Anyway, while I was feverishly searching Etsy, I found some adorable items that didn't really fit with Christmas gifts, but that were too adorable not to share. If you're my husband, you should consider this a Christmas gift list. If you're not my husband, you should be teaching my husband what a blog is and how to access mine.
I love collage art and funky, creative designs, so when I came across Allison Strine Designs, I swooned. And then I saw this:
I'm pretty sure it was made for me, because I have a very intense love for candy corn. All of her designs are available as a print, pendant, card, or magnet. I have a vision of Wine Tops Her Food Pyramid hanging in my kitchen and She's Her Own Kind of Beautiful in my bathroom and She Decided She Was Worth It in my bedroom and Yes She Can in every single room in my house. Aren't they amazing? I'm so inspired and in awe of her prints.
And then yesterday, It's Elemental added me on Twitter. Probably because I spend my non-feverish hours tweeting about how much I love Etsy. Here's the thing... I'm very picky about bags, to the point where I'll almost always choose kate spade over something on Etsy. But then I saw that this seller uses Amy Butler inspired fabrics, and SWOON. The ribbons and bows and bright colors make me dizzy, in a good way. Especially this one:
And definitely this one, too. I just think those would be the most perfect bags, especially for those with babies (LIKE ME) because they could double as a diaper bag.
And finally, this isn't Etsy, but Shane if you're reading this, I would really like a Sakura Bloom silk sling. A girl can dream, right?
To see a list of even more amazing sellers, check out Beth's blog. I found some good Christmas presents in that list!

Oh you know I love some handmade goodness. You know, if you don't get the fancy shmancy Sakura Bloom sling, you could always settle for a Prairie Mama original ;)

So, just totally hoping that you didn't buy from ALL of those sellers listed, did you? Or we might have some duplications at our gift exchange... :)

Love the LOVE bag...polka dots are a fave!
After I saw your tweet about Allison Strine Designs I spent a long time looking through that shop! There are some really cute things in there!
I'll totally, and very bluntly, tell Share to read your blog. You know I have no tact... ;-)
I love random etsy searching and looking at fun things! I have a list of favorites a mile long that I sometimes dream eveyone I know would look at a buy for me. I tried to explain to my mom how to look at it, but I imagine that went as well as showing Shane how to access your blog.....
PS- If we are defining ourselves in Etsy prints, I'm pretty sure this is me:

I love the art shop.
