Recent Etsy favourites

[affiliate links]
One thing that hasn't changed during my recent hiatus is my love of Etsy - It is still my first port of call for unique gifts (for others and myself) and I can happily while away the hours browsing for future purchases.
I used to share my recent favourite items on a semi-regular basis so thought I would start doing so again, especially in the lead up to Christmas.  Though rest assured my normal Etsy Christmas gift guides will be posted in due course.
This hoop is exactly what it says it is- a work of art. I loved this the minute I saw it - it's reminiscent of the abstract art I am loving at the moment that is colour blocking with pops of texture but taken to a completely new level. 



 I don't know how I stumbled upon Emma's shop but I am so glad I did. Her loose watercolour style is the perfect match for these articulated creations. If like me, you are on the other side of the world and shipping is too expensive, you can get pdf versions too which are what I will be treating myself to.







Collage Journal with designed paper and collage pack - No. 5 £25.18

I have been following Lydia on Instagram (@_lydiarink_/ - go follow her, you will be amazed and inspired in equal amounts) for a few months now after her mini-videos were recommended to be following a Gelli Plate based query.  Not only does she do the most amazing image transfers, but her rust papers and collages are also awe-inspiring. I hope to take one of her classes in the future but for now, one of her journals is top of my list.


So there were just a few of this months favourite pieces - what have you purchased from Etsy recently?

Etsy : The perfect place for a unique Advent Calendar

Over the past few years, I have shared with you my favourite unique Christmas cards, stocking fillers and tree decorations, all available from Etsy This year I want to share my favourite advent calendars. Maybe like me, your children are growing up and so they will appreciate a unique advent calendar for the treat it is, or maybe you would like the joy your family members get from opening their gifts to extend beyond the one day, or perhaps (also like me)  you just want to treat yourself a little bit. The possibilities with Etsy really are endless, and there are many more options than those that I am sharing, so I would highly encourage everyone to grab a cup of their favourite hot beverage and spend a fun 30 minutes persuing these sellers, and many more besides that. For the foodies, I have a list of food-based calendars  that contain items such as pork scratching and cheddar cheese, alongside those containing the more traditional chocolate options.  Cheesies Advent Ca...

Products I have shared lately

I have been making more of an effort to share on social media but with that, the blog has fallen away. I am going to try and find some sort of middle ground so I thought I would start with things I have been talking about elsewhere on social media lately. To start with we have my new favourite book (albeit that it is for children). Mary and Frankenstein - Both the story and the illustrations and enthralling    And this is another gorgeous children's book that I got for the illustrations, though more specifically the colour palette. I think the pop of neon with neutral colours is something I want to experiment with.   what is your favorite illustrated children's book? Finally - my product of choice at the moment is Turner gouache though I am going to treat myself to some of these Shin Han hybrid paints this month to try them out I have set up an Amazon store with some of my favorites so it is easy for you to find everything I love in one place.   h...
