Ana Laura Perez

Ana Laura Perez is an Argentina-based jewelry designer, artist and illustrator. Ana says she bases her designs and art on memories, movies and art she loves, and her Russian roots. Her jewelry line consists of necklaces, bracelets, and pins. Her collages are also very intriguing, juxtaposing animate objects, such as a zebra, with inanimate objects, such as a wine goblet. Ana also creates lovely pencil and watercolor pieces, my favorite being the giraffe. Learn more about Ana Laura Perez's work through her blog portfolio.

Zygomatics

Bright, fun and smiley. Those are the immediate things that popped into my head upon discovering Zygomatics. Chloe, who is originally from Switzerland, creates handmade accessories and jewelry reminiscent of kawaii (Japanese cuteness). I love the sweet kawaii lollipop earmuffs made with felt and adorned with beads. The Mr. Cloud hair clip will brighten up any outfit and bring a smile to your face. If you're looking for large, unique accessories, you need a huge ice cream felt pin! And, of course, no funky wardrobe is complete without a smiling banana brooch!!

Pink Sparrow

Besides having one of the cutest banners on Etsy, Pink Sparrow has lots of adorable wool felt pins. I love the colorful flower bunch & the circular floral designs with glass bead centers are delightful. The layered Miles of Squares pin is a wonderful geometric design that will add pizazz to any ensemble. The chunky fat blossom design is another funky piece that I adore. Have a look at all the unique designs Pink Sparrow has to offer.

AnthroPoMorphCo


AnthroPoMorphCo, whose simple mission is to make everything your friend, has classified the "friends" they have created in three categories: mental vegetables, gourds of goth & holly jollies. You can purchase fabulous gift sets, such as the Beet It set, which includes a notecard, one 1" magnetic button, one folding bookmark, & one 1" button pin. There's also lots of terrific stuffed veggies to choose from. The Gourds of Goth may well be my favorite, especially the bobby pins. Grab a set of the Holly Jolly cards so you are well prepared this winter. Don't miss the sale section either.

Petals


Petals is an Etsy shop full of unique tote bags & more. I am definitely wanting a giraffe tote of my own, as well as a cool reversible dress form tote bag. The dinosaurs & Bruno the Rhino are also calling my name. Have a looksie at all of Petals' wonderful creations!

Quixotic Clothing Co.


Brad Tennant and Cody Clark are the socially conscious minds behind Quixotic Clothing Co. The minute I saw the goat shirt I knew I must post about this company! You'll also find vegetarian friendly cow shirts, as well as windmills remniscent of West Texas. The windmill tee for girls is extra cute, as is the pink robot tee. Quixotic also has cool pins featuring clever graphics. The current price of $10 for the tees is in celebration of the company's first anniversary, so take advantage while you can!
