DAY 4 - CrankyCats - otherwise know as Indigo Art
http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=21409

Cute (a.) Clever; sharp; shrewd; ingenious; cunning.

From CrankyCats's shop..."Thanks for visiting my little shop of mostly kitties. This is how it works: I paint stuff and have some of the paintings scanned so I can make prints. I sell originals on another e-site and at art shows in the Northeastern US. What a life!!"

The website is: CrankyCats.com

I bet you can tell I am a cat lover by my avatar. Those wonderful furballs just warm my heart. When I came across CrankyCats shop, I just melted. Her paintings/prints of these cats are just adorable!

I hope that this print - 2CRANKY CATS IN SNOW STORM - finds a good home for the holidays. But shop around. If you know a cat lover....any of her prints would be the perfect gift!

Go look...go buy :D

From Lauren's shop..."All of my lampwork beads are created, one by one, by me! I love love love making beads. As you can see, turtles and cats are my favorites at the moment. I add new items to my shop every other day or so, so please check back often. My kids' stretchy necklaces are very popular among the young girls and tween set -- if there is a style you would like me to create, please let me know."

These unique, handmade beads are fabulous and Lauren aka MayBeads is a wonderful seller! She is very sweet and will work with you on any bead you want. If you want two...she will make your bead a "friend". I personally have purchased her items, so I know of what I speak...uh....type. I purchased the Spider on a Cupcake Earrings that you see at the bottom of today's post. I made them into earrings and they are just the talk of my office! I plan on purchasing two Cyclops the One-eyed Alien Turtles that you see at the topto make earrings out of those.

You can find wonderful items that will can be made into some REALLY cool holiday presents!

DAY 1 -NotMoira - Handmade hilarity

http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5766973

I have a really love humor that just knocks you on your butt! You will see that in some of the items that I make, but NotMoira has it down as far as cards go! If I need a laugh...I start by looking in her shop.

I am including one of her Christmas cards, but she has cards for all occassions....go look...go buy :D

Time Flies

Time flies...

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot. --Michael Althsuler

It is amazing how fast time goes. Sometimes I need these earring to tell me exactly where I am! Does that ever happen to you?

The holidays are coming soon. It seems like we just finished them. It is time to take control and be the pilot! Instead of fighting the holiday rush, start shopping now... if you haven't already.

I actually shop all year long! There have been so many times when I have said, "I wish I would have bought _________." Why didn't I do that? Now I can't find it or anything I want to get for __________. How frustrating is that!

There are so many great artists on Etsy, that I am sure you could find something for everyone on your shopping list this year. This week, I will be featuring some of my favorite Etsians to help you get going with your holiday shopping.

Check back every day :D

GO BE A PILOT!
