cloudy, with a chance of drama

I think this may be my favorite treasury I've ever curated, and I'm absolutely thrilled to say that it graced the front page of Etsy on Wednesday night. Congratulations to these gifted sellers, and thanks for lending your work to my small tale in pictures. Featured shops are listed below the picture.

sorry, Emily.

Feathers are a noticeable trend lately, and one that's produced some fantastic work on Etsy. So much fantastic work that I just had to make a treasury. I give you "Hair is the thing with feathers." Featured shops are listed in order of appearance, left to right, top to bottom, beneath the picture. Check them out, but be forewarned - once you start wearing feathers in your hair, it's really hard to stop.

treasury mania

For you Etsy-lifers out there, a small cautionary tale: when entering Treasury West, be prepared. Not once, not twice, but thrice prepared. I made a treasury I had all planned out:

And when I went back to check on it, I got another one. It was okay, I had something kind of in mind:

But when I went back to check on that one, the all-benevolent, ever-giving Treasury West gave me a third shot at stardom, and I completely panicked. I actually quite like the end result, though, so here it is:

But I'm not going back in there again. Not without a helmet and a battle plan. Click to enlarge the screenshots, and you can see the shop name of each item.

schoodies, silk quilts and imaginary pets

It's been one of those seasons where I just can't seem to find a minute to catch my breath. Obviously. I haven't posted anything in over a month. To try to fool myself into relaxing and escaping a little bit, I made a treasury on Etsy full of things that my cabin in the woods (if I had one) would have. The shops featured are listed below. Keith Phillips' lovely birdhouse has sold out, but I'm leaving it in anyway because it's so perfect, and because his shop is full of plenty of other great cabin-in-the-woodsy stuff.
