Friday Etsy Meanderings



ahhhh summertime....
I hope that you are enjoying your rosy summer where you are.
And if it's winter, that you are enjoying that too!
I've been rejoicing in the more original artists that etsy has to offer lately, so today's findings have a healthy
offering of those wonderful treasures.

the shades of verdigris as you've never seen it before! wow.
lovely. though it goes with out saying, I must say:  I love all of these....
Absolutely fantastic portrait:                                      portrait original - $85    behappynow
Cactus dahlias and ball jars are two of my faves in the whole world:

 And a Mobile anyone would love:                            Dreamy Rainbow Mobile - $49   babyjives
                                                                     


 

I love how these items are so modern and at the same time seem to recall an unknown past! stunning ... mysterious...

The first item has Mysterious Elements: just like any good Apothecary (the typos in the etsy title)

                                                                                        Thoughts of Home Pendant - $35    MaidOfClay






 Pink is one of my favorite colors; I love all its tonal changes and I swear that I see some grey in there! I might be the only one! haha :D   ..but I do love them together...
I wouldn't just wear this lovely dress to Prom:                                           1950s Vintage Prom Dress - $248  starletvintage
