PunkyJane - EtsyTwitter Team Shop of the Week


If you look back through my old "Friday Finds" posts, you'll realize that I LOVE the work of this week's EtsyTwitter Team SOTW (shop of the week), PunkyJane! I find it very amusing that this post falls right on top of a post I started out with her "Rock Star" pendant :) Be sure to check out the full SOTW post on the EtsyTwitter team blog, and check out PunkyJane's sites: Etsy, Twitter, & Facebook

I find myself sitting in the airport waiting for flights that will take me to New Hampshire for my annual Christmas shopping trip with my Mom and sisters. Seems like a perfect time to blog about some travel-themed Etsy finds! These items are from the following fantastic shops: BrightWall, happygolicky, madebymoe, and bowtago.

Wish List Wednesday!

I love the caramel color of this vintage samsonite bag, but it's the deer silohuette that seals the deal :) It's a perfect blend of handmade and vintage and is just one of many amazing items from GetReadySetGO. And yes, I've been on a bit of a kick lately with deer-themed items :)

Wish List Wednesday!

I found this fantastic robot bag in one of my long-time-favorite Etsy shops, Sugarlust! I can just picture myself on the way to work with my laptop stowed in this "geek chic" tote :)

Sneak a Peek at what's New from Smu!


This fall I've been expanding the selection of metals in my designs and have become very fond of using brass. The contrast of antiqued brass with light-colored beads like the lovely lilac purple ovals used in the beachy bracelet pictured here. In addition to my normal product shots using driftwood and flooring tiles for a background I've also taken photos of this bracelet on one of my wooden hand bracelet displays.
I have a set of 12 wooden hands (made by my Grandpa) that I use at craft shows, and they've become a real conversation piece with customers! Hopefully they will draw as much attention in my Etsy shop as they have in person at shows :)

In addition the the beachy brass bracelet, I have this pretty little blue seastar bauble pendant and several other items ready to list. Stay tuned to my Etsy shop for some great new stuff as we close out the week!
