Things I love......tiny mushrooms

Oh Etsy stop bloody distracting me from making stuff for people to buy. When I look at you all I want to do is buy stuff from other people! *sigh*
So on that note here is my current Etsy crush! These lovely little mushrooms. They are made by a lady called Barbara and her Etsy shop is called Craftsy

I have to tell you I am obsessed! The only problem in true Libran style I can decide whch ones to get! I think I am going to go for the set of 3 mushrooms colored in bright magenta, red, and turquoise. I think? No wait I dunno, maybe I will have to spend the rest of the afternoon choosing!

Stuff I love.......cuckcoo clocks!

I have got a bit of a thing about cuckoo clocks at the moment! I have been looking out for a nice one on Ebay for a little while now. I really want one that does the "cuckoo" noise too. I used to have a very cute one when I was little. My Nan bought it for me for Christmas. Actually all the "girls" got a cuckcoo cock that Christmas. I am one of 14 cousins on one side of the family so my Nan used to do a job lot of presents at Christmas!! Anyway I am on the hunt. I am watching a nice one on Ebay at the moment. Will keep you updated!

Things I love......Caitlin Shearer

I have just discovered the art of Caitlin Shearer. Etsy is such a hotbed for great afordable art. I am in the process of filling our house with it!

My newest acquisition is "Secrets" by said artist. You have to go and have a look at her Etsy Shop as her stuff is really great.

Her art has a wicked darker edge than some of the sugary "portraits" I have seen of late. Just superb, I cant wait for my print to arrive.....I guess this may be a little while as its coming from Australia.

PS- Yes sorry the Super Stripe Scarf has sold out :(

I am going to try to do something similar for the summer. I'm on the lookout for a good fabric quality as we speak :)
