Vintage Numbers

I just bought this vintage metal highway sign number three… I sometimes can’t help myself! I like the holes in the number, it’s like a big polka dots. I can’t wait to get it and put it up on my wall…

Etsy Handmade Moment Contest

Etsy Handmade Moment contest now has finalists! I was watching some of the videos when they were just getting submissions and my favorite of all time is hine‘s Mr. Squid’s Handmade Moment!! I knew her video would be the finalists, I mean, it is too good to not be one. I love all the amazing details she always puts into her work (I posted about her work here before) and it is cute and funny, makes me smile every time I watch it :) Click any images to watch the video.

It happened to be a dachshund obsession day today at Heart Fish… (okay, I am always obsessed with dachshund goodies and cuteness)

Please meet Petie, the stuffed dachshund by littlebigpants on Etsy. I love her loong nose!
