Funky Blue

Find these delightfully warm and fashionable items in Lizstaley's etsy shop. I just love the color and the unique fish button on the scarf and the furry cuffs on the fingerless gloves. what a great way to stay warm this winter. Please take a look at Liz's shop for buttons, unique jewelry made with computer keyboard pieces and more.




Realm Of Nerdiness

My featured artist for today has a great shop with interesting items like the ones featured above. Please read what she has to say about herself.

"I grew up in Baltimore, but am now living in Greenville, NC. My mom got me into arts and crafts when I was really little (I wanted to help her paint ceramics when I was a baby, so she'd give me a paintbrush, a cup of water, and a rubber ducky. Took me awhile to figure out that it's supposed to change colors when you paint it though!). Ever since then I've loved to draw and create things.Now, I love doing art, crocheting, and am getting into making ACEO cards and sewing. I've been crocheting and drawing for years. I also love to make button pins. I tend to go on what I like to call "craft binges", where I'll make a whole bunch of a certain thing, so if you see long stretches of buttons or crocheted items in my listings, you'll know I've been on one!My hobbies when I'm not creating things are watching anime, playing tabletop role-playing games (Dungeons and Dragons; Big Eyes, Small Mouth; D20 Modern, West End Games' D6 System, etc), building web-pages, and playing on GaiaOnline[dot]com. I also have a gallery on DeviantArt and Flickr, both of which you can find with the user name lizstaley as well.I find that I really enjoy blogging abou tmy crafts as well! You can visit my blog at http://livewirechick.blogspot.com/
In addition, I also write and illustrate a story that I publish to the web, and have been working on since I was a senior in high school. It's gone through many, many versions and updates, and I'm eventually thinking about having it published. You can check that out at

Flower Power!







Your child will stay warm and comfortable with the adorable items offered in Toni's shop, Kuddle Bugz Threadz. I love the bright colors of the items featured above. Please visit Toni's shop and read more about her on her blog.

Kuddlebugz

Today I am featuring Toni of Kuddle Bugz Threadz who lives in the North Pole. You read that correctly! I figure she must know a lot about keeping warm and I am sure her darling hats, gloves, booties, mittens, etc. must be nice and toasty. These items would be a perfect gift for a baby or toddler. Please read about Toni's shop below.

"Thanks for taking an interest in my shop! My name is Toni and I am the mother of two wonderful little twin girls!Yes, I live way up North where it gets VERY cold in the winter...-50 degrees F! (And yes, there really is a place called North Pole! It is about 10 miles from Fairbanks, AK.) The winters do get long, but it is absolutely breath taking up here in Alaska! The summer days are amazing with such long days! I am most famous for being "Mommy" to my 15 month of twin daughters! I never knew I had so much love in me until I became a mother! They are my so precious! And they are the inspiration for KuddleBugz Threadz! With the need in Fairbanks for warm baby items, I felt a tug at my heart to use my talents to help other mom's! Tori and Trista inspired the name "KuddleBugz", they are truly my little kuddlebugz!Keep your little ones warm and cozy this winter with a beautiful Infant Car Seat Cover! For those tiny toes pick up a pair of warm and cozy booties! Don't have a NEW Baby? How about new hat or pair of mittens for that Toddler in your life?More items coming soon! Add me to your Heart Me list to see new inventory! Looking for something special? I can do custom orders! Please convo. me to let me know what colors you are looking for!Not sure what to get?? I offer Gift Certificates!

Buttons, Buttons, Buttons!






Are you a Nintendo,animae,manga or Japanese art items fan? Then you have come to the right place. Lauren's shop, Lost Mitten is the place to find buttons, crocheted items, Nintendo and other interesting objects of art. The buttons I chose to feature are a small sampling of Lauren's work. I was a Nancy Drew fan so I just love this button set. All button sets have pin backs and are mailed on the cardboard mitten you see above. Put these buttons anywhere; on a coat, hat, pocketbook, or any old place that makes you happy. Check out this interesting shop and don't forget to read Lauren's blog.
