Oh Etsy: 28.11.12

I was going to start the count down to Christmas with this week’s Oh Etsy post, but somehow I ended up spending a couple of hours drooling over beautiful linen and canvas inspiration. So classic and beautiful. It reminds me of freshly pressed laundry, all clean and soft and… okay, I have no idea what freshly pressed laundry feels like. I make a point of purchasing fabrics that require very little maintenance because I detest ironing that much!  But I can imagine how lovely it must feel to have freshly pressed linens! Lets be honest, I’m going to have to do a lot more ‘growing up’ before I start ironing linens. In the meantime I’ll just continue to lust after everything you see here and dream in cream and beige…ONE / Burlap Ottoman / Lovintage Finds / $89
TWO / Hand Felted Acorns - Set of five / City Crochet / $12
THREE / Kitchen Apron / Studio Patro / $68
FOUR / Turkish Bath Towels / Design by Soft Tovvel /$32.50
FIVE / ‘Hello’ Tote Bag / ArtisEverything / $17

Oh Etsy… 30.05.12

There was no way I could choose a favourite item out of this weeks ‘Oh Etsy‘ collection. I came across so many brilliant and unique items!For example I adore the idea of a knitted light (#1), such a simple, stylish and clever concept! But then, if we’re speaking of clever; the re-purposed industrial stands (#6) are so great! They especially look awesome as a set! And while I love everything in the iluxo store, I couldn’t go past the Rainyday wall clock (#5) - it is the perfect juxtaposition to the ‘You are my Sunshine’ pillow case (#3) which would sit perfectly on my couch.  I would totally have a couple of giant letters (#2) in my living room as well… I could kick back and admire them with a glass of wine from a lovely vintage wooden wine rack (#4). You See! I simply cannot choose a favourite! It is just too difficult!
