Leatherprince's store

I can't remember when was the last time I purchased a keychain? Normally, I wouldn't go shopping for keychains, it is something that you receive form a car dealer with your new tyres or as a promotional material from a shop across the street. But this store has completely changed my point of view on keychains and I am looking forward to my friend's birthdays - they will all receive keychains this year. :)
All items in Leatherprinces's store are hand-cut, hand-stitched and design by Beon and his wife Candy.



Candy usually does the picture design and Beon will work on the rest.



They will be more than happy to take a custom order from you.



It's not all about keychains, they make purses, coin pouches, card holders and iPhone cases.

Bomobob photography

I am really into photography and I had my eye on this shop for quite a while.
Bomobob has been passionate about photography from that very first 1960s Kodak Brownie around his wrist at Upper Canada Village...



A great deal of his adult life has been spent travelling the world for extended periods, always with cameras in tow.



His photographic interests run the gamut from intimate portraits to landscapes to ephemera to street life. Although firmly entrenched in the digital age, he has a weakness for film and for old cameras.



These photos have been taken over the years, and are printed mostly on archival quality satin paper, or premium Hahnemuhle cotton photo rag paper. Non-metallic prints are printed with archival pigment inks, which are specified to have a 100+ year life span!



TTV images are taken by shooting the picture with a macro lens, through the viewfinder of an old reflex camera. The images show the dust and scratches of the antique camera's glass surfaces, giving the photo a unique, vintage quality.



He says he will be more than happy to provide prints in specific sizes, with or without borders, even cropped to any wacky size you might want. Isn't that great?

joodito's shop

I absolutely love designer clothes - but when I say designer clothes, I don't mean famous names that you can see in Elle or Vogue. Au contraire mon ami, I love finding an amazing piece designed by a student or even someone who never even studied fashion design but have a great talent to make amazing clothes. Anyway, i was thrilled to find Joodito's shop.



Their moto is:
+ to celebrate the beauty of imperfection,
with the use of weathered textiles
and emphasis on raw aesthetics .



born from salvaged materials
by organic, experimental methods .




a retro futurist.

MiniToes Baby Shoes

I am a proud aunty; my little niece just turned 1 year and shopping for baby clothes is something I just can't resist.
With my little niece (and her little chubby feet) in mind I am happy to present MiniToes shop.



MiniToes comes from Canada and is all about soft sole leather baby shoes. Having 2 little ones and a hard wood floor in the house, the artist says that the shoes saved them from lots of bumps.



The shoes are best for the new crawlers and walkers they are skid resisted and stay on prefect on baby foot, your little ones can not pull them off as easy as they do with their socks!



There is a lot of designs to choose from but they also so custom orders. You can pick your colors ,your own design and size. Isn't that just great?

formfireglassworks's Shop

I discovered this amazing store when I first joined Etsy and am still impressed by simple and gorgeous designs.
The technique is called lampwork and the artist is using Italian Effetre glass.


I don't know about you but I just love the water drop like shapes and gorgeous pastel colours.



Aren't they just gorgeous?
