I really like online shopping....

So since it's that time of year again, and everyone is trying to think of Christmas gifts for their loved ones, I thought I'd give a quick plug for mom-preneurs and Etsy sellers. You can find some terrific, creative, one-of-a-kind gifts by shopping through them. For example, I was browsing on Etsy...and here are some of my cool finds.

One of my favorite indulgences is bath products. Bath fizzies, scented soap, and my personal favorite: the bubble bar. Seriously, soaking in the tub is SOOOO much better with big luxurious bubbles. A couple of my friends (you know who you are) introduced me to Lush over the summer....and I LOVED the bath fizzy and bubble bar I got from them (the soap I didn't love so much). BUT! I discovered this Etsy seller who specializes in such yummy things. I bought a pumpkin spice bubble bar and a honeysuckle bubble bar yesterday...I can't WAIT for them to come. Her products are more affordable than Lush, and her shipping prices are some of the most reasonable I saw for bath products. Not to mention, she has 100% positive feedback. And for those of you Twilight fans out there, she has an entire line of Twilight inspired products.....


I also have a thing for hats. I bought this adorable beanie (or rather, Landon bought it) for me for Mother's Day. The seller was great to communicate with, and I LOVE the product. I get so many compliments on it anytime I wear it...and now that winter is upon us, a hat like this is perfect. I think the below is my new favorite of her offerings.

Also found some very cute cloche hats...this one is my favorite.


And who doesn't love slippers? I think a pair of handmade cozy slippers are a perfect gift...here's my picks:

And of course, we all know I love jewelry. And there are treasures to be found in that category!!! Etsy has TONS of jewelry, and you can find something in every price range. I found one seller I particularly like. For all you Eugenians out there:


She also has a number of simple yet elegant sterling silver hoops I like:


So those are just some fun ideas for Christmas gifts...I like to show my support for other sellers like myself! (And no, my shop is not up for Christmas....though I might be clearancing out some jewelry....stay tuned, I'll let you know.)
