Random Etsy Wednesday - Stamps Stamps Stamps Stamps

I do love stamps - I have so many ideas of stamps I want to make - but never enough time (or the dining room table at the moment) to sit down and make them. I also love buying stamps and have a small collection which I would love to make bigger. These ones by karaku on etsy are definately on my list:

(I LOVE THIS ONE!)

Karaku are also on the web here and facebook here

Random Etsy Wednesday - Pencil and Paper

When was the last time you actually sat down with a pencil and paper? In today’s society of iphones, ipads, laptops, emails I rarely write things down – I do however love paper and pencils, and pens and erasers…. So today’s random etsy’s theme (is that an oxymoron?) is pencils!

kawaii koi - a set of 10 washi-coated pencils by  maoiliosa: “10 beautifully hand-wrapped #2 graphite pencils featuring kawaii (cute) koi fish, each unique pencil is approximately 3.5 inches long (no eraser). made with gorgeous, genuine japanese washi paper. packaged in a gift box, and includes a gift tag for easy giving”

Sketchy Pencil Thank You Note Set by FierceMally: “Set of eight white 4-7/8"x3-1/2" (4Bar) folded cards packaged in a cute cheesecloth drawstring bag. Cards are blank inside and come with red envelopes.”

Know It All No. 2 Pencil Set by Paperpastries: “Now, with more knowledge :) Perfect to give away to a student, teacher, or know it all in your life! Set of 6 pencils. Comes in a 5 x 8 muslin bag.”

Better Together - Pencil and Paper by Earmark: “Horizontal, folded card, 4.25 x 5.5, the "Pencil and Paper" card features a delightful, Earmark original, illustration. Simple and sweet this card is perfect to give to the one you love any time of year!”

Why not go old fashion and buy some pretty pencils and note cards

Random Etsy Wednesday - My little man's birthday inspiration

Today’s Random Etsy Wednesday is not quite so random. My little man’s 1^st birthday is fast approaching so I am starting to consider some decorating and theme ideas. There is so much out there to look at and it is a bit daunting to know where to start. So I thought I would trawl etsy for some inspirations. Some of the ones that got me thinking:

Magical Star Garland by PaperKlip

mini BuNTiNg PARTY FLAGS -- Russian Nesting Dolls and Cupcakes by STUDIOofWHIMSY's (little girly but super cute)

Under the Sea birthday party - Personalized DIY printable CUPCAKE WRAPPER AND TOPPER SET by chickabug

ORIGINAL Cake Bunting KYLIE by KikiLaRu

As this is our first 1^st birthday and never having been to one before I would love any advice on where you go for your party inspiration and what great 1^st birthday parties have you been to and what made them great?

Random Etsy Wednesday

So I have decided (and I am going to do my very best to stick to it) to make Wednesday’s posts – “Random Etsy Wednesday”. The idea is I post about random goodies I have come across on Etsy during the week. To kick us off:

Build Your Own Lego Crayon Set of 50 by GaddyNipperCrayons

“Fun, Custom, Recycled Lego Crayons” available in 12 standard colours + pastel colours. Each crayon measures 1.75” x 75” and is approx 5” thick. Better yet – use them as party favours and GaddyNipperCrayons will kindly package them into sets for you with a customized label!

If lego isn’t your thing – you can get them in cupcakes, hearts, starwars, spiders, elmo – I could go on – but why not just have a look yourself!

Fat and Grumpy F.ck Bunny, Apple Green Fleece by spidercamp

These ones are more for the adults (OK definitely for adults) – but what can I say they caught my eye and most of us have at least one family member or friend who we know would appreciate it!

Spidercamp have some weird and wonderful bunny’s and stickers (!?)

owl love you forever no. 4 - tree bark by seekatesew

Best finish off on a sweet note – these cute as pie owl softies would be a perfect addition to any kids room, couch, shelf…. Wherever really. See Kate Sew also has some super sweet baby girl pinafores.

Ok – that is enough randomness for one Wednesday.
