Introducing you to - BlankCanvasbyBrandon

Hi There.....Do you like engraved items?

Wonderful then let me introduce you to BlankCanvasbyBrandon.

A shop where you can find unique items for all occasions. They specialize in wood working, wood burning and glass engraving. Recently they expanded the shop to include car decals and door mats as well 😊

It all started when in 2014 the shopowner recieved a wood burner & glass etcher from his parents as a christmas gift. Having a background in art, he figured he'd give it a go. He started making gift items for his friends and family. Sure enough many of them started asking for more pieces for their homes. This hobby and passion for art evolved into a business that this shopowner absolutely loves!

I think that is something a lot of Etsy shopowners have in common, the love and passion for their business.

With the help of his wife, the business evolved into something much bigger than he ever imagined. His wife, who is a stay at home mom, started to take over many aspects and continues to market, manage and aid in production of most items in the shop. Outside of Etsy he works full time as a financial advisor, but continues to work at his Etsy shop and passion at home.

Enough talking 😉 Let me show you some of their creations

Smores Bar, Indoor Smores Bar Station, Wedding Dessert Station



Plant Holder, Hanging Basket Plant Holder, Wood Plant Stand



Skull Glasses, Skull Wedding Glasses, Bride and Groom Skulls



Shotski, Personalized Shotski, Rustic Shotski

Reversible Scarecrow Snowman - Porch Decor



Personalized Shotski Shot Glasses, Custom Shotski Glasses



Fathers Day Gift, Personalized Hammer, Engraved Hammer

So tell me what you think? Surely you must agree that those are some one of a kind items 😃 Be sure to browse the shop if you want to see more.

Introducing you to - KOSHA6

Hi There.....Do you like to accessorize  ?

Yes? Great.....so let me introduce you this week to KOSHA6 ðŸ˜ƒ

The idea for the shop had been developing in the owners mind from 2016. Based upon experiences of a journey from Fashion to Yoga and evolved to combine those two. August 2018 KOSHA6 was officially born. It is a shop with craftsman yogic healing tools designed and wrapped in bohemian spirit, with the responsibility to always cause the least possible environmental harm.

That is a responsibility that keeps us all busy the latest years, and I really do think that is very important 😟

KOSHA6 aims to reclaim a new way of life, one that is rooted in yoga, culture, craft, community, green earth and handmade. It stands at a crossing of local, global, traditional, innovative, reinventing and contemparary. The shopowner believes in taking inspiration from our rich old culture and moving forward, and that Fashion has the power to change lives.

This jewelry has shifted Fashion to touching the soul instead of just the body and therefore is called  jewelry for body, mind and soul. They can be with yogic healing tools or with purposeful talismen designed with a bohemian look. The proces of creation is as precious to the shopowner as the production of a beautiful product.

Products made this way do so much more than just bring pleasure to the customer. They create a link between the user and the artisan, they keep help the traditional approuch to crafts alive and in continues evolution, and create an opportunity for the whole community and their welfare.

Here are some items I selected from this lovely shop 😊

Rudraksha Howlite Turquoise Mala, mala necklace



Amber stone wire wrapped pendant, unisex pendant



Antique Silver ancient goddess pendant , Yoga Pendant



Tourmaline Citrine Mala, Tourmaline mala, citrine necklace



Lava Red Tiger eye Buddha Necklace, obsidian buddha pendant



Sandalwood Blue Jade Mala, Yoga Mala, unisex Necklace



Rudraksha Chakra Mala, Mala, Rudraksha mala, chakra mala



Rudraksha Clear Quartz Mala, Tree of life, Necklace



Lava Green Jade mala, lava mala, green jade necklace



Rudraksha Carnelian Mala, rudraksha mala, carnelian mala



See something you like? The collection is for those with a bohemian spirit and an eco-sensitive conscience and who love to have meaning behind everything they do or wear 😊

Hope you like my blogpost.....Until next time.....Have a great weekend

Crowdfunding Campagne - New Collection for BeadworkSeadbeady

Hi There.....Have you ever heard of crowdfunding ?

Crowdfunding is a way to raise money - mostly online through social media and crowdfunding platforms - with the collective efforts of friends, family, customers and individual investors.

I have been working together with Ulule to get a campaign going to get a new collection for my Etsy shop BeadworkSeadbeady. And it is almost ready to be launched now 😃

What would that new collection be you might wonder. The money raised would be used mostly to buy more gemstone beads and crystals to upgrade some of my creations.

On Ulule you can find a lot of wonderful projects to discover and help realize. Since the launch in october 2010 already thousands of creative, innovative or community-minded projects have been financed through funders out of 193 countries.

If you are wondering how you can help? It is fairly simple: on each page on the right side you can find a list of the different amounts and the rewards offered in exchange for those amounts. Click on the amount you want to contribute. You will be asked to create an Ulule account in order to provide a secure environment for your payment.

I think that is a great way of funding with these rewards😊 You would actually be buying my jewelry at a discount.

Let me show you some of the rewards for funding my campaign

Celtic Knot Earrings in Black and Silver



Red Crystal Jewelry Bargello Beaded Necklace



Butterfly Jewelry Beadwork Necklace of own design



Blue Necklace for Woman Chunky Jewelry



Woman Jewelry Tassel Beaded Necklace



Off course if these are not the ones you want there is always the option to choose something else for the same amount. So are you interested or do you know anyone that could be interested? The campaign will only be running for 45 days so be sure to pass it on or even share if you want to help me reach the intented goal 😘

Hope you like my blogpost.....Until next time.....Have a great weekend

Introducing you to - SunnySideCouture

Hi There.....Are you a fan of Vintage style fashion?

If so be sure to read on, cause today I am introducing you to SunnySideCouture

The shop owner's name is Sunny....you can understand where the name comes from 😊

She is a costume designer and got into designing vintage style menswear through music. That is something you don't hear every day.
She played the saxophone since she was 14 and has always been a fan of big band music. She started playing at Lindy hop parties and that's what inspired her to make 30's and 40's style clothing.
It didn't take long before she became full time occupied with making swing trousers. What a cool name for a pair of trousers.....don't you agree?

After having made 100 trousers, she decided to get help with executing. Together with Arnhem Fashion factory she found a small factory in Romania to execute her designs.
That is not an easy task, because she is very picky on details and pre-war menswear has a lot of them. Like little watch pockets, adjustment straps, piped pockets, welt pockets,... and they all have to be perfect.

To make sure she gets the quality she wants, she sources all the materials herself. For the trousers and waistcoats they use beautiful 100% wool all made in the EU. Sometimes she gets lucky and finds the absolute top quality tweeds that she then uses for custom made orders.

Today I will show you some items I picked from her Etsy shop. But if you are interested in more you can always visit her shop or go to her website www.onthesunnyside.nl.  And for those who would like to pay a visit to The Hague....you can go and see her work live at Masterly the Hague....this is the website if you are interested www.masterlytehague.com

Tweed waistcoat, 1930's style men's vest, tweed vest



Vintage style mens polo, retro shirt, vintage sports clothing



Dress Shirt in vintage style, vintage mens dress shirt



Retro bow tie, bowtie in '20 style, art deco bow tie



Red mens coat with imitation fur collar

Knickerbocker '20 style, linnen knee pants



Vintage style dress, Lindy hop dress with vintage print

I like her style...what about you? Would your husband like this vintage inspired kind of clothing?

Introducing you to - treesizeverse

Hi There.....Are you a fan of handmade bags?

If your answer is yes I have great news for you, cause today I want to introduce you to Treesizeverse.

The maker of this shop was born and raised in a small village in Belgium. His parents and grandparents were fruitfarmers. His inspiration came from his grandmother, who sewed a lof of different things.
He followed a classical tailoring course, but lost interest in it, and went to the Academy of fine art and studied printmaking.
He worked as a full time artist for several years, and had the opportunity to exhibit all over the world.
After a gap of 18 years he found the taste again to design and make things on his sewingmachine.

Just like many other Etsy shop owners he started very small. Not being able to find the right bag for him, made him decide to make one himself. He got so many nice compliments and requests from friends and family that he decided to make some for other people.

So when one day he opened shop he had a clear vison. He wanted to make bags that would last for a long time, and even get better by use. He looked for special fabrics like antique linen, and waxed canvas. They had proven themself to be great survivors in time, and get more beautiful with age.

He is still learning today and wants every new bag to be better than the one before 😊

So are you getting excited to see those amazing bags of him. Don't let me keep you in suspence any longer 😉

Wax Canvas backpack/ Hipster backpack



Leather tote bag canvas / carry all / diaper bag



Waxed canvas bag/ bike accessory bag



Convertable backpakc in bike pannier / bike bag in waxed cloth



Waxed canvas messengerbag / cross body bag



Waxed cloth small bag / small zipper pouch / coin purse



Waxed cloth day bag / small messenger bag 



Bagpack of waxed canvas with vegetable tanned leather bottom



Pouch in waxed cloth toiletbag, make-up bag



Childrens bagpack / waxed canvas backpack for kids



Stunning bags.....aren't they 😮 I am a fan that's for sure

Hope you like my blogpost.....Until next time.....Hope you have a great weekend
