May Emerald Etsy Finds

Saturday, May 1, 2010

So I skipped April - did you notice?!?! Well April's birthstone is diamond and well that's white/clear so not alot of choices and well April was a busy month for us! I did my first vendor faire! It went well!

So here are my May - Emerald picks - green - not my favorite color - only wear it on St. Patricks day for the most part. Makes me think of tractors and Girl Scouts!

Had some trouble finding a variety of "emerald" items to share with you! I used etsy's Color Picker~ have you tried it?!?!? I think it's my new - I'm bored - way to search Etsy! Check it out here you can look for things using any color!

First up we have these super cute hair pins!!! Aren't they fabulous?!?!?!? Check out the Mediterranean shop here.

Next up we have Emerald Soaps!!! How cute are these?!?!?! I love them! They come in a super cute little gift box! Be sure to check out this and her other products at Famara Soaps Bath and Body

Now I don't particularly like Green but it is Kaden, my 5 year old's current fave color (if you have a child that age you know what I mean about current) So we have lots of green for him! He would have loved this bib from Scottie Acres.

Didn't I mention tractors? I am pretty sure I did! Well how about this super cute Emerald Crayon Tractor?!?!? - Other colors available at Ivy Lane Designs

Oh and in the spring about April/I always have to switch out my candle scents! In Fall and Winter I like to have homey warm baking smells but come Spring and Summer I love fresh fruity smells, so how about this one? Vanilla Lime from Auntie D's YUM!

And one last item - I have a feeling I will be getting one of these in the VERY near future for aforementioned son for his upcoming birthday!!!!! He will LOVE this shirt! I love personalized things - which you can tell if you look at MY etsy shop!
This little number is from Fly Duds - they have the cutest personalized items EVER! And really reasonable too!

So that's all folks ~ and happy National Scrapbook Day out there to all my scrappy pals!

March Aquamarine

Monday, March 1, 2010

Ok I will admit it! I always have trouble remembering March's birthstone!!!! To me it should be EMERALD!!! But it's not! Why is that?!?!? IDK and they didn't ask me!

But anywhoo....here are my March picks - I do like Aquamarine - it makes me think of the oceans by Hawaii where I honeymooned! I love the ocean and Hawaii! I have a great variety for you this month! I think you will enjoy them! Be sure to check out their shops!

Up first we have a Crayon Roll from Barefoot Tams - I love this fabric and her crayon rolls are amazing!!!!! I know - we have two!!!!! She has super fast shipping even from Canada and

EXCELLENT customer service!!!! She will work with you to get you exactly what you want!!!!

Next I have a little Suede clutch! Isn't it luscious?!?!?! I just want to stoke it! Would make a good make-up bag as well! It is from Marketa.

And here we have this stunning little tutu and matching hair clip! This is one of those things that makes me go I WANNA GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just don't think I could get my boys to wear this....or that my husband would let me!!!! And of course I love the mix of aqua with the purple! This is from Tiara's Boutique

Check this incredible piece out!!!!! So pretty! I just love it! I love the concept agate with stained glass! So unique so original so creative! I have been a long time admirer of Dana's Shop Henry Street Art. The pieces in her shop are just amazing! I love the swirls on this one!

Now just in time for easter a beautiful aqua pottery egg candy dish! How cute is that!?!??! And of course with the purple flocks around it I just couldn't resist! Check out more pictures at the shop LasPottery. She has a wonderful assortment of pottery pieces ranging from jewelry to dishes!

Winter's almost over (thank goodness!) but there's still time to enjoy this beautiful aquamarine shawl by Pav alu Designs. It is a rich deep aquamarine like the deep sea! I love it! Check out her shop for a variety of pieces such as hats, shawls and even purses!

The final piece is a aquamarine dangle bead that will fit your Pandora bracelet! It is not a Pandora bead but fits perfectly! They do not screw on so it's best to put them between other beads! It is from Katy Beads who I have ordered from! I had looked forever for beads for my pandora bracelet to represent my two boys. I liked birthstones but could only find PINK for October and my husband refused to have pink represent his boy! So Katy made me one using an opal crystal!!!!! She was wonderful to work with and had GREAT communication in getting me exactly what I wanted! I love my beads and plan to order more from her soon! And she doesn't just offer birthstones her shop has a wonderful variety of beads!!!! Check her out NOW~

That's all for now check back soon for other goodies!

. But alas I was not and I do not, so I can only drool over amethyst and come up with other reasons to buy all things purple! Here is this month's featured items that I found.

Crazie Gracie's Yarn Embellishment Flower - so fun and cute!

Viva La France's Tenacious Love Card - what a different take on Valentine's Day!

Authentic Arts by Jenny Hoople Ame thyst Earrings - I LOVE these! I WANT these! I NEED these!!!! Simple stunning beautiful!

A Latte Creations Purple Crochet Hat with Flower - CUTE! Oh so very very cute! See if I had a baby girl born in February she would HAVE to have this hat - oh heck if she was born any month she would HAVE to have this hat!

So that's February's Amethyst for you! Would you like to be featured in an upcoming month? All you need to do is comment with a link to your shop oh and hearting my shop doesn't hurt

. I will be honest - I don't usually feature jewelry cause um that's what I sell! But if it's stunning or unique or something I don't make I might! I also love to promo my "friends" internet or otherwise!
