What I Love Friday

One of my favorite ways to relax after a hard day at work is to come home, curl up with my puppy and surf the web. I love getting on my computer and looking up whatever I'm obsessing about at the moment. I love and obsess about a lot of stuff, so every Friday I'm going to post a list of 5 things I love about whatever "theme" I'm obsessing about at the moment. Today's "what I love Friday" post is about Etsy stores. I LOVE Etsy! So here are 5 Etsy stores that I love right now, and one item from each store that I love (it was reallllly hard to pick only one item from each store.
  1. To start with, a really good friend of mine has this wonderful little shop on Etsy called Sam Wish where she sells vintage and upcycled clothes. I'm loving this sweater from her shop, its perfect for the coming winter season!
  2. I have an obsession about steampunk jewelry. I came across this shop,Victorian Curiosities, one day when I was browsing through Etsy and fell in love. I really love this necklace made from a watch.
  3. I've been on the hunt for a while for a nice leather dog collar for Lily. When I came across the collars made by Cali Girl Collars I knew I just had to have one. I think I'd like to get this collar for Lily.
  4. Eye Pop Art makes these super cool mandala art and accessories made from recycled vinyl records. I'd love to hang this clock up in my place.
  5. I'm obsessed with sea creatures and this is one of the first shops I found on Etsy, Noadi. She makes the most wonderful little sea creature jewelry from polymer clay. I have this little guy hanging from the rear view mirror of my car :).

Well these are just a few of the stores I love on Etsy. I'd love to hear what stores you like on Etsy too, so dont be shy to leave me comments. Happy Friday :)!

Thanks for adding my store to the list (: The others are cute too, I suprisingly liked the steampunk one the best! I didn't expect to like it because when I heard "steampunk" I thought of ugly metal stuff but it turned out to be pretty cool. By the way, how's the job thing? Any news on moving????? I just can't wait 'til you're closer!!!

Ohh, no! Well I hope you get the job. If you need help moving, be sure to let me know! We had to move by ourselves so I know how rough it is! Plus I've got a huge car to stuff full of crap! But seriously, I'd be happy to help.

About the post things, I'm not sure how you would add it to a "page" because that is like a post in itself. The buttons I have on my side bar are just links to the "topic". For example, if I were to search "diy" on my blog, it was show me all the "diy" posts so I copied that link and attatched it to the picture I made for DIY. Do you get it? Here's the link I use for diy: http://mylatestobsession3.blogspot.com/search/label/diy . And then you can replace "diy" with whatever topic. One word though (i don't know how to do two!). And then when you right a post, it'll have a box at the bottom for labels and you can put "diy". I hope this helps! Let me know (:
