Etsy Obsession Begins

I read several blogs a day that feature different items off of Etsy. Until this morning I had never actually gone out to the site to check out all the handmade goods from the around the world. And let me just say I have now fallen in love three times over! There are so many extremely talented designers featured on this site and I just can't get enough. I've found sellers who create clothes that I could easily see being featured in a high end shopping mall, jewelery that is fit for a queen and home goods that would transform the ugliest room into a palace!

My favorite seller and designer of my most recent purchase is Eliz And Axel. This lovely desigener is based out of Arkansas (I think if I remember right) and she uses basic tees and tanks and adds a feminine twist with a variety of different flowers and ruffles. She does a limited run of each design and generally speaking you can custommize the color you want it in.

The minute I saw this tank this morning I had to order it. It's coming up on summer time (well hopefully soon) in Australia and I think this tank could become one of my staple items. I was going to order it in pink, but thought that it may be more versatile in black.

Love Etsy! This designer looks great. Like it in pink, but agree it would prob be more practical in black. Are you shipping it to your parents and having it shipped to you in Oz or will they ship to Oz?
