If you haven’t heard of etsyitemoftheday.com then you’re missing out! Jackie has daily posts on some of her favorite items and finds from Etsy.

Yesterday happened to be embe’s day! Go now and check out what she had to say about our Raffey Graspers.

I have to say, not only do I love Jackie’s taste in Etsy items but I’m in love with her site design!

With a craft room/office in the horizon I’m already imagining myself at the sewing machine whipping up some adorable baby items for my Little Peanut. These are just a few of the amazing patterns I found!

First row: Madeline tie apron dress,  baby sneakers, boutique style swing dress

Second row: Ruffled diaper covers, Mademoiselle coat, Liberty lion plush

Wow! Three of these patterns have already sold in between yesterday and today… yes it actually took me a day and a half to get this post up! It’s hard to work with little fingers tugging at my legs and saying “mama!”

I have never been successful in buying gifts for religious events in Catholic specialty stores, but I feel I hit the jackpot with this weeks favorites.

First row: Personalized Baptism wall hanging, Girl guardian Angel (felt softie), Baby girl embroidered cross blanket

Second row: Custom personalized cross/lovie set, I am a child of God print, God loves me growth chart

Gift giving on a budget doesn’t have to be hard. Check out some of these great items I found for under $21. (I was going for under $20 but fell in love with the iPod cozy!)

First row: Pocket mirror, coffee mug cozy, iPod cozy

Second row: Keep calm and carry on keychain, Spring blossom pendant, Dream big magnet

The whole reason why I learned how to crochet was to make amigurumi. Can you blame me? Just look at these adorable patterns!

I can’t wait until the little peanut gets old enough to play with pretend food so I can whip up some cupcakes, cookies and of course veggies.

First row: Darling duckling, Lion gurumi, Crochet vegetable tray

Second row: Brisa ballerina, Forest friends silly slimy snails, Cupcakes

Third row: Russian Matryoshka, Cotton candy horses, Penelope the empathetic monster

I’ve got a weakness for sweets and these look just delicious! Wish I had the time and talent to make these yummies.

First row: Black forest cupcake, Mocha cake with espresso, Chocolate covered strawberry cake balls

Second row: Country sunflowers, Mint chocolate cookies, Robust decorated sugar cookies

Someday I hope to have a home office that I can outfit with these amazing items. Right now I work at our kitchen counter and could really use that space back for things like eating! It would also be nice to not have to put everything away each day only to have to pull it out in the morning again.

First row: Doodler Crown Binder, Garden of love latte mug, Monkey pencil cup

Second row: Magnetic letter/mail holder, Wine cork & chalk board set, Fabric storage bin

Third row: Vinyl wall sticker calendar, Just more owls inch magnet set, Crochet coasters

Wrapped in a cozy robe and slippers along with a glass of wine, candlelight and soap inspired by the Greek goddess of love…. sounds like my kind of spa day!
