Weather or Not
We have nothing to complain about here. The weather this Summer has been nothing short of spectacular. June...gorgeous. July....hotter the hades and humid to match. August.....lovely summer days. September.....the trend continues. However, today there is a storm on its way. The wind is picking up, the skies have turned gray and that's where today's etsy finds lead me.

Serious Loot
I can't say enough about Mercantile Muse's giveaway sponsors. These independent shop owners and creatives are really 'all that' and more. This month's giveaway is enough to stop traffic. If it was advertised on a billboard it would be a given. Since it's not, I'm here to toot the horn. It's a must-enter. It's that good. $180+ in handmade and vintage. What's not to love? You could be the winner of all this:
Here's the winnings in black and white:
One pillow/cushion cover from DreamPillowZzz,
a bookpage print from Papyrusaurus,
tangerine tango wood ring from Starlight Woods,
cookbook from StorytellersVintage,
a pyramid paperweight from Lia Artisan Concrete Designs,
a lovely wristlet clutch from Hazel Brown Designs,
a bookpage flower ring and hair clips from Hayley's Paper Love,
a pair of custom ladybug pillows from fAveritte Creations,
a vintage handpainted bone china Nippon plate from our shop-
your choice of print from Bates Mercantile Co.,
and a photographic art print from Bleu Oiseau Photography
So if you still haven't thrown your name in the hat, what the heck are you waiting for? Go forth and enter.
Hope you're having a smashing day. Mine is full of playing catch up after. The cost of enjoying some downtime with our visitors. Well worth the cost.
Ciao for now,
