This week’s Featured Buyer is Ez of style blog Creature Comforts. She’s a great supporter of the handmade lifestyle, as well as an Etsy seller herself. Ez has an eye for well composed photos, design sense up to her ears and puts together a heck of an inspiration board. Without further ado, here’s Ez!

Hi everyone! I’m Ez (Ee-Zee).  I’m an adjective lover, have been known to pronounce Etsy as Eat-See, and am super excited to have the chance to share some of my favorite finds with you today. 

I’m a huge fan of indie and handcrafted goods, and am an Etsy shop owner myself. (Check me out at wrenandchickadee!)  To me, there is something so unique and irreplaceable about handmade products.  So much of a designer’s heart goes into creating her unique work, and it’s truly wonderful to hold something in your hands or display something in your home that has such a direct connection to its creator.  This is part of the reason why I make a point of featuring independent artists on my blog Creature Comforts as often as I can… that and indie is where it’s at!


I don’t have plans to get married anytime soon, but if that day should ever come I will be permanently affixing one of kateszabone’s stunning creations onto my finger.  I love her work!


A while back I purchased one of these wonderful little mini tag books from erinzam, so I can tell you from experience that they are even lovelier in person and so well made.  I use mine for sketches of the things I’m thankful for and it’s perfect.


Half of the reason I rarely write “thank you” cards is because there never seems to be a card perfect enough to send.  Well, palomasnest has solved my problem with her fabulous thank you wood stationery cards.  I better get writing.


I’ve  been obsessed with cowls lately but sometimes they can look a little bit dated.  The keo chubby by Joodito has not even one ounce of old lady fashion in it and is absolutely fab to the max!


I love the trend we’ve been seeing of unique motivational prints.  The we are in this together print by lorenasiminovich is one of my favorites.  So simple and wonderful.


Another artist I’m extremely fond of is Caitlin Shearer of pepperminte.  Her little knickers piece is displayed in my home along with several other works of hers.  I just can’t get enough of this girl’s talent!


It’s hard to pick a calendar these days because there are just so many good ones to choose from.  This birdie II calendar by smeurer8 made it on to my must have list because I can’t resist the bird motif, and its petite size and lovely wood backing make it truly unique!


The tiny golden honeyed dots necklace by eRosasjewelry is another Etsy purchase that I have been absolutely thrilled with.  I find myself picking out outfits around this little beauty, so that I can wear it as often as possible.


I love the French cottage feel of this beautiful doily pillow by SparklePower. It’s delicate in appearance, but not overly done, so this would look fabulous on a bed or couch!


Every woman needs a good black bag, and the belle tote by christystudio should be it.  The price is phenomenal and the style is perfection!  I love it!


Yes, I’m a sucker when it comes to little forest creatures.  I’d love to pin this little yellow fawn pin by theilluminatedowl to my bag or fall coat for a touch of color and sweetness to brighten any dreary day.


All you have to do is read the scrumptious list of scents that you can choose from with these soy candles by blisscandles and you’ll be hooked just like I am. Vanilla hazelnut mocha anyone?!
