I’m still moving into my new space. . . but thought I’d stop to share this new find with you! I’m adoring the pottery work of Hideminy. Especially the translucency of these  paper thin porcelain cups. Wouldn’t they put a dash of “pretty” into your Halloween decor? I think they’d look marvelous paired up with mini white pumpkins across a window ledge.

I’ve been busy sourcing cutter quilts for more Mireio Dog Beds and along the way have found some absolutely amazing pieces that I’d love for MY bed, forget the dog! Sometimes an owner needs a nice comfy spot to rest too. Let’s get our quilt fix!

I’m completely enchanted with this restored antique crazy quilt. From the vintage fabrics to the pop of black stitching, it’s simply amazing. And it’s a great size too! You can find it at Oh This Nose

Hello Yellow! I’m loving this pop of color. And those tiny stitches. You can find this lovely double wedding ring quilt at Harriet’s Daughter. But hurry, it’s a steal!

Finally, I’m loving this romantic Castle Wall Quilt. It’s an antique quilt top that has recently been turned into a quilt. Which means you get the look of a vintage piece with the benefit of new batting and backing. Gorgeous, no? At Rosebud Quilters.

And of course, you can find more on Etsy!

I’m still hard at work in the Studio, prepping the fall line. But I thought I’d take a few moments to put up a short but lovely The Best of Etsy. For the next few weeks, The Best of Etsy will be previewing Fall 2010′s colors. Up today: Purple Orchid.

The Best of Etsy: Fall Preview Purple Orchid

Every girl needs a new bag for fall and Eight Seasons delivers one that’s perfect for the season. Roomy, soft, and beautifully adorned.

Fall isn’t complete without a gorgeous scarf to keep you warm and stylish. And I’m falling in love with Marshall Arts-–handwoven and ultra soft in a amazing collection of colors.

And why not a little bling? Especially if it’s pocketbook friendly! Lovely earrings from Wild Woman Jewelry

It’s all gorgeous, right? Tell me your favorite purple find for fall!  Leave a link in a comment!

Yay!! It’s finally summer here in the Northern Hemisphere. Time for another The Best of Etsy List. Today, it’s all about summer fashion and sunshine.

The Best of Etsy: The Early Summer List

You don’t want to be wearing heavy or clunky jewelry in the heat of summer. And Elpy’s Breta necklace is just the answer. Light and lovely and perfectly suited to soft summery blouses.

Jen has amazing style. This dress is perfect for slipping over a swimsuit. But I think you could also dress it up with strappy sandals and wear out it! This comes in several color combinations if pale pink isn’t you thing!

Maybe Summer = Boho-chic for you. This amazing bracelet is just the thing! It looks like ceramic tiles, but don’t let looks fool you! From the ever lovely Jewelera

I’m completely enchanted with everything in Blue Sea Blue. You will be too!

And it wouldn’t be summer without a great pair of sandals! Check out Feesk! Handmade and utterly drool-worthy!

Hi All! Happy June. It’s been a little while since I’ve done an installment of The Best of Etsy—but I’ve been thinking about you a lot! And I have a few amazing finds I can’t wait to share.

The  Best of Etsy: The Come to Tea List

I’m completely enchanted with Birdie Handmade. Gorgeous dresses for women and little girls. There is such whimsy and attention to detail. It’s a feast for your soul. Go look!

Molly Hatch! Wow. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t feature an artist who is basically sold out. But her work is simply divine and she is taking special orders. It’s worth your time to go stroll through her sold items and mark her shop for the future. Because, wow, oh wow, oh wow!

Janum is a new store on Etsy, but there is little doubt it’s going to be a HUGE success. The only down side I see is that these amazing dresses don’t come in MY size. And I really admire her photography work. Simply divine. (Note, this store is taking a break during July to prep for the fall/winter line. Last day to order is June 27th!)

One word: ENCHANTING! Go see it all at Louche Lab

And finally… a touch of vintage from The Soft Palate. (take a peek around this tiny store for other wonders!)

Ok, that’s it! Go have a cup of tea… or if you’re in warmer climates, a glass of Iced Tea!
