Ahh, Sock Horror!



OK, I love these! They are creepy, absolutely adorable sock creatures called Doldrums, created by Sock Horror. I found Tiufo, the star Doldrum, for $36 and Dilly, the pink and black Doldrum, for $40 USD at their Etsy Shop. Each creature is sent with its own body bag and toe tag; very creative.

Vintage Poppy Creations



Vintage Poppy Creations brought back a lot of memories for me: making little things out of felt. Except VPC has a lot more skill than I do at sewing. Everything she makes is made out of felt and absolutely adorable! There are really clever Ipod socks at her Etsy Shop for around $6 USD. I also found this elegant felt, lace, and buttons bracelet for $15. Vintage Poppy Creations is definitely going to be on my Christmas list this year; she does custom orders!

Keys and Memories



Now how about this: vintage typewriter key jewelry from Keys and Memories! This is certainly something new to me! I love the beautiful Alice in Wonderland images put into the typewriter keys to make a bracelet, which can be found at the K&M Etsy shop for $39.99. The Japanese Geisha's are also a unique find; $41.99 USD. Not only does Keys and Memories make bracelets, but also watches, earrings, and necklaces. Definitely something to check out.

Ugly Baby!



Don't let the name scare you away, Ugly Baby is a treat! They created these cool Shower Art peices that can be suction cupped to your shower, or any other location that will allow it. I really like the "Floss Bitch" shown above, $40 USD at their Etsy shop. Not only did I find shower art, but also these adorable brooches, for around $8! I'm thinking Christmas presents...Hmmm...
