..wooden it be nice..

Lately I have really been digging things that a hand crafted from wood.  I am such a dork, I even like the old station wagons that have the wood panels, like....

 or better yet...

Couldn't you just see me rollin around in one of those?

Well, here are a few other translations of this current infatuation of mine that I have found on etsy.

..favorite fall skirt..

A while back I did a collection on Polyvore for a contest entry, and I felt like I had surely already shared it on the old blog here, but I think I may have gotten sidetracked before I did, oops.  I was just looking at some of my saved Etsy favorites and I was reminded of that collection where I fell for the colorful plaid pleated skirt.  The particular one featured sold quickly, but I found a few others that are contenders for my heart as well.

Here are a few of my favorites from Etsy

Happy Friday!

..A Beautiful Day for a Picnic..

I made my first Etsy Treasury today.  I have been daydreaming of nice weather and picnics a lot lately. Just wanted to share :)

..pretty things..

I am obviously not the only one that feels this way, but I love Etsy!  I find myself purusing on a regular basis.  As I was looking back at some of the things in my favorites list.  I figured I would share some of the lovely things that I would love to have if I had the available cashola.

And this stuff isn't sold yet, so please relieve me of the temptation ;)

Have a great weekend everyone!

..sears in the 70s..

I have been neglecting my picture taking lately, which includes outfit posts and shop updates.  I guess I was kinda burned out. So, I better get back in the swing of things. Here is a long overdue, week later outfit post.  This dress was my Granny's.  It is a rockin' early 70's polyester shirtdress from Sears.  I love the summery vibe, and apparently summer has decided that it is its time.

..silence in the library..

With the new season of Doctor Who on, we have been really nerding out lately.  Not that that is unusual in any way; but, anyway I was thinking about an episode called Silence in the Library that was few seasons back which was set on an abandoned library planet .  It was a great and creepy episode, and I love the idea of a planet of bookshelves.  I was inspired to put together some of my favorite items from Etsy with the library theme. Enjoy..

Well, I think I may go do some reading now :)

..inherit goodness..

Spring is finally making its way and everywhere there is an emergence of color.  This is also happening in my wardrobe.  Not that I was evading color, but I do feel like being way brighter than my usual.  I have been wanting to wear this dress which is one of the ones my Granny made and wore. So, after several months of letting it hibernate in my closet, I was finally ready for a major dose of color.  I freaking love this one!  It is so pretty and comfy. 

If you haven't noticed, I am slowly building up my etsy shop!  I am trying to add new things every day so keep checking back, and if you have never explored the whole of Etsy  you really should.  It is full of tons of amazing things.  I actually got the earrings in this post from an etsy seller, SimplyDifferent.
