ETSY SPOTLIGHT: SHAYAARON

How do you like your macaroons, pain au chocolats, cupcakes, Gouda cheese, avocados, salmon steaks, peanut butter & jam sandwiches and tacos?

WHY, DANGLING FROM MY EARLOBES OR AROUND MY NECK OF COURSE!



The level of detail = mind blown!

Shay Aaron makes these BLOODY BRILLIANT wee treats out of polymer clay and resin and I'm sure you'll agree that they ACTUALLY DO look good enough to eat... Especially that hot fudge brownie with ice cream...

Awesome work Shay :)

The pizza-slice earrings are probably my favourites - what's yours?

PS in case you can't tell, I AM STARVING right now!

ETSY SPOTLIGHT: CELAPIU

I wouldn't say that I ordinarily harbour a secret BURNING PASSION for all things cute or novelty, but in the case of Polish label Celapiu, I've made a big exception...

Seriously, how awesome are Celapiu's adorable winter warmers? I especially love their snoods, hats and immense 'Foks' stoles. Have a gander:

Celapiu was founded in 2005 by designer Celina Dębowska: " I like to think of my products as "surrealistic", describing design philosophy rather than defining a particular style. I play with styles, shuffle between cartoon kitsch and urban deconstruction".

Santa, gies one of those Foks stoles in my stocking, please?

ETSY SPOTLIGHT: D4NE2D33P

AKA Yard666sale, this shop is possibly my most favourite on Etsy at the moment. I've already bought two things from them (vintage Rancid tshirt and religious iconography long-sleeved top, OBV) and am itching to get my paws on more tacky, trippy, witchy 90s gear.

Just check these awesome photos. I wanna be a D4NE2D33P grrrl SO bad.

So aye, this shop is amazing and these pictures are the coolest things I've seen in a loooong time.

GAHD, as Bee and Lisa have both pointed out, there's at least several hundred things on in Glasgow tonight which I can't go to as I'm back working heinous full-time shifts at my old joabby. BOO. So instead, when I get in ama make like Tavi, dress up like a goth and lip synch to Taylor Swift... PLAN.

Oh, Tavi. YOU belong with MEEEEE! Amazeballs.

Sorry if this post was pathetically lacking in any real insight much beyond the likes of GEE GUYS THIS SHIZ IS WAY COOL. Working full time is zapping all my energy at the mo. That and some inappropriate mid-week drinking *ahem*
