But he also has these two other fabulous items. This Clay Indian Harvest Pitcher.


And for the fishing enthusiast in your life, this Vintage 7' Kodiac Fly/Spin Rod. How cool is this?

Locket Love From Down Under

** Paper and Ribbons is offering all readers of CoconutPalmDesigns FREE worldwide shipping on any purchase over $20 for one week from today's post. Please leave "CoconutPalmDesigns" in the note to seller at checkout to receive your shipping refund. **

Today's featured artisan, Paper and Ribbons, has a beautiful selection of vintage style jewelry in her shop but I am going to focus on only one aspect. I've always found lockets to be intriguing and these sure don't disappoint.

This heart shaped locket comes complete with a tiny brass key and an ivory glass pearl. Stars and hearts and it opens! Can it get any better than that?


I know it's a flower but I think it looks like a little angel floating along beside this antiqued gold locket.


And for the bride in your life, there is this gorgeous oval locket which is embedded with a white dahlia cabochon.

A Crafty Family

The Rustic Home offers items inspired by nature and the elements. This Etsy store is owned and run by a family. They favor trees, owls, dragonflies and the elements but love custom orders.

I just love, love, love, this Kitty Cat Sunglasses Case.


I've always loved painted glass and this Bunny Hill Glass Pitcher is no exception. The Rustic Home has a lot of other painted glass that you should check out.


Isn't this Sunflower Necklace beautiful? It is hand sculpted and hand carved using earth clay and features a spiral sunflower.

All Things Paper and Ink

Kelly, at ink whimsy, (don't you just love the name of her shop) is today's feature. To use her own words, she has "a shop for all things paper and ink." Visit ink whimsy to see the following items and many more.

My son, who's two, kept pointing and exclaiming over these cute Bulldog Cards, which come in a set of 5.


I think these Citrus Mini Cards (a set of 6) have a very refreshing look to them.


This Yellow and Kraft Hearts Paper Garland is also really cute. Don't you think?

Can We All Say, Awwwww

How adorable are these handmade clothes from Etsy seller Mimi's Dress Shop?

I admit, ever since my son was born I've made myself stop lusting after all the sweet little dresses and bits of pink lace and frills. Instead, I've focused on finding cute little boy clothes and this outfit in Mimi's Dress Shop is just about one of the cutest things I've ever seen!


Not to neglect all the little girls out there, wouldn't this birthday shirt and skirt just look darling on your little one?


And, who can resist big polka dots? I really think it's time for another child... hopefully a girl this time.

Find Love with a Handmade Bear

Clare, of Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK, has been creating these adorable bears for over ten years. She says each is made with love, care and attention to detail.

Also, check out Clare's SALE section on Etsy where you can receive 30% off and free shipping on select items.

I just love this Sock Bear!


This Gingerbread Bear reminds me so much of a beloved bear I had as a child!


And if bears aren't your thing, Clare also offers other animals like this white rabbit. Bonus! He's one of the sale items.
