The Clutter is Killing Me

For more years than I'd like to admit, I've been using a separate eBay store to clear out our collections of "stuff." Now we're looking at moving, and I really don't want to pack up these treasures and take them with us. I'm certain they'd be much happier in new homes with people who love them.

I've pulled out all of the treasures that aren't yet listed and am cutting prices on everything that's already in that store. Know a Star Wars fan? A war game collector? There are hundreds of CDs, books, games, and collectibles just waiting to be adopted, with new items added every day for the next week (or until I run out of treasures, whichever comes first!). Come have a look!

Lost Mitten: Just Plain Fun!

Lauren of Lost Mitten is a woman of many talents. A self-proclaimed video game addict, she knits, crochets, and makes some of the prettiest buttons I've ever seen. The buttons are created using Japanese papers: washi and Chiyogami (Yuzen). Have a look at a few of my favorites here, but browse through her online shop and find a fun collection of video game related items. Seriously, what gamer's life is complete without a set of Legend of Zelda coasters?

Can I Get That Burrito in Green and Yellow Please?

Now that I'm looking forward to becoming a grandma again I've got my eyes open for unique baby items. I found a few must-haves at Elle Belle.


This Baby Burrito Blanket is perfect for swaddling, large enough to use for more than a couple of months, and would make a terrific "table" for a toddler's (invisible) tea party.





This darling I Spy Quilt looks like hours of toddler fun. Bright colors and child-friendly images will keep your little one engaged and entertained. Double sided means double the fun!

I Was Meant to Love You

Someday I'd love to have a huge collection of art. For now I satisfy myself with searching out new artists, and an occasional splurge on an art-print greeting card. This print by Valérie Parizeault of Witty Workshop is one of my new favorites.





I may splurge on one of her greeting cards. She has a unique way of saying "I love you," that stays with you long after the card has been opened.

Make sure you check out her blog for her monthly giveaways!
