I know, I know...it's a little late. But I've been realllllly busy, I have an excuse! Still, it's high time to bring you my June/July Sampler faves! And speaking of the Sampler, have you heard they moved to San Francisco? And have you heard they joined forces with the all-mighty Etsy? And have you heard that they are really a "they" now as Marie hired some help, finally! Yes, it's true, it's all true and sure to make the Sampler only get better from here on out. BUT, there is one small hitch. They can only really get better if they have lots of people to contribute samples! I'm planning on even contributing some myself in a couple months for my shoppe, and I've done it before- it's fun, easy, makes you feel really organized, PLUS you get a free sampler that month just for participating! Bonus! You could score goodies like this for yourself:
I received a cute etched glass shot glass from Bread and Badger! It has a little bomb etched on it- it's, yeah, it's the bomb! Or is that, da bomb? Regardless, it's cute, and they also make wonderful little etched glass pins and magnets, vases and more!
I also got a really cute button set from re-conceived! They're one-of-a-kind, made from old books, magazines and vintage ephemera. Mine have the cutest little Japanese drawings on them- so fun!
Also got some yummy smelling, soy based, vegetarian and eco-friendly soap by Botanical Earth! It's made from lavender and a bunch of organic oils...yum. And it doesn't dry out your skin!
And I got a really cool magnet from Little Evelyn made from a real record! It's neato, especially in this vinyl-ridden house I live in (vinyl-ridden in a good way, of course!) There's lots of recycled records getting new life in great ways on the site!
Well that's it for June/July- help make the next Sampler even better by contributing! Then hey, who knows, I may receive your sample and choose it as a favorite to write about, right here! :)
