Still on an Avengers high (and honestly, I don’t know when I’ll get out of it), here are some pieces of artwork that I found on Etsy which I am convinced I need to get right now.

Here’s a gorgeous pop art collection from Rob Osborne:

Christopher Conner is a man after my own heart with these Pantone pieces:

Then there’s this one by Drew Blank, which I’ll have to get for my future children, because this is now the only acceptable way to learn the alphabet:

In my search for the perfect pair of sandals, I saw these:

- Isabel Marant Merry Sandals (via Net-A-Porter)
- Chloé Leather Sandals (via Net-A-Porter)

Let’s see how much self-control I have. *gulps*

Or… birthday gift, anyone?

I have so much love for Old New Again’s Key Hooks with Vase that I wouldn’t mind having a bunch of these at home.

They come in a variety of colours too, and they all look soooo good.

The Seafoam might be my favourite though. :)

The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most, by Dashboard Confessional

Isn’t it a cute name for a shop?

Tinydipity was a real chance encounter as my work mates and I had merely planned on enjoying tea at House a couple of weeks ago. We were seated right next to this makeshift store beside our table, and we couldn’t take our eyes off all these cute bags and lunchboxes that were calling out to us.

Exactly how cute? THIS CUTE:

There were also plenty of other products on display such as these insanely adorable water bottles, which I so badly wanted and ended up buying the owl one just yesterday:

We also saw a very attractive range of original “wet proof” bags exclusively made for the store, which were perfect for sandwiches, toiletries and other knick-knacks:

We wondered if there were other more adult-friendly products like laptop cases or iPad covers, even though we actually and unabashedly wanted everything for ourselves. Needless to say, the very friendly owner, Laurel, told us that she was actually catering to the Mumsies. Which makes sense cos I guess they have all the legitimate reasons to buy cute products like these, don’t they? Heh.

As Laurel is a mother herself, you can be sure that all the imported products on Tinydipity have been carefully picked and are safe for babies and children. The original products are painstakingly handmade by a work-at-home mum in the US and a retired mum in Singapore, and are made from organic cotton. Oh, and did I mention that everything is eco-friendly? Don’t we all love that? ;)

And look! There’s babywear too!

I’ve since gone through almost every page on Tinydipity and the whole time I just kept thinking about what I could get for myself my godchildren.

Be sure to check out Tinydipity’s website and Facebook page.

I’m swooning all over these intricately handmade sterling silver jewellery by self-taught British designer Helen Shere. They’re incredibly whimsical and I can imagine they’d be great conversation starters too.

Sighs. Why am I not more talented?

Check out the rest of her collection at her store.

Doo-Wop (That Thing), by Lauryn Hill

Aren’t these the most precious rulers/bookmarks ever? They’re made of eco-friendly birch wood with the cutest designs. I want ‘em all!

From top: Olive Owl, Otto Orca, Crab Kite, Ollie Octopus, Hazel Hedgehog

And here’s a really handy one for all you chefs out there.

Night Owl Paper Goods is a stationery company out of Birmingham, “Owlabama” devoted to creating handmade letterpress cards and eco-chic wooden products. Everything’s just so delightfully charming, and their wooden products are a real winner. They’re extremely well-made and I particularly love that delicious birchwood scent. You can also custom print your own design on their wood cards for that special party deserving of a unique invite. ;)

(Disclaimer: This post is not sponsored. I just really, really like their products. Heh.)

Run To The Water, by Live

I would’ve never thought I’d ever describe stationery as “timeless” or “elegant” until I saw these from Kaufmann Mercantile.

I actually think that pencil is pretty darn sexy. Don’t you?

Pretty Wings, by Maxwell

It was extremely, extremely difficult for me to resist clicking on that “Buy Now” button when I saw the fabulous offerings from Passed By, a delightful trove of all things vintage. Seriously, I would’ve bought half the things in the shop if it weren’t for that smidgen of self-control that I – thankfully – still have.

I mean, just look at these finds! I dare you not to squeal (especially if you’re also a vintage fiend).

There’s heaps more where that came from.

You’re welcome. ;)

I Was Broken, by Marcus Foster

I love a good, slogan tee. Add some wit to it and I’m soooooo buying one. Case in point, this tee from Words Brand:

The best part? It is fully customisable:

And you can make your own shirts:

Or pretty much whatever else is available on the site:

Excuse me while I go customise some stuff.

When Will I See You Again, by The Three Degrees

There’s no denying that canvas totes are the perfect, well, canvas, to display art. Plus, they’re versatile and light, making them perfect for groceries or books.

From the downright cute:
