Etsy Finds: Light and Sweet

When the temperature rises and sticking to a sweaty seat seems inevitable (a perpetual issue for this city dweller!), I reach for cool and timeless materials like linen and eco-friendly organic cotton. There's something so comforting about surrounding yourself with soft and breathable clothing, bags, accessories or home accents. Today's collection of Etsy Finds will leave you reveling in the delicate and blissful textures of natural fabrics.

Great Picks !! :)

gorgeous picks!!

July 21, 2009 at 12:05 p.m. lazydayz

I absolutely love the kids hoodie! Of course being a gramma somewhat influences me :)
But everything is amazing and I love the feel of natural fibers! Maybe if we buy more organic cotton, the price will come down some on supplies of it?

July 21, 2009 at 12:06 p.m. steinschmuckdesign

Lovely choices,
like always!

July 21, 2009 at 12:07 p.m. bylynnkrestel

Wonderful article and beautiful work by these artists! I just started working with linen and LOVE the texture and feel of it. As far as I'm concerned, it's the perfect material!

This is my first linen project so far:

I love the fact that cottons and linens lend themselves so well to recycling. They just get softer and better over time. My favorite tag sale find has to be vintage kitchen linens; the older the better. Thanks for featuring such great items...I'm feeling cooler already.
