Etsian of the Week: TheWindyHill

It's been a while since I've done an Etsy post, so why not start up again by featuring my mom's new shoppe? Before starting out on Etsy, she sold quality, handmade clothing for Himstedts, as did I. You can still buy a few of her ensembles here {KinderCottageKeepsakes}, as well as see past creations.

Her new venture on Etsy is made up mostly of handmade, anime-style, felt dolls. We have decided they are so weird that they're pretty cute! She also sells upcycled rings made with vintage earrings and buttons, plus fabric covered button earrings. So stop by and look around. She'll have new items up soon! :)

Here are some little lovelies just listed on my Etsy Shoppe.

#1 & #2 in my new "Aggie Anne" series of artwork. My nickname is Aggie (given to me by my youngest sister when she was really young) and I was sometimes called Alexan(drea) as a kid..........so there you go!

I drew each little girl onto unbleached muslin using colored pencils. Their clothes are made from fabric scraps, and the cookies are Re-Ment miniatures. I mounted the muslin blocks onto pieces of matching scrapbook paper, and they're ready to be framed! I think these turned out pretty cute, and hopefully I'll get some more of them made soon. :-) There are some other nifty additions to my Etsy shoppe as well, so stop over if you have the time!

Picture Frame Art

My first attempt at picture frame art using scrapbook paper, vintage look postcards, and Re-Ment miniatures. My mom and I sell these darling miniatures (originally from Japan) on our website. I've been trying to think of clever things to make with them, and here is the first! Made for my fellow blogging buddy, Sasha (TheGildedBee).

Made using: Re-Ment set #10 (Elegant Muffins and Scones)- from the Bread and Butter Collection
