Recent Etsy Purchases

One of the best parts of selling on Etsy is that it allows me to make purchases from other shops. A couple of weeks ago I was the featured shop on Sunday Baker and that drove some new buyer to my shop. So in efforts to stimulate the economy I put some money back into the system.

I was on Twitter one evening when PixiSette posted this bracelet and I just had to have it. The bracelet is made of recycled glass and it is really beautiful. I love the way it feels on and wear it a few times a week! PixiSette was super sweet to deal with and I will be shopping there again.








Next in my stimulus package spending spree would be the lovely Threadmill. I can not seem to get enough of her wonderful handmade goodies. This time I got the Trellis Headband in bamboo. I love how it feels on and it stays on! My husband even commented on how good it looks. He said it looks like something I would find at Anthropologie. Threadmill you know I love you and your shop!!

Ok I have been drooling over this pillow and many others from Enhabiten. Something about hemp and the cross and the photos just has me totally enamored. I ordered it during the Shop Live on Etsy that was hosted by HeartHandmade. It was lots of fun and I got a great deal on the pillow. She quickly sent a message explaining the discount and refund process. A few short days later I had this incredible smelling beauty at my house. It happily found itself on my recently refurbished mid-century chair.




And there is more but I think I will have to do a Part Deux. Stop by and check out my shops. MonkeyThreads is where I sell vinyl decals for your walls and your car. Gopherella is my vintage finds shop. And you can follow me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/monkeythreads.
