etsy pinings - warmed by shopping

Spring is so close I can almost taste it, but today it's still bone-chillingly cold in my lovely city (and the building manager is feeling stingy with the heat, since it looks kind of like spring outside). I'm procrastinating - browsing through Etsy looking for those hints of sweet, balmy warmer weather, and feeling the glow of virtual shopping.

Tomboy, meet ruffles. Pretty, pretty hat from piperandpaisley.


Ok, so this isn't strictly a spring thing, but prettytheory demonstrates a timeless sentiment, and I'm feeling the weight of her argument pretty strongly.

These earrings by stephaniesimek are so clever and graceful.

I love every last thing adventuresofjr makes, but as I'm sitting here shivering and rubbing my hands together, I'm most tempted by this cozy wrap.


When stringofblue closed her Etsy shop I was heartbroken, but I discovered this week that she's back as darvesh. This graceful chunk of turquoise is calling my name.

blissfulimages' shop name says it all. She takes joyous photos with an air of delicacy that's enchanting.

I love almapottery's tiny fairy houses. This one has an intriguing urban twist.


Cheery felted eggs by astashtoys. I feel an addiction coming on.

I yearn for delightworthyn's piecey fanciful hats.

Gorgeous bright brass bubble earrings by StudioRona.
