Friday Favorites.

It's Friday and it's time to party! I've been feeling even more mad love for Etsy this week than usual. Here we go!

8x12 Print Red by sandragrafik

I've always been more than fascinated by Little Red Riding Hood, and I love this interpretation. 

Conjoined Teeth Ring by charlotteburkhart

Is it just me, or is there something oddly romantic about this ring? I know it may be a bit creepy for some people's tastes, but I adore it! Actually, all of the rings in this shop are entirely beautiful.
Passport Cover Our Solar System by TwoPolkaDots

I've been thinking about getting a little cover for my passport so it won't get bent. I like this solar system one a lot!
Parrot Green Brook Earrings by botny.

I've been seeing earrings by Botny everywhere on Etsy over the past couple of weeks. Her shop is exploding with goodness right now! I think this pair is the most "me".
Sticker Set by SarahMcNeil

And last but not least, Sarah McNeil's wonderful sticker sets! Her illustrations are so charming. I'd like to send them to penpals when I write love letters.
Hope you enjoyed my Etsy treasures I found this week. Take care!

Friday Favorites.

Hi! Again, I'm sorry I haven't been writing as often as I should be. This week has been all about dealing with my new sugar-free diet instructed by my naturopath. It's been tricky! I miss eating cake! But, as I write this while eating my rye bread with hummus, and drinking a blueberry smoothie Robert made me... life is good. Here are some beautiful things I've found on Etsy this week!

JELLYFISH Tri Blend Tank by ZenThreads

Definitely need this for when the weather gets warmer. I'd love to wear it on a date to the Aquarium.
Zombie Leg Love Art Print by burntfeather

I've been a fan of Fee of burntfeather for many years. Her Etsy shop is one of my favourites. I'd die if someone got me this!
Ruffle Fashion Crochet Necklace by A Common Thread

This dainty necklace is so gorgeous. I'd pair it with a little black dress.


Raw Purple Amethyst Crystal Necklace by CAMPandQUARRY

One of my first purchases on Etsy was one of CAMPandQUARRY's necklaces. They are perfect!

3 Mermaid Cards by theFiligree

And the little girl in me loves these mermaid cards. I think it may be time to revisit my Hans Christen Andersen book of fairy tales.

Friday Favorites.

It's that wonderful time again! Time for me to share the Etsy love and show you some of my favorite things I've found over the week. I enjoy doing themes for these so I thought I'd use my love of coffee/tea for inspiration! Enjoy.

Set of Two Charming Little Home Mugs by CircusBearVintage

Kaylah is my Etsy hero. I really look up to her and wanted to show some love towards her new  shop! There are so many beautiful things listed in there, but I especially love this set of adorable mugs. 
Cup Beach Print by teconlene

I'd love to hang this print right above where we keep  our  Bodum coffee maker.
Herbal/Chai Tea Kit by CraigsMarket

I really love the way their loose leaf teas are packaged. They'd make a fantastic gift!

Octopus Tea Ball Charmer by OwensAcres.

How could I miss this wonderful little octopus? I drink so much loose leaf tea I may have to pick him up.
Crochet Teacup Blue by SheepishKnitCrochet

I've been a fan of Meredith's shop and blog for quite some time. I love all of her crocheted tea cups, but especially the blue one!




Have an adventurous weekend!

Friday Favorites.

To celebrate the opening of my shop, Octopie, I have themed this week's Friday Favorites after the creature I adore the most in the animal kingdom. Hope you like it!

This headband from JanineBasil is adorable! I'd love to wear it to work one day.

I've been looking for a ceramic coffee cup for awhile and one by sewZinski might do the trick!

I've had my eye on this shirt by isotope for ages. Lovelovelove it.

Can you imagine hosting a dinner party with these plates by BlackBaroque? Divine.

Now that Vancouver is super chilly, I'd love to curl up with this scarf by ZenThreads.

Have a great weekend!

Friday Favorites.

My Little Pony Set by Vintagetoygal.
This week on my Friday Favorites I thought I would take a step back to the 1990's and share some of my favourite toys I played with as a child! Recently I've tried to begin collecting those types of toys again as an adult and I feel joy all over again. I adore the My Little Pony set above and hope to add it to my own pony collection!

1990 Super Nintendo Controller&Games by Irishgirl94


I remember the day my Mom, younger brother and I went to the store to buy our Dad his first Super Nintendo. Kris and I quickly took over the thing and played Super Mario World for hours on end. I still have the thing and play it a lot! My favorite games are Mortal Kombat and Donkey Kong Country.

Polly Pocket Heart-Shaped by ThePantages.


I had what seemed like hundreds of Polly Pocket homes and accessories that I absolutely adored. I'd get so lost in their little worlds. I'm so sad they don't make them like they used to. My Mother recently surprised me and mailed me a big bag full of them so I can relive my happy childhood days.

Purple Goosebumps Tote by Frankendollco.
Okay guys, I seriously want this rad Goosebumps bag. Back when Goosebumps were "in" I swear I'd read them all more than once. I can vividly remember certain stories that gave me the frights. Even as a kid I was really interested in horror and monsters, watching "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" on television, and secretly wishing I was part of the Midnight Society. 

Rock Em Sock Em Robots by LOUIEetMOI.
And last, but certainly not least, I thought I'd share a toy I also wished for but never ended up owning, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots! Thankfully a friend of mine named Tianna has a wonderful vintage Etsy shop where I can purchase them! Be sure to check out her shop for fabulous finds!

Hope you enjoyed a blast through my past! Support Etsy businesses!

Friday Favorites.

Unplug Note Card by drkennedyjones 
Introducing my first weekly posts...Friday Favorites! Every Friday I will be posting a handful of my favorite Etsy finds from different shops. I am an avid customer on Etsy and am always on the lookout for great shops. This is my way of spreading Etsy love around! My first round up of items are sure to delight you! Have a look...
Forest Print by caitlinsuzanne
I love how mysterious this print is. Caitlin Suzanne was my very first customer when I opened up my vintage shop, and I absolutely love her work. I'm feeling very drawn to forests this week.
Time to Get Things Done Mug by KinShipPress

Kin Ship Press is one of my all-time favourite shops on Etsy. I love all of their designs. I recently bought my boyfriend one of their pillowcases, and it was perfect! I know if I had this awesome mug it would make it much easier to get my work finished.

Pencil Pouch Woodgrain and Owls by The Dainty Squid
Kaylah from The Dainty Squid is one of my Etsy/blogging heroes. And her pouches and clutches are so adorable. Hopefully one day I will be a proud owner of one of her creations. For now, I will simply sit back and admire.

2012 Botanical Photographic Calendar by MilesOfLight


And be sure to start this year off right with one of Miles Of Light's beautiful calendars. I particularly adore the botanical garden version, but there are plenty of other lovely designs to choose from.

What are some of your favourite shops? Please share! I promise I'll look at them all.
