#happyhandmade week 90: my favorites

Every Wednesday on the Daft Crafts blog, there is a #happyhandmade link up where handmade shop owners can share up to three product links and are asked to share at least three of the other products on social media with the hashtag "#happyhandmade."

In no particular order, here are my favorites as of this afternoon (11/19/2014):

This adorable wee amigurumi knit gingerbread man from Crafteroni & Cheese. I mean, c'mon, how cute is this tiny, little guy?! And a bonus, Crafteroni & Cheese is one of the shops participating in the big #StorenvyFlash30 event!

This stuffed monster from Lu & Ed is also pretty cute and would make a great Christmas gift for a kid on your list. Mara isn't available yet, but she will be on November 30th in time for the #StorenvyFlash30 event on Storenvy. The awesome WAHM behind Lu & Ed is the organizer of the event. Her monsters and mon-stors are insanely popular and sell out super quickly. So if you're a fan of something she has teased for her next stocking, you need to be there as soon as it's live many times!

I am in need of a new wallet and this pretty purple one from BirdsandBagz in the link up caught my eye. I think it's a very real possibility for my new wallet! Not only is it pretty, it's super affordable!

**If I get the chance, I will come back and update this post with more of my favorites and the date they are added.**

#StorenvyFlash30: Mystigail Hand Stamped Jewelry - Updated

One of the shops that I am looking forward to purchasing from is Mystigail Hand Stamped Jewelry. I would really like to be able to purchase two of the New Baby Ornaments - one for each of my boys. I have even included the ornament in my #StorenvyFlash30 collection on SE!

There are so many wonderful hand stamped items in this shop. It ranges from ornaments to jewelry to wine charms to bookmarks. Here are a few of my favorite items available in the Mystigail shop:

First up is the Heartbeat bracelet. It's listed as wonderful for medical personnel, but even though I'm not in the medical field, I really love it.

Next is the New Baby ornament that I want two of. This is the perfect keepsake ornament for Baby's First Christmas. They're personalized with Baby's birth stats and name, and you can choose blue, pink or white ribbon for the ornament.

I love this Santa's Key. It's perfect for families without a fireplace, but kids still young enough to believe in the magic of Santa. Or families like ours that have a fireplace that is locked up tight to keep curious little ones out of it, so Santa can't use our fireplace anyway. lol

I am one of those breastfeeding, semi-natural minded mommas, and I have many friends that breastfeed (or breastfed) their babies. So this last one is perfect for the momma friends in my life.

Update, 02/09/2015:
I did purchase two of the New Baby ornaments and was so happy with the quality of them! Due to unfortunate circumstances beyond her control, Susan was not able to complete and ship the ornaments to me as quickly as she would have liked, so she very generously included a cuff bracelet as a consolation. So I also one of those awesome heartbeat bracelets! Not only did she do a great job on what I ordered, she went above and beyond to keep me happy as a customer. It was greatly appreciated! I definitely recommend checking out her shop and buying from her for your hand stamped needs.
