A beautiful collection of....collections!

The past several days have seen quite a number of wonderful treasuries - all filled with beautiful art, and handmade and vintage pieces.

 

I've been privileged to be a part of some of these collections:







and I've even put together a fun collection of my own!


I hope you'll take a moment or two to browse through these great finds, and perhaps pay a visit to some of the wonderful Etsy shops represented!

The season of love...mittens...and snuggling!

Even here in always hot and humid southeast Texas, it has been cold and rainy lately. Afternoons indoors listening to chilly wind and rain prompt thoughts of warm blankets, hot cocoa, and a good book - preferably shared with that special someone.

Here are some great snuggle-weather finds from some wonderful shops:

I love these half-finger gloves from Deekas! I love the idea of having that extra warmth- and the color combo is so pretty!

 

Oh and I think these hand warmers from WormeWoole are the neatest thing! What a sweet, unique gift for Valentines Day!

More finds are in this treasury I recently put together:

A look back at some fun treasuries :)

This past week I have gotten the chance to not only curate but be a part of wonderful treasuries on Etsy



Smack in the middle of the week, of course, was Halloween. I took some time out from sneaking fun-sized candy bars to create this fun Halloween-themed treasury:




It was so hard to pick a favorite from the bunch! Let's just say that ALL of the featured shops have many wonderful unique things that made me smile and go "oooo!"



I was also thrilled to be a part of a beautiful purple and green themed treasury, curated by Pam of MainelyDwyers



Here is the little cityscape ACEO that was among all the beautiful jewel-toned items:
