etsy window shopping

i could spend hours browsing the items on etsy
(and i often do...)
quite honestly, money has been very tight for us lately
the lack of rain, and the intense heat was loved by some
but not by us
the grass didn't grow
therefore, our customers didn't have to pay
(plus i hate being sweaty!)
another reason to love this grey rainy weather :)

also, with the cooler weather i was thinking that christmas is basically just around the corner
so why not start browsing for things to go on my wish list!
also, i'm not having kids yet, but to help get the bug out of my system, why not window shop for cute baby things (so, if anyone in my etsy circles has noticed the abundance of kid things.. i'm not pregnant, just itching!)

here are my current favorites, you will note an OWL theme
because, lets face it, everyone loves owls!
in real life, totally freaky
but in whimsical cartoon form
the best!

if any of you are feeling like spending some money, i would graciously accept any of these items as gifts ;) no pressure!

it's no secret that the bluejay has a very special meaning to our family. i thought this necklace was perfectly dainty and sweet.

i love calendars. i could have multiple calendars up in my office, my house, at any given time i have 2-3 agendar books going. it's kind of a problem.

 a bag to hide your yarn is a must when you have 2 cats just dying to play with it!

nothing says "helloooo autumn" like an owl wreath. but don't actually buy me this one, it's $75!!

happy window shopping :)

you are so right about owls, ashley! in real life - frightening! (don't you feel like they might claw your eyes out?...oh just me?...) but in design: super cute and friendly!

i noticed your owl love in your etsy circle collection- they so very sweet. I especially love the cupcake owls. mmmmmm
