Etsy Rocks!

If you don't shop, or at least browse, on Etsy, you should. Why? Because it is totally awesome and because I have a Favorites list there, in case you want to buy me something.

Borrowed from the Etsy FAQs:

What is Etsy?
Etsy is an online marketplace where you can buy and sell items that are handmade,as well as vintage goods and crafting supplies.

How do you pronounce Etsy?
Etsy rhymes with the girls' name Betsy.

If you want to check out my favorites:

1. Go to www.etsy.com
2. Click on Buy
3. Scroll down and click on Connections
4. Find User: katgill111
5. Click on the little body and select Profile
   
6. Click on Favorites

You can look at Favorite Items or Favorite Sellers. By the time you look at my favorites, the items I chose might be gone, but I typically like similar stuff from the favorite sellers. Some of my favorite sellers were chosen when shopping for other people, so don't assume I want everything you see.

You can also click on the items to see who else likes it. Scarfmaker and I like the same purse; she (or he) has excellent taste.

No Such Thing As Too Many Purses

Ben is in Portland this week. Since he is a very good husband, he agreed to go by Queen Bee Creations and purchase bags for a friend and me. I've included some pictures that he took at the store. They didn't end up having the bag my friend wanted (she'll order it online), but he did buy me a messenger bag (brown flap with little birds on it). Once I've had it for a couple weeks, I'll provide a review.

Pretty Umbrella

One of the latest additions to my long list of shopping sites is para*umbrella.

Since I don't live in the pacific northwest, an umbrella is probably not the best fashion accessory investment, but come on, they are so pretty.
