This Week's Purchases on Etsy!

Since I was bereft of an idea for blogging all week, I've decided to tell you about the cool things I got in the mail this week! I sell but I love to shop too!


1. From Meandmomscrafts on Etsy, I got a set of 6 rainbow colored facial scrubs. I love these since they are larger than some of the others I've bought (each one is 4-1/2" across). They are beautifully made and I got all 6 for only $3.00!


2. I love Aromalite and order regularly from her. This week's package was clamshells in the Fragrance 'Best Friends'. I've bought a couple of things in this fragrance and it has become one of my favorites. But she has more fragrances than I could possibly list here...you'll just have to check it out for yourself. The clamshells break into 6 pieces and are $3.00.



3. Same seller, different shop! Aromalite also has a shop called PetiteMerci where she sells the prettiest little Thank You cards. She made an extra effort to find flamingo paper so she could make some special cards! I've searched high and low for flamingo thank you cards and I finally have them! These are a bit larger than mini cards (3" x 2-3/4") and you get 8 of them for $4.00.




4. I have another favorite place to buy beads and other jewelry making supplies. I've bought from Jo's Jewels many times and never been disappointed. As an added bonus, she's an awesome lady to know. This week I got some very pretty porcelain flowered beads and amazingly bright aqua marquis beads. (The neutral color mix in the pic was compliments of Jo!) The prices are right and vary with the items, but the ones I bought were just $2.50 each.



5. My final package this week is from KanYoFuse and I just cannot say enough about these amazing pendants! I actually bought two of them, but when the package arrived he had sent four! I am hard pressed to decide which one is the prettiest, but I do know they will all be a part of my regular jewelry rotation!! Each one comes all ready to use including a large bail that will fit on just about any chain or cord you choose. Prices in his shop range from $8.00 and up. I paid $10 each for the two that I bought.



So now you know where all the cool kids shop! Visit these great shops and see for yourself!!

  3. Oh my gosh! My husband got me a pendant from KanYoFuse for Valentines day, and he sent extras! They are absolutely beautiful! I had been admiring his shop for a while, and I am sure I will end up with more of his pendants soon.
