My Bonnie & Clyde

My Bonnie & Clyde offers artists of all mediums the opportunity to gain exposure by providing a shop in which to sell their various wares. You'll find all kinds of cool items from purses to indie music. There's also beautiful stockings made out of vintage materials by Enderby. My Bonnie & Clyde also offers cards by some of my favorite designers such as Paper Relics and paper piles by One Good Bumblebee. I love the Oh Deer! notepad by La Karta that is covered in the cutest vintage material. There are so many wonderful products here...won't you take a moment to look around?

Trixie Delicious

Trixie Delicious sells "vandalized vintage stuff" that make a bold statement. Take a look at this erotic bowl set & you will see exactly what I mean! There are plenty of humorous pieces to choose from including the kiss and tell set. I also like brainwashed and nonsense. My mother would probably say that the brat plate is fitting for me. You can also customize a plate with a word of your choice.

Little Dear

I recently learned about Little Dear through Crafty Synergy and just had to share. Aside from the adorable deer in the logo, Little Dear has lots of wonderful items to choose from. There's terrific artwork such as this painting, and these fun little pieces called Noms. According to the description, Noms are tiny, one of a kind gnome figurines, sculpted from clay and hand painted. And how cute are the Noms buttons? Also, don't miss the great plushies like this fat kitty.

Milkypop

Milkypop is full of cool items created by Megan in Minnesota. Her custom button jewelry is so unique & funky. You can choose from the extensive catalog of 1" buttons & have them turned into dangle earrings, pendants, and much more. Megan also creates beautiful mirrors covered in various materials such as kimono fabric and pretty papers. And aren't these tops lovely? Please note that orders need to be placed by December 12 in order to receive them by Christmas.

Wonderland Q

Alison Gordon and Suzy Coady, the creative forces behind Wonderland Q, say life is too short to be badly accessorized. I couldn't agree more! I love the adorable embroidered chick purse, as well as the little piggie bag. And look at the cool graphic screen printed on the first aid pouch. You'll find several whimsical animals that you can have silkscreened on scarves, too. There's lots of greeting cards complete with iron-on patches and this adorable chick onsie. Also, every purchase until December 20th will receive a free 2006 silkscreened acrylic felt ornament. Fabulous!

Broadway Paper

Have you ever heard the term papivore? I had not until reading the bio of Tracie Stier-Johnson, owner of Broadway Paper. She says, "at broadwaypaper.com, papivores across the country can access our delectable line of goodies morning, noon or night!" I love this term because I absolutely love pretty patterned & decorative papers. Perfect for the holiday season is the beautiful aqua and red cardinal wrapping paper & coordinating loops note cards. The mittens soy candle is too cute and I love the letterpressed peace ornament cards. There's lots of products for various occassions at Broadway Paper, including bachelorette parties, birthdays, weddings, and much more. Also, check out the extensive collection of holiday products.

Bookworm Suki

Bookworm Suki makes beautiful handmade books, journals & notepads that make perfect holiday gifts. The mini notebooks are great for jotting down lists. And look at all the fabulous patterns you can choose from! I especially love the green deer. There are also magnetic notepads which are very handy. My favorite item is the lovely ribbon book complete with hard cover & 100 hand-cut blank pages. And don't miss the mini notebook gift sets that are currently on sale for the holiday season.

Holiday Funky Finds II

The handmade candles by Zouzou Candles will make a lovely gift for so many people on your list this holiday season. And what better way to top off a wrapped gift than with handpainted gift tags by Yarn Girl Stuff? The O Holi Tree ornaments at Gifts Define are a perfect adornment for your Christmas tree & each ornament is unique. There's also adorable bon bon ornament kits from Inspire Company, one of my favorite bloggers, and terrific penguin ornaments from Sewing Stars. And if these little kitties by Nnahong aren't the cutest little things, I don't know what is! For the gift that keeps on giving all year long we have the fabulous earring of the month club from Tilting Swiftly. Aren't the earrings gorgeous? All of these unique items are sure to make this holiday season very special for you & your loved ones.

Art Auction

Fabulous animal rescuer Bernie Berlin is currently holding an art auction to raise funds for her rescue operation. The auction is running December 1 thru the 10th on eBay. Her eBay ID is aplace2bark if you can't access the auction throught the link. I think Bernie ran into some snags when uploading pieces to the auction, so look for more items to appear any time. All of the art pieces were lovingly donated by various artists, crafters and animal lovers. Bernie does such wonderful selfless work. This auction is an important fundraiser for her work. Please take a look & bid if you are able. You can also donate directly to Bernie through her blog. The funds go toward vet bills, operating costs, vaccinations, and much more.

Geek + Nerd

Luckily I am a friend on Geek + Nerd's MySpace so I was amongst the first to learn of their fabulous ornaments in their Etsy shop. Here you will find the cutest Christmas trees, adorable mushrooms, and lovely angels. There's also plenty of other wonderful non-holiday related goods to choose from as well. The beautiful hand knit starbust hat is a winner. And the Bonnie bands are just too cute!

Mary Richmond Designs

Mary Richmond is a fabulous artist who is using her talents to raise money for the MSPCA, an organization dedicating to protecting & saving neglected animals. Mary handpaints the ornaments with your choice of breed of dog, cat, or bird. All ornaments are fully glazed and strung with a ribbon for hanging. Most importantly, 100% of the proceeds will go to the MSPCA to help homeless animals. Most ornaments are $15 although having a pet painted from your photo can be done for a $25 donation. Also, December 15 is the last day orders will be accepted. You can contact Mary directly through her blog to order the ornaments. You can see more of Mary's work on her website, too. And don't miss her Etsy shop which is full of beautiful watercolors, handpainted tiles, jewelry and much more.
