Some of My Favorite Things: Etsy

For once, I am having a lazy Saturday. There are projects that should be worked on — Lack shelves to figure out, walls to be painted, packing to do at my own apartment — but I am sitting at the dining table at the boyfriend’s just surfing the web. He has quite a nice little set up over here with a nice bar height table and four banana leaf bar stools that I am super envious of. He should be so proud to have a girlfriend such as me to point out such awesome furniture to him. ;)

Anyway… In the process of being absolutely lazy today, I hopped onto Etsy for a bit of hand-made magic. I wanted to share the great looking products I found today.

First up is asmushomeinteriors‘ gorgeous Spa Blue Throw Pillow Cover, which I thought was just a great, upbeat and fun pattern:

I am in love with the combination of blue, green and brown and the pattern isn’t too girly, I don’t think. It would look great on a side chair in the living room, or that slipper chair in the corner of your bedroom. I’d pair it with a modern throw in brown with creme stripes, maybe even Chevron stripes to mimick the pointed tips of the flowers.

The next product I picked was a piece of art. I am a total sucker for nature photos with cool effects on them. Hence, ShadedMemories‘ photo print called “Tiny Drops of Light“:

Great thing about this photo? Along with all of her other 11×14 and 12×12 photo-prints, it’s on sale! I think photos like this add such warmth and serenity to a space. And because there are so many colors in the photo, it would fit in with pretty much any color scheme.

Or perhaps you are in the market for some pottery. While some of it can get pricey, there are some super looking finds on Etsy. Take seller shoshonasnow‘s fantastic looking Mod Porcelain Vase in yellow, black and white. Love those horizontal stripes!

Some white or red gerbera daisies would look super sweet in this little vase.

And one final piece that I am absolutely dying to get my hands on is kimwestad‘s adorable little Sweet Pea vase in yellow:

I don’t even know what I would put in this adorable little vase, but I gotta have it! The little dots on it are just… adorable!

OK, so I lied, kimwestad‘s collection of items on Etsy is so freaking fantastic that I have to share another one of her pieces. I am in dire need of a fruit bowl, my apples and oranges, limes and lemons keep rolling around everywhere — and the plastic veggie bags from the grocery store? Not so chic, let me tell you. So when I saw this piece, I knew that the Shell Serving Plate would be perfect for holding some fruits!

Not only is it cute and whimsical — that pale blue is gorgeous! You, my dear, will soon be sitting on my counter!

These are just a few small samplings of the items I found today on Etsy. Have you found anything recently that you feel you just could not live without? Please, share! And have a fantastic rest of the weekend! :)
