So I’m coming to the end of my university career (less than a month left!) and, as a result, I have quite a lot of work to do. This, then, seems like the perfect time to put up another Etsy Finds post! This is a themed list, all about summer and summer-related stuff, which is making me very excited to be free. 27th of May baby!
I’m going through a serious orange phase at the moment (as you will see later on) but my first love will always be bags. Bags are the best and this one, a cooler/lunch box hybrid thing is perfect for summer picnics and has the added advantage of looking super cool. Bonus points for just using it as a normal handbag.
This is listed as a teapot, which is clearly is, but its bright sunflower design just makes me think of it filled with juice or (let’s be more honest) Pimms. The two teacups that come with it have removable handles, so can very quickly become cocktail-ready tumblers. So it’s perfect for summer AND winter drinking: it’s the whole package.
Some people (I should add, not me) are inspired by the improved weather and begin gardening. If that sounds like you, there are plenty of awesome planters on Etsy to chic up your yard, but I have a soft spot for this one because a) orange and b) dachshund. What more do you need?
I saw this on the front page and immediately fell in love. A sunglasses case is a must have if, like me, you are always losing or breaking them when they’re loose in your bag. I think the design on this is so simple, so summery and it has the added advantage of being leather, so it’ll definitely last longer than any pair of sunglasses I’ve ever owned.
So this is just my new favourite ‘totally unnecessary but totally awesome’ shop on Etsy: matchboxes made to look like VHS tapes. It’s genius. It’s an amazing selection, it’s fun, they’re not expensive and (struggles to find a reason why this is related to summer) god for barbecues? General fire-raising? I just love them, okay?!
That’s my picks! Next time I post I will, undoubtedly, be done with formal education and might manage to write about something not in list form. Maybe. If you want to see all the things that couldn’t make the list, then you can see or follow all my favourites by clicking here. I’ve also recently added a new list, all about my favourite Peanuts products (of which there are many) which can be found here.
[Note: I cannot guarantee these things are available even two minutes after posting, as many are one of a kind but I bet the other things the shop has are great too!]
