Etsy is often enough: one last set of goodies before the holidays.

I've sort of fallen down on the shopping list goodness this year, and for that, I apologize most profusely...although in my defense, I've sort of been busier than the Great Pumpkin in the second week of October, so I guess it was only natural that a few things would start slipping, here and there. Anyway, here are the links I received in answer to my general call for shiny things made by my readers which might appeal to people who don't know about them yet.

First up, naturally, is the scented goodness of Conjure Oils, the only place you can find the Toby Daye perfume line. That's not all they have, however, and if you're a fan of fine perfumes, you can probably find something here to delight you. Take a look at their selection (although I totally recommend the Toby stuff, because dude).

Next up, Unorthofox Trinketries is here to answer your jewelry needs. The current selection has a heavy focus on mermaids. I heartily approve. Meanwhile, Om Shanti Handicrafts is a great source for all-natural vegetarian bath and beauty supplies. Any company that offers an unscented body wash is a-okay by me.

Here's a handy roundup of different independent artists that might be of interest to you. I love it when other people do the bulk of the work for me, don't you?

THE FOKS OMG DEADLY CUTENESS. Seriously, if my cats wouldn't eat them, I'd fill my house with these things. Or, if you like your fabric animals to be more practical, Creature Comforts offers animal-shaped tea cozies. Oh, Etsy, is there anything you can't do?

Silver Owl Creations is just an amazing source of unique key-based jewelry; I own the key to Goldengreen, thanks to Vixy, and it came from this crafter. The non-key works are fabulous, too.

That's all for now. Happy shopping!

Thank you for the mention! :)

You asked for it.
I still appreciate it. :)
THE FOKS THE FOKS THE FOKS!!!!
OMG YES.

Those key pendants are gorgeous. Next time I'm in the market for more jewelry, I'll go there first. Could you post a pic of the key to Goldengreen, please? It sounded lovely in the book.

That is some insane wire work.
Wow! Not how I pictured it, but incredibly beautiful just the same.

I really can't. I still haven't dealt with my pictures from Australia.
That's okay, stormsdotter gave me a link to it. It's gorgeous.

Speaking of Australia, I finally saw the recording of the Hugo Awards yesterday. I loved your acceptance speech. :-) Congrats again!

Neat!
If you really like animal type things, might I suggest Birdies, Beasties, and Bugs over at dreamwidth? She hand paints little wooden animals and makes them into jewelry; mostly earrings, but pendants, pins, and hairclips too, on request.

And she's got the coolest cats. I'm totally in love with the cloud kitties.
Oh, those are awesome.
OMG that is gorgeous jewelry. I now wish I had the money to buy some key things...
Fortunately, there's always time. :)
Erm. Gosh. I'm not on ETSY, as I am trying to get my own website fully functional, but gosh, I do sell stuff too...
Next time I ask people to send me links of things they make, be sure to drop me a line. It doesn't happen often, but I'm not Etsy-specific.
Omg i want a foks! Those scarves are ADORABLE. Thank you so much for sharing that. B/c I can't afford a $100 scarf right now I'm going to try making one of my own ^-^ (we'll see how well that goes...)
Good luck!
thanks :)
Le Sigh. Etsy linkage? Not Even Playing Fair.

And yet, thank you for the linkage to the Shinies ;-)
I never claimed to be fair. You're welcome!
