Erin M. Riley

Erin is someone I discovered while searching through Etsy.  She is working on an MFA in fibers at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, PA.  Her shop contains beautifully woven scarves and this dress which I adore.

I was then led to her site which contains the most beautiful and rather heartbreaking woven tapestries, frequently dealing with car accidents, trauma and death.  I’m so glad to have stumbled across her work.

Etsy pick: Brandi Strickland

I added Brandi to my Etsy favourites sometime last month, then completely forgot that I wanted to revisit her shop and do a little post about her (this happens to me fairly often). Oops.  So here it is… I love her work.

Etsy pick: Linea by Jess Beebe

I really do think that this is the best Etsy shop for clothing that I’ve seen so far.

Etsy pick: Moustache Man

Would it be so wrong to carry my resume in this to an interview?  Notes to a business meeting perhaps?

Etsy vintage pick: Chevron Afghan

If I had $60 to spend on a homemade throw, it’d surely be this one.  Such a great pattern.

Etsy pick: Wooly Baby

With so many of my friends having babies recently (or in the near future), I’m always on the lookout for baby presents.  The Wooly Baby shop makes the cutest baby and children’s slippers of all.  They use sweaters and re-purpose them into the most adorable little footwear.  A little out of my price range, but I do always love to see what they’ve made from time to time!
