I Heart Etsy, More Owls.

I love owls.
I love Etsy.
Combine the two and you have hours of browsing through some of the most beautiful and creative owl items....
One of each please?

I Heart Etsy - Owls

I apologize for this post.
I'm tired.
I lack the skills to form coherent sentences....
It may have taken me a long time to write just these few!
My little boy was kind enough to wake me at 5am this morning, after a short burst of 3hrs of sleep.
I have a feeling today will be another coffee day.

Anyway!
I love owls.
Check out the cute owl stuff I have found on Etsy, just click on the image to go to the link.
:)























And this has nothing to do with owls but I am in love! So gorgeous!

I Heart Etsy - Craft Patterns

Etsy isn't just an amazing wonderland of handmade goodies.
It has another side (one of many).
One which is full of crafty genius' who sell their designs.
You can buy patterns for almost anything.

Patterns for cute little stuffed Woodland Forest Creatures



Patterns to sew your own little monkey pants for kids



Or a gorgeous baby hat



Maybe one for when they get bigger, like this Bomber Hat



If I knew how to knit I would definitely buy this beautiful pattern for a Parisian Twist Headband



And lastly, this beautiful Mademoiselle Coat is just too adorable!

I Heart Etsy - For The Kids

It is toy sale time.
I have been bombarded with sale, sale, SALE!!!
I have not been shopping.
There are a few things I would like to get for the kids for Christmas.
But none of those glossy catalogues have anything as beautiful as these gorgeous things I found on Etsy...

I am reduced to sighs of "oooohh, aaaaahh, oh how adorable!" whenever I see baby photos like this....And the super cute Baby Elf Hat adds that extra "awwwww"


Have I told you I have a thing for robots?
No?
Well I do.
I love this Crochet Beanie With Robot Applique



I know there are onesies and shirts with ties on them in every colour combination imaginable.
I get it, it has been done.
But there is something about this Slate Grey Onesie With Tie that just has that "wow" factor.
And even better is you can choose from a vast array of tie colours and patterns!



Another thing I know has been done and done and done all over again....
Ribbon blankets.
But come on, this Dino Dudes one is just SO CUTE!



Now this shirt, it was one of those things I see and go "Ohgeewizzaroo that is SO COOL!!!"
Who could not love this Etch-A-Sketch T-Shirt??



Another thing I have noticed in all these toy sales is how obsolete wooden toys have become. It is sad to see them replaced by gaudy brightly coloured plastics.
I have so many fond memories of when I was younger, playing with my nana's wooden block set. The noise they would make as the clattered to the ground after another of my unrealistic architechtual attempts.
(Yes I was a girl who loved to make buildings)
But on Etsy, they still exist!
I fell in love with these gems...

Whale & Waves Play Set



Honey Comes From Bees



And these Woodland Forest Bookends are just too cute to miss!



So now I must drag myself away from the pull of Etsy.
Not an easy feat.....
