i love etsy.  it’s amazing to go on a website, type in a phrase to describe what i want, select the “handmade” option, and get literally hundreds of pages back full of gorgeous items to choose from (did i mention that they’d all be handmade?!).  i just received the most charming package (picture below) from a talented woman named jen, containing a gorgeous pair of earrings (picture also below) that i ordered from her etsy shop, minusOne.  jen’s shop is chock full of beautiful old fashioned jewelry made from vintage findings.  in the next week or two i’ll be doing a post about etsy and the handmade options you can find on the site, featuring an interview with the lovely jen, owner of minusOne. stay tuned . . . .
