Etsy.com

After hearing about etsy.com for some time, I actually made a few purchases from sellers on the handmade/craft/small buisiness/artisan stuff website. I liked that I received personal communication from the sellers - both of them sent handwritten notes in with the items I ordered. I am looking out for things, other things, to buy on the site, but I am finding it difficult to find stuff that I like. There are a few ways to search the site for items or sellers or whatever, but I don't find them very helpful. Ah well I'm still looking.

The first items I bought were two beautiful felt (I think) brooches from Kate Broughton after a recommendation somewhere on the web, I think it was notcoture.com


Wolf brooch


The second lot of things I bought were some of these beautiful plastic animal rings from soop but bought through etsy, I can't recall where I heard about - oh no, I saw these rings on the online shop lastfootwear.com, er I think I did anyway, I can't remember anything anymore. All spidery, webby business.
soop rings

As I am a duck these things have to be adapted for me to make wear of them, maybe the rings can be adapted into some kind of headwear and I shall find some way of wearing those brooches.
