Knitted Warmth

Etsy seller, Halpal28 hand-knits the cutest hats and accessories. (Not to mention she's got some of the cutest models, her niece and nephew!)

The Baby Oakdale Hat is just too too cute and would make a wonderful baby shower gift!

This Set of Mommy and Daughter Hats in Taupe and Raspberry Pink would look so great being worn in a family picture.

The Sweetheart Headband is a great way to dress up any outfit.

What's Old Is New

With so many gorgeous items to choose from it was next to impossible to pick just three for today's featured Etsy shop, Queen G Designs!

I love watches and time pieces so this necklace caught my eye right away!

These hair clips made with antique earrings are just too fun!

And this bracelet is simply beautiful!

Time's Passage

I love photos of old things, people and places. The following photographs by Etsy artist, Wilde Designs, are part of a series showing time worn buildings in Texas.

From South Bend, Texas, this photo is number four in the Vanishing Texas series.

Number seven in the series was taken in Mineral Wells, Texas.

And back in South Bend, there is number five, this abandoned house.

A Veritable Sock Safari

Anyone who knows me will tell you I have a thing for safari animals. My favorite animal is the giraffe and elephants are a very close second so it's no wonder with the multitude of adorable sock creatures available from Treacher Creatures I would choose the following three.

Isn't Geoffrey, the sock giraffe, the cutest thing you've seen today?

And I love the color combination of Eddie, the sock elephant!

But he's not to be outdone by Tony, the sock tiger's colorful stripes!

Lampwork Magic

Searching for a one of a kind gift for someone? Or maybe just a nice treat for yourself? Rachel Cohen of The Magic Glass Online Boutique on Etsy creates some beautiful jewelry.

I am totally in love with this OOAK Necklace of Handmade Lampwork Discs. It's very elegant.


This Vintage Style Multicolor Lampwork Bead Ring is really eye catching and I am sure you'd get a tonne of compliments when wearing it.


And these OOAK Funky Flower Earrings are very pretty.

Dance With Me

I think I am back to wishing for a little girl so I can dress her up in all the absolutely adorable things on Etsy particularly these tutus by Mama Always Said.

I am in love with the color scheme of this Under the Sea TripleTie PettiTutu.


Big City Girl Pettitut is another sweet combination.


And in honour of the USA's Independence Day, here is a 4th of July PoofPom Tutu.
