There is still time for Etsy!

Or, "I'll take Overdue Posts for $1,000, Alex."

Actually, my posting is way down since Thanksgiving because I've been pretty busy with my "one for you, one for me" Christmas shopping. I've been terribly naughty this year, so I can't really count on Santa.

The very best place for this kind of shopping is etsy. Since I'm always happy to hear about other people's etsy favorites, here are a few of mine:

I've blogged about Shop Clementine before. I have a pair of her earrings that I adore. If this necklace found its way into your stocking, you would be quite delighted, no?

This year I decided that Becca can turn the dollhouse bookcase that Grandaddy built into her own dollhouse. [We'll make room for the books on a shelf in our room.] I got her some dollhouse furniture at Hobby Lobby, but I was excited to find these tiny wooden dolls on etsy. She'll get to decorate them to make her own little dollhouse family.

I want one of everything at WhiteEarth Studio. This piece would make a fine start. N.B. -- There's a gift with purchase through the end of the year. Just sayin'.


The Kitchen Madonna is back in the saddle. You could give someone this apron and a copy of the P-Dub cookbook.

If you know someone who appreciates the art of paper cutting, you should check out TamaraDesigns. This piece arrives framed; she also has several pieces available unframed that are quite affordable. [As in, $8 affordable.] The little framed letters would be great baby gifts, too.

Just FYI, these picks were in no way compensated. I've bought, with my own personal bottomless riches, items from all but the last seller, and I can recommend them without reservation.
