Thursday Portrait

Look at this most fabulous pair of socks that I got on ETSY! They are handmade wool and come all the way from Finland. The makers shop is called Suburban Goddess, go check her out! These socks are just perfect for me because I cannot stand my toes to be warm.
I am wearing them right now, and they feel so cozy and fabulous! Thank you Miia from Finland!
I am also waiting for another ETSY purchase from 2 weeks ago, which is my favorite lavender scented bubble bath. The maker of this bubble bath is pretty slow to ship, however. You know, like EBAY, you have a rating for your customer service etc....it's really just not cool to give someone negative or neutral feedback even, but if I don't get my bubble bath soon........what?
A girl needs her bubble bath, dammit!

Speaking of ETSY, I did so well in the month of April, and there is still almost a week left! My best month ever. I love you, ETSY.
Now kiddies, if you need a gift, get on over to ETSY, forget the mall. You will not believe the awesome stuff you will find, at really reasonable prices, and most of it handmade. Most of it? What's that, you say?
Well, what you might not know is that ETSY also has a lot of arts and craft supplies such as fabrics, beads, jewelry findings, patterns, and a fricking ton of vintage clothing and kitchy stuff as well. Although the vintage stuff isn't handmade and has no business clogging up tags and categories, dammit!, it supports the reduce, reuse and recycling thing, and that is why I can barely fucking tolerate it it belongs on ETSY.

I am out of town until Tuesday.
Have a lovely week!

Awesome socks ... you know G is going to love it!

Can't stand to have your toes warm? I can not stand to have them trapped as in tucked in covers. I guess to each their own.

LOVE the socks! I have a pair like that too, but with the toes in, and each toe of a different color. It's more of a gay rainbow colored kinda of thing, but still...

Have a great week yourself!

HUGS...

Miss Susie, Are you pandering to the foot fetish crowd once again by letting them glimpse your darling twinkle toes? Fun socks, BTW.

I have a question for you, "Is that your tub?" If it is then I'm quite envious because our tub isn't in the same aesthetic league. I love a nice leisurely soak with some music, candles, and bubbles. This tub looks delightful!

That *is* a fun looking store ^_^ I'll have to go check it out when i have more time. Also, love the socks. I, too, hate for my toes to be hot... ew... I like those toeless socks they sell at bed, bath and beyond that have aloe in the heels...oOoOOooo.. =)

Good to see you finally got good socks from Scandinavia - now you can come over any time and I know you will be fine!

Talking about clothes (again): I proves another Norwegian saying in my last post and this time its clothes-less ;-)
