Somebody Else’s Handmade Finds

OK, so you know how I’ve begun building this list of places to buy indie here on my site. And another thing is that I periodically have a Top 10 of things I like that’s sorta topical.

Well today I happened across the HomeGrown market today and those two things just pretty much collided. So I thought instead of writing up my own finds today, I’d share the Market with you by way of their lists.  They have 13 hand-picked lists and they are organized by theme.

Also, you can request custom-made items on HomeGrown Market.  Just type up a description and the craftspeople and artisans on the site can bid on your job!  Nice!

The lists can be found on the front page.  Click on the numbers to cycle through the themes!  (sorry, the lists are in a frame on the page, so I can’t give you links to the individual pages!)

1. Think Spring. This Baby Minky blanket is definitely spring-like with its bright yellows and greens. I love bright, cheery colors for babies, and this fits the bill. Not only that, but the lining looks really soft and furry. Made by Quilt Baby.

2. Strawberry Fields Forever

3. Purple Rain

4. Thought Provoking. I was really taken by these Simple Sentiments cards. Cute and as advertised, simple. Made by Rosebud Designs.

5. Blooming Summer

6. Oh, Baby Baby

7. We were meant for each other. I find myself wishing there were another part to this puzzle piece pendant. Just the one is beautiful, though. Made by Atlantis Designs of Seattle, WA.

8. Wine and Roses

9. I’m Blue Without You. From the blue collection, a pair of resin earrings in the shape of flowers… Made by Bear Creek Creations.

10. Isn’t ORANGE your favorite color?

11. YOU color my world

12. Girly Girl

13. Even before I met you, I knew I loved you…  This Blossoming Belly tea for pregnant women might just be the ticket.  Created to nourish and taste great from Full Circle Natural Herbs.
