Friday's Top 10 Etsy Buys!! - 5th Edition - Back to School!

2009-08-21T09:42:00.008-04:00

It's back to school time!! Getting my kids ready to go back to school is quite a task. From the uniforms to the notebooks, it seems as though the list will never end. I have been going through this back to school ordeal now for 9 years, and I'm getting bored with same old supplies. I decided to see what my fellow Etsians had to offer. What do you know, Etsy sellers came through for me again!! Check out all of the unique and different school supplies I found this week:)

1. Covered Recycled cans NOW pencil holders - by ChicEMbellish (pictured above)

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29599033

I love these!!! My kids are only allowed to take "certain" items to school, and of course super cute pencil holders are not on the list. However, I love these for our homework area. I think it makes doing homework less daunting:)

2. Blue on Blue, Art Smock sz 4/5 by StolenTime

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28760282

Art Smocks! Thank goodness the days of dad's old dress shirt are over!! I love the cute patterns and the easy on/off feature. No more buttons up the back:)

3. Lunch Box Love Notes 1a by scrappyky

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29622521

Seriously - are these not the cutest thing you have ever seen. It makes me want to pack a lunch for myself just so I can get one!

4. 9 x 11 Notebook Binder, Triple Crown, Blue Flower in Buttercream by CrownBindery

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28548246

I love the paper choices used for this notebook/binder! And they are laminated!!!! Easy to clean and super durable - a definate must-have for school.

5. Wild Pink Mushrooms Reusable Sandwich Bag by littlegreenpea

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=24487822

I love the whole concept behind these reuseable lunch bags. I try to be as "green" as possible and this could really help. I use A LOT of Ziploc sandwich bags and of course we throw them away when we are done with them. I love the fact that I can throw these in the washing machine instead of the garbage! The cute fabric choices make lunches less boring and the velcro closure is simple to use. LOVE THESE!!!!

6. Princess No Germs Allowed Hand Sanitizer Soap - Back to School by NoFussFabulous

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29631077

Ok, I know that this really isn't considered a "school supply", however, I have become a complete germ-a-phob! With 4 kids I FEAR germs. I firmly believe that this should be on the school supply list. And how cute is this??? A definate must-have for back to school!

7. Handmade Vintage Journal, Diary, Notebook, Sketchbook - Let's Talk by StoriesDivinations

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28800284

This one is for me - I love the vintage! The images really take me back to my childhood. I love how some of the pages from the book are included in this notebook.

8. Sweet Venice Pencil (Pen) pouch by CranberryLover

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27330607

All right, this one's for the kiddies! The fabrics are great, craftsmanship is spectacular! What a cute way to keep the kids stuff organized:)

9. Hannah the Owl Personalized Metal Lunch Box by myduckduckgoose

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29431177

This lunch box is so cute! I love the owl and the personalization. I also love the fact that it doesn't feature a commercialized character - I have plenty of those!!

10. Scrap Fabric Barrettes-Orangesicle by flyingfrogapparel

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29391348

Last but not definately not least - some adorable hair accessories! I love these handmade clips from one of my BNR buddies!! I love the fall colors and the back-to-school feel they give. You can really get the kiddies excited for school with a cute pair of hair pretties!

Jungle Monkey Scrapbook Page

2009-07-13T15:48:00.002-04:00

Yeah!! I finally finished it!! I got the idea for this page from the invitations, thank you cards, cupcake toppers and party set I have listed in the shop. I love it - and am having a really hard time not keeping it for myself!

Just Listed

2009-07-13T01:04:00.002-04:00

Some more new listings!! I orginally made these invitations for my daughters birthday party and I fell in love with them. The Jungle monkey invitations have been my biggest seller so far, so I decided to expand the collection with coordinating cupcake toppers, thank you cards and party set. I just couldn't end it there - I have a Jungle Monkey Premade Scrapbook page set coming tomorrow!!

2009-07-08T21:12:00.004-04:00

A few more new things add to the shop. I love the Pirate Treasure Invite! I think this is my new favorite. No, maybe my favorite is the new Princess Castle invite - Oh, I love them both and can't decide!!! I will definately have some matching Thank You's, cupcake toppers and party sets coming soon!

I made this Circus invite as a proof for someone and I think it turned out pretty cute! I love the primary color polka dots!

I also started adding the coordinating cupcake toppers, thank you's and party sets to the invitations already listed in the shop. I love the pineapples!!!

NEW 'POP-UP' BIRTHDAY GIFT CARD HOLDER!

2009-07-03T08:01:00.003-04:00

I made one of these cards for my father-in-law for his birthday. I personally think that it is super cute! However, it has to be given with a slightly larger envelope than the ones that fit 4x51/2 cards, because of it's thickness. Hope you like it!

THE NEW PIRATE PRINCESS STUFF!!!

2009-07-01T08:06:00.003-04:00

I love these! I struggled with the glitter though, I was originally going to go with the black diamond, but it just wasn't enough glitter, then I tried the ever famous stardust - too much glitter. My daughter suggested pink. They turned out great - go magenta!! I received a couple of custom orders this week, so I will be working on those, but after that - I'm thinking about a Pirate theme set, maybe a ship with a map behind it - who knows!!

I liked the ice cream invitation so much I just had to make some matching thank you's and cupcake toppers. I think I'm also going to make some tags and maybe a coordinating scrapbook page - we'll see!

In the meantime, check these out!

NEW STUFF

I am so excited about the new items I have just added to the shop! I had so much fun making the Ice Cream invitations. I haven't worked with felt all that much, so I wasn't sure how it would turn out - Surprise, Surprise - It looks great!

The Beach Party invitation was another story! I really like working with the adhesive/sand. However, it takes FOREVER to make these! They really turned out cute though, definately worth the effort.

We are headed to a family wedding this weekend and really wanted to make a card for the new Bride and Groom. Of course, I decided I should make two - one for the shop and one for the wedding! Turned out great - ribbon and all. I found some great pearl stickers and was able to ever so carefully adhere them to the die-cut cake - another painstaking adventure!

Here are the pics - enjoy!!!
