EtsyInspired #64 ~ Barefoot Weaver

>> Friday, November 27, 2009


This week's EtsyInspired shop is Barefoot Weaver. This shop is FULL of woven yumminess. I absolutely love weaving because it's so intricate and beautiful. I think most people take for granted how much time it takes to make something like these awesome creations. One of the things I really love about this shop is the colors that are used on the items. They are bright and beautiful without being too over the top. Another super cool thing about this shop is that they offer woven jewelry which is something I've never seen before. Other items available in the shop include scarves, wraps, shawls, neck warmers and different sized cuffs.

This week, Barefoot Weaver is offering up this GORGEOUS flower as a prize. Seriously, I want to win this! ACK! It's so pretty! To play along, all you have to do is go to the Barefoot Weaver shop and pick any item to be inspired by. Make any creation that you'd like (card, cake, jewelry, song, dance, photograph, etc...) and post a link to your creation on the EtsyInspired #64 post on the EtsyInspired blog. Please link your creations by next Friday Dec 4, noon Pacific time to be entered in a random drawing to win. If you upload to SCS or PCP, please use keyword EIC64.

Along with our amazing prize from our shop, we have an awesome sponsor this week! It's 7 Kids College Fund! I love this store! They have everything! They are offering up a High Hopes Stamp (seen HERE) and a Green Apple Memory Box Notecards (seen HERE) for a prize!

Now, go be EtsyInspired!

EtsyInspired #63 ~ Sleepless Imagination

>> Saturday, November 21, 2009


This week's EtsyInspired shop is Sleepless Imagination. The store owner, Laura, is actually a really good friend of mine. We met on Etsy and she's one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. I love her fun and funky sense of color! Personally, I'm afraid to step out of the box. I always color the sky blue and the grass green. I really admire people who can think differently. Laura is one of those people. She is not afraid of color or combining different combinations. She uses all different sorts of shapes on her artwork too. In her shop, you can get birdhouses, jewelry boxes, magnets, gift tags, prints, ACEOs, and greeting cards.

EtsyInspired #62 - Quiltish from Alissa Jacobs

>> Saturday, November 14, 2009


This week's EtsyInspired shop is Quiltish by Allisa Jacobs. This is a really fun and cute shop specializing in zipper pouches, purses and baby gifts. What I really like about this shop is the amazing fabric selection she has! Cute and fun fabrics and even some that are organic. How awesome is that? I love the fun florals, the cute birds, the little ruffles she makes. And even the baby gifts are still really stylish, not too cutesy. Everything seems so fresh, I think it's the colors. There is definitely a lot of inspiration to be found here.

To play along with the challenge, all you have to do is go to the Quiltish by Allisa Jacobs shop and pick an item to be inspired by. Create any item that you'd like and post a link to your creation on the EtsyInspired 62 post on the EtsyInspired Challenge blog. Please link your entries by next Friday, Nov 20 by noon Pacific time.

Seriously, they have the most amazing ribbon. They have wide ric rac, scalloped edge ribbon, satin ribbon, silk ribbon, ribbon with cut outs, ribbon with pom poms, and the list goes on and on. Sigh...can you hear the dreaminess in my voice?? They are giving away this awesome back of Christmas ribbons shown here. How fun will this be for all your Christmas crafting?
