Smitten Kitten Saturday // 22

I wasn’t going to post Smitten Kitten Saturday this week, because I haven’t been online enough to have much to show off. But I realized my Etsy favourites treasury is full of vintage treasures and handmade gems, so I thought I’d share some of those along with a few great posts I have seen on the blogosphere lately. Take a look and let me know which is your favourite…

This Peter Pan pendant is made from a print of an intricate papercut image. How beautiful!

I’ve been lusting after this Chantilly lace cropped bolero jacket from the 1950s and then scolding myself for even thinking about buying it (a girl who’s moving across the world does not need another item of clothing). I found a similar, full length piece in a vintage shop by the cottage where we’re staying and ended up taking it home, so this one is still available for you to purchase!

A pretty clutch.

A nerdy t-shirt that’s right up my alley.

My best friend designed an amazing line of handprinted dresses. This is one of my faves.

I am not thinking about getting engaged, but how’s that for a sparkler?!

A charming (and inspirational) laptop decal.

And a few non-Etsy finds…

Elsie’s inspiring me to make my own studded bracelets.

As usual, the photos from Sarah’s circus act are absolutely awe-inspiring.

Macklemore’s collaboration with Ryan Lambert gives me all the feelings. Isn’t it a wonderful anthem for equality?

NoiseTrade offers completely free, legal downloads of full albums. This week they introduced me to Canon Blue and I’m completely smitten with the band’s orchestral pop sound. You can listen to & download their album here.

On that musical note, you may have noticed I haven’t been posting Music Monday lately. For now, I’ll be sharing my favourite new (to me) tracks in these posts, with a few playlists and music-related posts thrown in from time to time.

Phew! That sure a lot longer than usual to put together with our slower than molasses internet connection up here. I hope you enjoyed it! What wonderful things have you found online this week? I’ll be sure to check them out when I get home.

Wishing you a sparkly Saturday,
