Strawberrykitten

Well it’s Simons long day at college today and i’m still waiting for baby to show up – feeling a little achey and tired so i’ve decided to have a computer day. One of the tasks on my list is an Etsy faves post…long overdue i know, so here we are.

[left + middle] How cute are these little animal cards, i love them! they have all sorts of uses too, they are from WonderlandRoom. The adorable post box with letters is also from the same shop i love stuff like this, cute party idea maybe. [right] Partly because theres a cat hugging it and partly because it’s a super cute case for your ipod/camera, i love the zipper mouth – it’s by Tokyoinspired

[left] I love this fox scarf – check out the bobbin4apples shop for more animal scarfs [middle] I really want one of these lion manes for our baby, many cute photos to be had with this hat! it’s by sweetpeatoadtots [right] I’m a sucker for funky packaging and i love the cute little hand drawn guinea pigs, they are by memohelen

Thats it for now, there was kind of an animal and cuteness theme this week – hope you liked it and make sure you visit all these fantastic shops

I have been a member of an etsy team called Plush life for a few weeks, which has now merged with an international group called the stuffed team! I’m so excited to be involved in this and am looking forward to being a really active member of the team, as much as i can with a new born on the way

i’ll try and make some posts promoting the work of the members too in the next few weeks – the next etsy faves post is a good start! coming soon i promise

here’s some of our team links, if you want to add/like/follow and spread the word that would be fantastic

For our first activity we have each been making a letter out of our team name. I got the letter A and have just finished a polar bear A. Excuse the bad photo, we are currently selling our canon 40d to upgrade so at the moment i’m stuck with the compact…

What else have i been up too? I just finished another custom large bear – thats 3 this month so far! and i’ve been working on some small felt brooch bears and hanging decorations for the xmas fair i’m doing, i’ll post some photos when the new camera arrives.

Now it’s nap time as i’m heavily pregnant and full of cold

I am soooo behind with these posts! i really need to get into a routine with them as i really love posting all my etsy faves. I have a good excuse though, preparing for a baby

Bit of a mixture this week…

I think i’m behind with this post – i’ve had a few issues with my back due to being 7 months pregnant and it’s getting quite difficult to sit at a desk for a prolonged length of time.  So crafting and blogging is being done a bit at a time!

That’s it for this week – i hope you liked!

It’s taken a while as I’ve had a few things on my mind and lots of jobs to do, getting my etsy shop up and running but here’s my first etsy faves post. I’ve done these before when I ran strawberrykitten and really enjoyed having somewhere to put all those items I heart on etsy.com. This time I’m going to do it a bit differently, I’ll be separating them into subjects – for example todays is for kids! Appropriate as I’m about 7 months pregnant and love looking at kiddies things

[left] While looking for artwork for the nursery I came across this colourful print by sugarfresh. [middle] I adore this tepee tent!! Might have to purchase one! It’s by Moozlehome. [right] If I was having a girl I’d be buying this gorgeous knitted top pattern, its so cute and its by Rasmilla.

[left] everyone loves dinosaurs, especially little boys, its cute and so simple. Its by Wildernest. [middle] this little plush hamster is so adorable! Its by Plushplex. [right] what an imaginative idea for a crayon, I love them and think I’ll definatly be getting some for our little one. There by Kitty baby love.

There you go there’s this weeks etsy faves – hopefully I can stay in the swing of it and post one every week so stay tuned!
