The Hearts of Gratitude Etsy shop has handmade healing hearts, stitch markers, shawl pins, and pendants. A few years ago Rita and Julie began making healing heats and gave them as gifts, they were so well recieved they decided to start selling items on Etsy. All the metal hearts are made from either copper or brass and genuine semi-precious gemstones. Each heart is crafted with specific intentions in mind and each one is unique. The stitch markers Hearts of Gratitude makes are simply the best I have ever used. The metal doesn’t bend and they slide smoothly on your needles. You never have to worry about your knitting being snagged or the markers falling apart because they are made using excellent materials and craftsmanship. They heart pendants can be worn by themselves as jewelry or you can wear them around your neck while knitting to hold your markers around your neck. Hearts of Gratitude will custom create any heart you like, all you have to do is let them know your needs. L & B hopes you enjoy this shop as much as we do! -B
I am excited to feature this unique and fun L & B Etsy Shop Favorite! This cute little shop was brought to our attention by Ms. Brita, a friend and teacher at the shop. All the products at the Hot Butter shop are handmade by Ashley Ann a stay at home Mom to a sweet little boy. She is a clever crafts woman who loves to create things with both new and repurposed materials. Her little wallets and purses are adorable and her prices are extremely reasonable for the time she is putting into her quality handmade products.
The zipper pouches would be the perfect size for any small items you need to keep together like make-up or change. I am thinking that I need one asap for all my knitting nick nacks or knit nacks. I love the clothes line design on the zipper bag and the bird design with the buttons is really unique and super cute. Ashley also offers free shipping to first time customers. Thanks for checking out the Hot Butter shop! -B
Once a month L & B will be highlighting one of our favorite Etsy shops. This month we are posting about Sammi84 a homemade jewelry shop for bridal and every day. Similar to Leslie and I, the shop is owned and managed by two sisters Sammi and Kelly. At Sammi84 and their sister shop Made by Sam you will find jewelry inspired by nature, made out of fine gem stones, semi-precious materials, sterling silver, and gold filled (rolled gold). Leslie actually bought me one of the pieces for my birthday a few weeks ago and I haven’t taken it off since I opened the package. You will find most of the jewelry featured on the site is very affordable and simplistic.
The packaging and presentation is really cute and great for anyone who is looking for unique handmade gifts. I have received several compliments asking where I found by maple leaf necklace and I am excited to be promoting this shop. You all know that when Leslie went shopping for my birthday present she couldn’t hold herself back from buying a little silver heart for herself and a gold star for our Mom. This actually worked out perfect for us when we decided to post about the products we had three samples to photograph! Thanks to Sammi and Kelly for giving us the opportunity to highlight their Etsy shop on our blog. -B
