Cool Finds on Etsy

Since I have nothing better to blog about and I'm sure you're all tired of hearing me whine, I thought I'd do a Cool Etsy Finds for pampering yourself!


Of course nothing is better than a nice soak in the tub...

Better yet, a bubble bath!

Bubble Rubble by Jo at ProductBody would do the trick




Bubbles not your thing?
How about some Bath Bombs?

(oops, how did those get in there!)

And since you're in a bath, a fabulous moisturizing scrub would be nice.

I've been drooling over the thought of Amber's Creamsicle Sugar Scrub.



I might want to eat it though!



And while soaking, a nice eye pillow like this Lavender and Peppermint one from BlueTurtleCollection might help to de-stress




And after a nice bath, how about a nice pedicure?



This set from Heather at TwinBirchBathandBody is awesome! Not only do I use it for my tootsies, but I use the scrub around my neck and face to help with congestion from allergies or colds.



Also to help the face? This Complete Facial Kit from SkinJourney would cover all the bases for any skin type





And what girl doesn't feel pretty in a little lingerie? Like this gorgeous Kimono Silk Bustier from SewSister.



(although I'm pretty sure it could also get you in the same perdiciment that I'm in at the moment)

How Lucky am I?

First off, a VERY late thank you and shout outs to Andrea and Teresa!


I received my pay-it-forward/sideways gifts from them loooong ago and have never posted about it!


From Andrea, I received this uber cute hat for the babe made from Merino wool. It is soooooo soft! Unfortunately his melon head will probably never get to wear it, so the girls have hijacked it to use for their babies. Apparently they need to stay warm in the 80+ degree weather we've been having.




And from Teresa this uber cute little chalkboard and bead!



This chalkboard will soon be reading a big, fat "KEEP OUT" on it so I can soak in the tub the ease all these pregnancy 'joys'. Now if only the girls could READ it! Lol

And that bead is wanting to become an accent on a new purse. Hehe.



And also a big, BIG thank you to Trisha! I received a package in the mail from her yesterday.

She sent me some sweet baby things for the Little guy...I have the best bloggy friends ever!



I teared up a bit too...but that may have been from the laughter when Ali told me "there's even little hats for the baby"...the pee-pee teepee's. Lol!
Thanks again Trisha! That was so very sweet of you!

Oh Belly...I Mean Baby!

Well the little guy has finally dropped. I wouldn't have noticed except for the pics from last week to this week



37 weeks


38 weeks



What do you think? Lol

Only 9more days until the C-Section date
(I've even added a fun little ticker to the sidebar)


But I'm still REALLY hoping he'll come sooner...like today would be good.

Still Here...

...unfortunately.
I will grace you all with a belly shot tomorrow of my misery, but for now I'm going to try to take a nap.
Ugg. I hate this part

A Day Late and A Dollar Short...


...Ok, well a FEW days late and a few dollars in YOUR pocket!



This Month's Special

FREE SHIPPING

That's right, FREE SHIPPING on all order of just $10 or more in my Etsy Shop and Website.



The count down is on for my Etsy Shop to close for all orders BUT CP soaps.




But if you don't mind waiting, you can order all the goodies you'll need from my website and still get free shipping!


There are just 16 days until my C-Section date (although I'm crossing my fingers it's sooner!) and it will be a minimum of two weeks until things are up and running at snail pace again.

Cool Finds on Etsy

It's been awhile since I've done a 'Cool Finds' and since my baby girl's birthday is fast approaching, I thought I would share what I've been checkin' out!












I'm a sucker for cute hats (even though she rarely keeps them on!).

I LOVE the colors from SweetSavannah's Quinn Hat






If I'm feeling up to it, I might attempt to make her one of these awesome Indoor Teepee's from MoozleHome


BitOfWhimsyPrims always has adorable toys. These two are my favorites:







And this is tooooo cool!


From BeaverBoatworks,

A baby BOAT cradle

along with the wagon wheel kit...Ari would be having a blast!

I'm Supposed to be Making Soap!

Did I mention these were really quick to make?


This is a test version of a bag I'm making for my Mom. I wanted to see how the prints went together.




I think they go well, what do you think?




Since I have no use for little purses, this guy is already listed on Etsy, here.



I posted it as an 'Oops' since the thread lines where I attached the straps is a little wonky on the interior. Nothing major and only cosmetically ugly on the inside.



So head on over and snatch this up for a great price!

New Purse


I'm really lovin' this bag!


I made this lovely last night in an XL size...



15" wide, 10" tall with a 24" total strap length.



PERFECT size in my opinion!


I love the Avocado Green color paired with Michael Miller's Pod Vine fabric.


There are two interior pockets and a magnetic snap closure



It is available on my Etsy page HERE for $34

Newest Purse Expedition

I've been toying around with different purse/bag designs lately. Since not everyone like a hardy bag like I do, so I made up this cute little number.




It's about 12" wide and 8" tall.



The strap is too short, so that will defiantly become longer if I decide to make and sell more of these.




So what do you think?



What's your purse style?
