Etsy Finds – Week 27-2009

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 - etsy finds

Another mixed bag of random Etsy goodness.
Palepink
A shop from Denmark – finally something closer to my neck of the woods than all the american shops I keep finding.
What drew me here were the journals made from bike inner tubes, which I think is an awesome idea, even though I am not the world’s [...]

Etsy Finds – Week 26-2009

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009 - etsy finds

Oldtimer Rallye in Mellingen

Saturday, June 6th, 2009 - default

Mellingen is the next village down the road from where I live and there was an oldtimer rallye coming through there today. Actually, they didn’t just drive through, they stopped there for a couple of hours.
I love old cars, they all look so very pretty. Not that I would ever spend so much time and [...]
