I’m bushed

I’ve spent the entire day – in between walks with Stella – doing my Christmas shopping. But! I’m all done. Yay! All praise the Etsy-way! It’s going to be a Handmade Christmas under my tree (and other’s) this year.

It all started when I did a post for LiveMultiSport a week ago and found items for those sometimes hard-to-buy-for athletes in your life. I was amazed at the artsy goodness with the sports-inclined in mind I found.

Etsy - MultiSport Items

I’d originally hoped to make most of my presents this year. And then of course, Stella came along. And that went out the window. Babies take up an amazing amount of time … new moms stop laughing!

Crazy Stella!

So I went on an etsy shopping spree … cuz if I can’t make it myself, I’m gonna support my peeps (aka living artists). And oh the yummy things I found. Which I can’t post because, y’know, I want it to be a surprise!

But I found some things I would love too!

Like this:

Cat Wind Dancer

And this:

Decorative Shelf - from andrewsreclaimed

Or this:

Vintage Letterpress Tray

Actually luckylittledot had quite a few  I’d like items.

And then I found BigCartel … Oh. My. I had the vespers and had to be revived. So many pretty things. So little money!
