recent etsy finds

Last Sunday I did some searching on Etsy for things I'll need in the future (and some I just want). Here are some stuff I found that I liked!

This print is from Flor Larios's shop. So beautiful! I really like all her prints but I would love to buy an original piece!

I really need some new pillows for our couch, has anyone ever noticed how expensive pillows are?? I came across Marie's Cosy Cushions and I loved all the fabric prints that she has! And affordable, especially if you already have pillow inserts!

More wall decals, but these aren't for kids. Why do I love these? They remind me of wall paper but are so less permanent. I am a lover of wall paper in certain rooms (that's what happens when you work for a homebuilder on their model homes). I honestly hope to get use out of these soon! You can find a bunch of different styles at Byrdie Graphics.

I love all the custom heart embroidery at Minature Rhino. I would love one hanging above our bed, so simple yet loving.

I must have been on a mermaid kick, but I came across this doll at Tiny Green Apples. Piper is really into dolls and I loved how sweet this sleeping mermaid is. 

I'm thinking I need to make my Etsy searches a weekly thing for this blog!

i'm droooling

I'm drooling over these fabric wall stickers that Design Mom posted about today! I have been in love with Blik's wall decals for a long time, but our walls are textured and I was worried it wouldn't work. These wall stickers are fabric and are especially adorable for a girls room. If baby #3 is a girl I will be purchasing the doll ones FOR SURE! You can find them at Mae's etsy shop, I have a feeling Mae is going to be very busy now that Design mom featured her beautiful work!

earth day

My Earth Day post is very simple. As soon as I had Brody, I felt this immediate need to recycle more. I understood that I would need to teach him good practices to be friendly to the earth, and recycling is the easiest and most basic way to do it. We should all be recycling. As I get older I am trying to practice more ways to be environmentally friendly and I have a long way to go. This blue trash can was $5.50 at Home Depot. It's a bit of an eye sore in our kitchen, but it ensures that everything that can be recycled gets recycled. We are always throwing stuff in it. If you don't have your own eye sore, go get one!
