Five Fab Finds



SWAKDESIGNS
Today on my blog are five items from Etsy that I came across this morning and loved. Some would make great gifts and some would be perfect for just ME. Oh selfish beast I am.....without further.....babble, here we go! 

The first find was this awesome carpenter piece. It stole my heart this morning; perhaps I am biased because my dad is carpenter but nonetheless, it is unique. I HEART CARPENTERS comes with free shipping (US customers).
 
How Convenient of You
Another great find was this really
cute and fun ACEO painting by Catcalls on Etsy. If you're on twitter, you'll want to follow her. Her tweets are really funny and if you own a cat you'll understand why. 
She is also really frrrrriendly :)

BLACK CAR FABRIC
Now ALL of you know (and if you don't it's high time you did) that I am a fabric addict. All sizes, types, colors, and prints I love it all! EVEN BURLAP. Having said that, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this print being sold by The Needle Shop.  I may have to get it today. It just rocks. Period. Possibly a new print for a new Stinky, Dude Bag. Reminds me of my old muscle car I had in my 20's. Don't ask; long story for a much different blog.

Amethyst Bracelet
I am a huge fan of amethyst (keeps my neurotic self from going completely bonkers--I swear by it) and this bracelet by Dotti of TrueSelfStudio is just divine! I love it. Such a pretty shade of purple!
Dotti is a doll too. Pop into her shop and say HI! :)

PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS TEE
And last, but VERY certainly not least is this incredibly outstanding tee-shirt that I must get for my husband (H.S. Chemistry teacher) for father's day. It is so perfect and disgustingly innovative (I mean disgusting in a good way like "it's so friggin' cute it's disgusting"--like kittens, know what I mean?) and I have to admit some jealousy here on my end re: their creativity. The shop is called Dark Cycle Clothing.  What's even worse is that they're a husband/wife team. OH that jealousy rearing it's ugly head! I love their shop and you need to go look at this shirt (and their other gear--and then go get as jealous as I am right now) but don't buy it cause it's MINE.

That's what I'VE GOT for today. Am off to go post some new things to my own shop.  
Love and hugs from the WEST WOODS of MAINE.....
