'tis the season...
Andrea
...for giving!
Still looking for the perfect gift for a family member or friend? In addition to some of my favorite things in the Bella Eats Store powered by Amazon, I wanted to share some of my favorite hand-crafted and vintage finds on Etsy. If you haven't shopped on Etsy before, beware. This little site is incredibly addicting. Buying handmade and vintage pieces from individual artists is very, very satisfying.
How completely adorable are these aprons?!? Just about as cute as Joy herself. Who wouldn't want a little bit of Joy, and her mom, in their kitchen?
$27.00. Joy the Baker on Etsy
I've coveted tea towels from Skinny laMinx for what seems like years. Her original drawings, screen printed in bold colors on hopsack, would brighten any kitchen.
$12.00. Skinny laMinx on Etsy
I love these abstract illustrations screen printed on 100% linen. I think the "collander" design is my favorite.
prices range from $18.00 - $68.00. Elizabeth Bentz on Etsy
I have an unhealthy obsession with all things felt, and these coasters are no exception. They come in a slew of fun colors, in round and square shapes.
set of 4 for $14.00. FilzFelt on Etsy
I love these simple cake and cupcake stands with a touch of whimsey, and the lotus bowls...*swoon*.
lotus bowls $325.00, cupcake stand $38.00. Whitney Smith Pottery on Etsy
When I think of napkin rings, I think of fancy, fussy parties. This more casual, personal option is much more suited to our home.
set of 2 $24.00, set of 8 $96.00. Rae Dunn on Etsy
I like to think that even though we live in a digital age of electronic recipe files and iPhone apps for cooks, that I would still sit down and write out my favorite recipes on cards for a friend. I think that these adorable letterpress designs would help to motivate me.
set of 10 for $15.00. Dingbat Press on Etsy
Hannah's photography is stunning. If you aren't following her blog, you should be.
$18.00 for 8x12 print. Honey and Jam on Etsy
