Reference Library for Kiosk

Check out Andy’s shop on Kiosk…  full of lots of neat (mostly vintage) things.  If I had $75 to spare, I’d surely buy this sign.

Blah

Sorry for the lack of posts… not feeling inspired by much on the web…   Also, getting ready to host Thanksgiving at our place this year with friends.  I hope to post more gift ideas as they hit me, or rather, as I stumble across them slowly.  🙂   Here’s one Etsy shop that I suggest you look at… I kind of love everything.  She’s made it around the blog circuit a lot lately, so I wouldn’t be surprised if her prices go up.

Sweet gifs

Oh animated gifs, how do I love thee?

Nice

This is a cropping of an image from Face Hunter… I love this necklace!  Wish I knew who made it.

Etsy find: Miniature Rhino

Why am I posting so many Etsy finds?  So that you, dear reader, may find some Christmas presents that are either handmade, or lovingly sought out vintage items from resellers!  I’m loving these samplers below, as well as these pillowcases which say in German “I can sleep when I’m dead.”

Ok, so these are booties, not boots, (perhaps a small technicality) but I love/want them…

Apolis FW08

A nice line for you gents.  Also, my friend Pat is the model in these photos!  So weird to come across lines that friends have modeled for.

Etsy find: Dutch Door- new prints

Just found that Dutch Door is doing letterpress prints of all 50 states birds and flowers paired up.  Charming idea… perhaps a good gift for someone you know?  Looks like so far they’ve released New York, California and Illinois.

Etsy find: NB’s Closet

Ok so yes… lasercut jewelry is totally played.  However, I did laugh at this necklace I found on Etsy of the Nintendo Powerglove… “I love the Powerglove… it’s so bad.”  If this doesn’t ring a bell, race to your nearest video rental shop and rent The Wizard (starring Fred Savage, Christian Slater, and Beau Bridges… oh and the annoying Jenny Lewis when she was still a child actor).
