May 20th, 2009 by tiniestj I am fantastically fond of felt. Needle felting, pressed-fiber felt, felt in all forms. It’s fuzzy and comforting, yet substantial and strong. Here are a few fabulous felty finds from Etsy.

If you shop on Etsy, or have thought about shopping on Etsy, you should take a few seconds to take the Etsy Shopper Survey. They really do want to make the shopping experience as good as possible and feedback will help. It is anticipated that the survey will be live through May 22nd.

Just a reminder: Mother’s Day is May 10th and Father’s Day is June 21st.

I just wanted to share the amazingly enchanting monogram cross stitch that I just received from Erin at treefox. I am completely in love with it! Erin has the loveliest shop, filled with wonderful cross-stitched designs. I am so excited to find a home in my home worthy of something so precious.

April 24th, 2009 by tiniestj Many cultures have many different names for the art of cut paper: Scherenschnitte (German), Kirie (Japanese), Sanjhi (Indian) and Papel Picado (Mexican) are just a few. In honor of etsy day and my love of silhouettes, I’ve chosen some papercuttings that range from semi-traditional and folky to super-intricate and modern. All of these amazingly delicate works of art are cut by hand.
