Etsy Featured Artist - cuddlebaby

Visiting Shannon's etsy shop almost made me want to have another baby, just to be able to wrap him/her in one of her big, soft, colorful blankets. If you're frustrated with trying to swaddle your baby with those tiny, store-bought blankets, consider purchasing one from cuddlebaby instead. You can even buy matching onesies for most of the blankets, and there are a few matched sets to make it even easier for you. Shannon also has handmade dresses for the toddler set, as well as skirt and onesie sets for your infant. Pacifier clips and burpies round out the items she offers in her shop, but her selection of blankets is amazing. She has several styles, including a nursing blanket that has a weighted attachment on one corner to keep it from falling off while nursing baby. Very useful! You really have to go to her shop (link below) to see her large selection.

"Flowers and Bees Dress/Shirt Sizes 2T-4T" is absolutely adorable! This would make a great gift for the older sister at a baby shower.
"Sea Turtles and Flowers Reversible Blanket" is a bright, cozy reversible blanket with cute sea turtle print on one side and flowers on the other. There is also a matching onesie available.
"Going Bananas Blanket and Onesie Gift Set" has a bright and cheery print with monkeys. Sure to make you smile on even those most hectic days.

Becki is a stay-at-home mom from Salt Lake City. Yay SAHMs! She enjoys doing all sorts of crafts, and has recently opened a second etsy shop to accomodated her planned additions to her crafting repertoire. etyqua, Becki's first shop, features jewelry for the most part. Her other shop, delightful deceits, has original art and prints from them, as well as cards and her decorated wood jewelry boxes.

"Truth and Light" is lovingly crafted with turquoise-colored faceted glass beads, frosted glass bells, copper accents and copper wire. Very pretty!
"Patch pony tail Series Lilac - 1" is a jazzed-up ponytail holder. Will dress up your hair nicely.
"Vintage Hearts Mini Box" is from Becki's newest shop, delightfuldeceits. Hand painted and appliqued, it would make a nice gift box for a special piece of jewelry (perhaps from entyqua?).

Etsy Featured Artist - Yaslani

Step into Yasmin's etsy shop and the first thing that hits you is... COLOR!! It is lively, vibrant, HAPPY with color! This Jersey girl, who moved to LA, and back again, picking up an education in Fine Art -Painting at Otis Art Institute, has got to be a very good-natured person, judging from her art. She says of her art, "I consider my art to be an aesthetic conversation. A lovely chat between friends sometimes relaying a story or an inside joke. The only judgement I make with my art is “am I feeling this or not.” The “not” pile gets recycled for another day." A very lighthearted view, which is reflected in the lighthearted scenes she sometimes depicts in her artwork.
Take "Nightwalk - 4x4 Canvas" for instance. Doesn't it just make you smile? This is one of several in a series depicting different animals - or sometimes the same animal - in various scenes and colors.
"Butterflies - 3 Pendants for the price of 2" is one of many sets of bamboo pendants that Yasmin makes. The subject matter varies greatly, so you're sure to find something you like.

"Bette Davis Eyes" is a small canvas with a big star! This painting, done in acrylics, is on 3/4" thick gallery wrapped canvas. A beautifully done piece of art in miniature. This can also be ordered in other colors, and she can also do a portrait using your own photo. Click on the picture to go to the listing, where you'll find more information about these options.
