Blog — "Etsy"

Just happened to stumble upon this lovely shop, Shibang Designs, that has beautiful textile pieces in bold vibrant colors. Clutches, iPad sleeves, cosmetic bags, home decor, and other such things all are appliqued with brightly colored flowers that come in some of my favorite hues.






What are some of your Etsy favorites at the moment?

It's been a while since I've given an update of all the awesome things I've been working on for my shop. Here are a few of my faves.








You can click on the photos to take you directly to the items in my shop. And don't forget, The February Sale Event is running throughout the entire month! Check out the SALE section in my shop for items up to 50% off. Plus, use the code FEBRUARY10 to receive 10% off of anything in the shop, including sale items!

Just happened across this beautiful little paper shop the other day. If you're one that likes notebooks and other such paper goods, you'll probably love One Fine Dae as well. The notebooks look perfect for the list maker like me and the pencils are super fun.






What sorts of paper shops have you been loving lately?

One of my latest Etsy finds are these adorable little pins and fantastic geometric necklaces from Hug a Porcupine. It's really hard not to like these enamel accessories.






I think my favorite has to be the triangle necklaces, and there are so many fun color options! What are some of your favorite Etsy finds these days?

I'm pretty sure that art runs in the family. My dad's art is building guitars. My mom's is baking bread and making woodblock prints. My sister's is hats. Yup. Hats. Well, that's not entirely true because she's pretty amazing with all sorts of media-- painting, drawing, knitting, collage-ing, jewelry-making, card-making, sewing, and probably a bunch of other things that I can't even remember anymore. So to say just hats would be silly when she's spent her entire life doing art of one sort or another.

Her latest focus, however, is her Etsy shop StarSeventeen. She especially loves creating geometric designs. And she paints her geometric designs on hats. I love the originality of this particular art and the fact that no two hats are alike.








And if that's not enough hats for you, I'm pretty sure she rocks at making knitted hats too.  I can fully attest to that one considering that both mine and Andrew's favorite winter hats are ones that she knitted us for Christmas a few years ago. A few of those for eye candy as well...



And we even share an obsession with Sharpie markers...


She sells her hats on Etsy in her shop StarSeventeen. And you can check her out on Facebook as well. In the future, she's hoping to focus mostly on her geometric designs, expanding to poster prints, and even clothing. Lots to look forward to in the future! Show her some love and head over to her shop and facebook page to favorite and like her!
