In time for Valentines Day, here are some of my favorite things on Etsy – from some fabulous Etsy Moms.
This would be an awesome present for any new mom! (Or a baby shower present!) And only $4! (This shop also has adorable baby PJs):
Gilded leaves nursing pads
I love to take a utilitarian object and make it pretty–thus, these nursing pads. Instead of clinical disposable pads, these pads are colorful, soft, and reusable. Thick and absorbent, they consist of eight layers of cotton flannel and are edged with hand-sewn bias tape. Some of the inner layers are re-purposed from flannel pjs! The outer layers are brand new. They have a greater circumference than store-bought pads to offer more protection. One satisfied customer told me that a similar pair I made worked more reliably than any other pad she had used. |
What a wonderful decoration for any kid’s room! Price varies with letter count:
Name Blocks Mosaic Jungle Six Letter Wood Shelf or Wall Set with Nail Slot to hang, M2M BananafishChilds room or Baby Nursery
Mosaic Jungle set on white blocks designed to match your room decor. Quality hand crafted letter blocks to create that special name, word or phrase.The routed edge adds a decorative picture frame look to the blocks. Your set can be made on white, black, brown, ivory or natural wood blocks. |
What a great valentines day present! Aren’t these beautiful? $21.20
Coffee Break – rectangular stone beaded necklace and earrings
Put your feet up. Close your eyes and smell that fresh aroma of coffee as you lift the cup to your lips.
Ahhh.Coffee Break – is a 18 inch long necklace which consists of 4 multicolored rectangular 1-1/4 x 3/4 inch beads with coffee colored and bronze beads. The necklace has a gold lobster claw clasp. The matching earrings have coffee colored and bronze beads on gold french hooks. |

Thank you Katie for sharing your photo!
This one has so many layers. Through the whole process I was really happy with the drawing, but had a hard time resolving the colors and especially the values. I think it turned out really well in the end. They look so in love….

We’re getting ready for a little trip to La Grande, OR where my mom lives… (This painting is of La Grande from one of our previous visits.) Next month we’re headed back to SD to look at houses and apartments again. And then we’re headed back to Seattle to visit. So much traveling!
