I wish I was talented enough to have an Etsy store. I just spent an afternoon decoupaging (more on that at another time) and I’m simply exhausted. Yet everything I’ve learned has been through my fabulous friend, Laura. Through much goading by all of her friends, we got her to create one of the most fabulous up and coming Etsy stores to date.
I’ve only every purchased one thing off of Etsy, but it was worth it. When you find a good shop, it’s worth the price you pay. Some people are just naturally better at DIY than others (mainly, me). I have personally seen the hours Laura slaves over her creations, and her store, Arrowsandangels, is just blossoming with some of her best products.
Mostly known for her gorgeous jewelry and crafty jewelry boxes, Laura has begun her site to spark interest in numerous different outlets.
Are you an astrology geek? Simply love gazing at the stars? Check out this fabulous galaxy jewelry box:
My personal favorite is the pendant in the photo below. Laura has a way of taking some of the most random items she finds either at thrift stores or just ideas she sees and making them come to life in her art. I’m not going to lie, I may be asking her to make me one of those…
She’s my friend, so naturally I assume I’m overly biased, but expect a lot more than eight starter items in the coming weeks from ArrowsandAngels (I personally love the name). I’ve seen what she can do, hell it’s all over her walls at school and at home, and I know it is worth it. I’m just hoping some of her skill rubs off on me!
Lovelies, do you shop on Etsy? Will you check out ArrowsandAngels?

Based on these pictures I can say with confidence that I will not be checking out that Etsy shop.

I have my own Etsy shop here. (yes, I am plugging my own store here on a post meant to highlight another store lol. shameless plug right here
)
ArrowsAndAngels’s stuff isn’t my style so I won’t be shopping there :-\ But I wish her luck. It can be pretty tough having a store on Etsy.

This was a bad way to use lovelylish. I’m just saying. It will probably get your posts knocked down a few points in my eyes.

@Cestovatelka@xanga - your stuff is so pretty!!!

@flapper_femme_fatale@xanga - Thank you!

I’m not impressed. I liked the galaxy box at first, then I saw the creepy sun and moon on the inside. They made the box seem tacky and cheap…

I love looking at stuff on Etsy!
And actually, I plan on making my own in the future… Just to sell my sculptures. c:
there’s pretty cute, especially if you like fantasy, but I totally haven’t made enough to have a ‘shop’ on there yet.
Also, my favorite stuff on Etsy… Is Amy Brown stuff. *.* oh GOSH I love her stuff!
I’m a fantasy geek.

I like this stuff and use/ wear it …buuut I consider myself pretty much a craft-person, so if I see something I like I usually MAKE it and don’t buy it
. Maybe one day when I’m rich and busy

i know as an etsy seller you have to shamelessly plug your shop every.where.you.can. (i know, i had an esty shop for a little while and toy with re-opening). However something about this plug just seems….tacky. meh, enjoy the hits and possible sales.
