.  All summer long I have wanted to buy one, but (a) we can't really justify the expense right now, and (b) our cars are probably too small to drag one anyway.   So I am attempting to content myself with looking at trailer-themed goods on Etsy.    Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Etsy Find of the Week: Mean Birds

This clever artist did a whole series of prints centered around birds who have attacked her. 

Swans are bastards, I agree.

Etsy Find of the Week: Bee Houses

I really like these bee/insect houses by Wudwerx.  I come from a farming family, and these would be so great pinned to a tree somewhere among the orchards...  It's important to keep bees around so the trees can be pollinated and fruitful (we grow lemons and avocados - flowering trees), so this seems like a no-brainer.  However, my dad and my brother - the people who do the actual farming on the farm - are both deathly allergic to bees.  So this is probably not the optimal purchase for our family.   They're neat, though!

Etsy Find of the Week: Paintings that remind me of my childhood...

My family is from southern California, and Sharon Schock's paintings capture my memories of "home" almost perfectly.  I love her combo of bright and muted colors, the trees and the hills... and, of course, the avocados.

Etsy Find of the Week: Cool Clay Tiles

I love these tiles from Element Clay Studio.  They make them in all kinds of different organic forms and are so intricate and lovely.  Wish list.

Etsy Find of the Week: Black Apple Paper Dolls

I really enjoyed paper dolls when I was young.  I wonder if girls still do?  These little lovelies from The Black Apple are so cute.  Would it be weird if I wanted them for myself?

I'm not gonna lie:  My dog and I both make it a little bit hard for this proverb to come true sometimes.

But those who bear with us are lucky, lucky people! :)

I like sea life, and I like linens.  Here are some fun tea towels decorated with squids from Squid Ink Kollective.

Etsy Find of the Week: Airplant Pods

I think airplants (Tillandsia) are so weird and cool: No soil necessary, just a mist of water every so often.  Neat looking. 

Check out these hanging pods by Mudpuppy.  You tuck the airplant inside and then hang it.  I like it.  I might have to get one of these.

Etsy Find of the Week: "Lula's Sunshine Set" by Nadinoo

They went up to the cottage to dress for a swim. Betsy and Margaret put on blue serge bathing suits, trimmed with white braid around collars, sleeves, and skirts, long black stockings, laced bathing shoes, bandanas on their heads.

"Very skippy," Tony said.
