Serenity... a Treasury

I'm sitting here in front of my computer, drinking my tea, going through all the things I must do in preparation of Christmas three short days away.  There seems to be more things on my "to do" list than I originally anticipated. 

So as my blood pressure begins to rise, and the stress of what should be the happiest time of the year starts to envelope me, I take a step back, and with a few clicks of my mouse, I'm brought back to a relaxed state.  Just looking at the serene and tranquil pictures of these lovely handmade items featured in SocksAndMittens treasury.

Featured in this amazing treasury alongside la Naváa's Hope Keepsake Box, is the simplistic and oh-so eco friendly travel mug by yevgenia of Brooklyn. 

Everything in her Etsy shop is hand painted, including the delicate Baby's Breath Flowers that adorn the mug included by SocksAndMittens.

  Also Incorporated into this peaceful collection is the Watercolour Art Illustrations 2011 Wall Calender by marissahandmade of Toronto. 

I'm in awe of the detailed whimsy that accompanies each month of the year!

Embellishing the top of my baby blue and cream colored Hope Keepsake Box is the word "hope" which was hand stenciled by me.  The box itself was hand-folded by me using 100% recycled papers.  Find it and more in my Etsy Shop.

May your holiday season be peaceful, yet merry.

'10 Holiday Gift Giving List :: #7

The seventh item listed in la Naváa's '10 Holiday Gift Giving List was inspired by the typical morning drag.  I was up till the wee hours of the morning, piecing together my new jewelry order.  Finally, by 1am I was ready to check out...  By the time I got to bed, I was overstimulated by all the gorgeous gems that would soon arrive.  I laid in bed fantasizing about all my soon to come creations.

Needless to say, I wasn't too chipper when I alarm began to squawk.  But knowing that once I got out of bed, I could energize myself with a good cup of Joe is the only thing that got me going.

I admit it; I’m a coffee addict. That's why I love SocksAndMittens. This Etsy shop, based out of Arizona, caters to coffee lovers with their line of hand-knit coffee cozies and sleeves. This brightly colored sleeve made with vegan friendly yarn is one of my favorites.

And for those of you lucky enough to brew your own, Tanya’s mother, who is the master knitter behind this shop, has made special button cozies, like this honey mustard colored cutie.

Check out the rest of SocksAndMittens fab collection of socks to headbands and everything in between!

Only three items remaining in the '10 Holiday Gift Giving List! Remember to submit your ideas!

This Turquoise colored choker necklace was made especially for kellieshops on Etsy.  It was modeled after my Flirty Blue Necklace currently available in my Etsy shop.

Large Mother of Pearl 12mm coins are separated by matching glass seed beads. Sterling Silver spring clasp and components finish off this fun and flirty piece.

Enjoy Kellie!

Much ♥ from la Naváa!

Polka Dot? Polka Dot!

I was so excited to recently be commissioned to create custom Polka Dot gift boxes- large ones! The task was to construct a matching Blue on Blue polka dot gift box, in a larger size than my current Polka Dot gift boxes.  One box turned into two, which turned into three and then four! Obviously I was in 7th heaven.

The result included a super sized Dark Blue on Light Polka Dot gift box, with matching tiny box. And… another super sized Purple on Pink Polka Polka Dot gift box, with little guy!

I think they turned out to be Super Cute! Much ♥ to you PineappleLover123!

Callin' all you bakers!

A few of my favorite things

After a long day (at my day job), I was in need of some comfort.  I turned to my fellow Etsians to help me with that. 

What I needed was a calm, serene environment filled with my favorite things.  A few things from my Etsy favorites file that is.

The result was tranquil, peaceful and subdued... and lovely. 

Thank you Etsians, for your beautiful works of art.

Much ♥

So this morning, I found myself lying in bed... wide awake... at 4am.  I couldn't sleep, so I began running through my to-do list.  One of my to-do items included a new Etsy Treasury.

Checkmark!  Cheers my fellow Etsians.
