12-29-2011 Etsy Favorites

It has been a very different Christmas around our house this year.

And very little business as usual has occurred.

Some of you may know that my daughter had a horseback riding accident a while back that resulted in an unexpected surgery a little over a week ago.

(she is doing very well though)

Unfortunately my blog has not exactly been at the top of my 

To-Do List.

However, I feel it is important to keep on track with my 

Thursday Etsy Favorites Post.

Readers, I do apologize!

I will get back into the swing of things.

Keep the faith.

Let's get to it!

This Thursday I am keeping with the recycled, up-cycled and re-purposed theme...

along with the festivity of  

Christmas.

T-Shirt and Ribbon Rug

By Ce Knits

I love it!

I seem to be attracted to items that sell quickly, this item has sold since I first put it into my "favorites".  Which is good for Celesta but not so go for me or my readers.

Luckily for us...

she has many other wonderful knitted items.

My personal favorites are her 

Coffee Cozies

Celesta is a blogger as well...

I think this is a great piece.

By Hippie House Designs

Unfortunately none of them will fit me...
but thanks to Hippy House Designs, 
I finally ...
know what I can do with those 
Pre-pregnancy jeans I just couldn't throw away.
After 11 years you would think I would have let them go, huh?
