Am I the only one who has just realized how amazing etsy is? I'd been hearing about, everyone talks about it, and I had looked at it here and there, but never too much. Why? I don't know!
Yesterday Jamie posted about this shop which has some extremly adorable things. So I went and checked it out, and found something fabulous that I ordered for Steve for his birthday! I can't post the pic, in the extreme off-chance that he looks at this (I don't think he reads this regularly, but I think he has in the past), so you will have to wait until after 13 September! In the meanwhile, go check out Megan's shop and see what amazing things she has.
I wish I was so talented...
a reminder to myself

- I grew up in New England and now I live in Washington, DC where I work for the federal government. I've lived abroad in Luxembourg, Poland and Canada, and would like to live abroad again. I love to travel and fill my passport with stamps. I read a lot and want to build libraries where they don't have any. I have a lot of cookbooks and love using them. I have an adorable godson named Jackson. I also sponsor two little girls through World Vision; six-year old Majlinda in Albania and two-year old Boikokobetso in South Africa. I love cupcakes, poppies, chocolate chip pancakes, peonies, strawberries and deviled eggs. I collect tea towels, teapots, Boleslawiec Polish pottery, vintage sewing supplies, Peter Rabbit books/pieces and Russian babushka nesting dolls. My two favorite childrens books of all time are Miss Rumphius and The Velveteen Rabbit and I would like to write my own books someday. I'm learning to quilt and have become a bit obsessed with buying fabric! I also love red shoes and wear them frequently. Steve, my boyfriend, keeps me sane most days, except for the ones when he's the one making me crazy! All in all, life is good and keeps me on my toes.

Etsy = greatest invention ever!
i only found etsy from jamie too a while back. such a great place. i've gotten several friends bday presents from there :)
it is definitely a veryyyy fun website to browse. My roomie's mom introduced me to this, it's amazing!
Yay! I'm so glad you ordered something! I love doing these features because sometimes the perfect thing is already out there and no one realizes it until someone point it out. It's so much fun.
Jamie is always talking about different Etsy shops. I rarely go there on my own, but when I do, I find soooo many things that I want to buy. I could spend an entire paycheck there.
I know. I love their unique stuff. totally cute.
I'm just now getting into it as well! I love it!
