EtsyFinds: Purses
Because I’m really rough on my purses, I actually do have to replace them once or twice a year. (I am really trying to stop this, as right now I’m still mourning a suede bag felled in a sambuca accident last year.) This year, I ended up getting a purse very similar in shape... »
Etsy Find: Weight Loss Insanity
This is an altered-art project I found at ReCognition Watching on Etsy. It’s a commentary piece on how women have been targeted by the diet industry since the 19th century – it’s a gorgeous and funny piece of conflict and beauty. Share on Facebook »

Fabulous Chic Chicks: Sarah of CreativeSundries

I apparently didn’t write down her friend’s name (in the bright pink.) Either way, girls, you... »
EtsyFind: Jane BonBon
I’ve seen Jane BonBon’s Etsy shop recommended over and over on a livejournal community I frequent, and, my curiosity piqued, I asked her to let us get to know here better. Thus, she graciously consented to this interview: What was your first ever sewing project? When I was a kid, my gramma and I would make stuffed... »
EtsySeller Plus Designer Profile: Spritz
You can visit spritz’s shop on Etsy. Tell me about your shop – what is the inspiration behind it? About a year ago I got frustrated that places with cute stuff didn’t carry my size, so I taught myself how to sew. Also, I enjoy shopping at Torrid, but sometimes it is just a little pricey... »
