The Most Sexiest Time of the Year

Well maybe not - but it's the magical time of year when you look around and are confused - are you stuck in a bizzaro hipster world? or in an adult movie?

Nope it's just... Movember! Clifford is not taking part thi syear (due to frustration with his Lupin 'stache). Is you significant other taking part? Are you counting the days till December for other reasons than Christmas decorating??

Here's a little Mustache love from Etsy

Little Toaster That Could

Remember my $2 toaster?? Well I got it home and found out it didn't work - a risk I knew I was taking, but it was $2, so you know, worth trying. I was pretty sad because it was perfect for my kitchen, and being stubborn I refused to believe that it was beyond repair, so I hit the internet.

I found out it was from the 1960's and supposedly one of the best machines Sunbeam ever made "the Cadillac of toasters". Now I loved it more and was prepared to spend some money on getting it fixed, even though I knew Clifford wouldn't be on board with spending money on fixing something that coast 2 bucks. While browsing I stumbled across an ETSY seller who was selling the same one, and thought it wouldn't hurt to email her, maybe she had to fix that one.

Old Green Canoe (a fellow Canadian!) not only answered me right away, but also spent the morning going back and forth with me with what the problem was and suggestions for fixing it - and her suggestion worked - and I wanted to take this time to thank her for helping me out and encourage you to check out the great vintage in her ETSY shop!

Wow this was a lot of writing for a toaster lol :) Have you met any great ETSY sellers who have gone above and beyond?

Fathers Day > Etsy Love

Happy Wednesday :) Today I am excited to be a guest blogger over at Kira's blog. She is expecting her first baby and has been doing a weekly Mama Knows Best Feature on her blog (the post should be up at some point today).

And speaking of babies, Father's Day is this weekend. What are your plans? Here is a little Etsy Inspiration if you are still searching for a gift!

Royal Wedding Mania

So people are pretty crazed about the Royal wedding (I will admit I am excited to see the dress). As with every media frenzy you can expect some pretty ridiculous memorabilia to pop up (yes I am talking about you William & Kate fridge!).

I hopped on Etsy to see what cute & kitschy things people were making in celebration of the royal nuptials, here are my finds :)

And yes Michelle - this post is for you ...
