you don't have to make it yourself anymore!

Bonnie BandThe other day I was googling around trying to find pattern reviews for one of the dresses I'm making, and found this cool weblog written by a very cool crafty chick. While it turned out not to be the pattern I was looking for, I was sucked into Sarah's stories (your wedding dress is BEAUTIFUL!). Near the bottom of her recent posts page, she had photograph these awesome bonnet/headbands she had made and was selling on Etsy.

Have y'all heard about Etsy yet? This is the coolest place ever. A giant flea market/ebay of hand crafted stuff (and resources for some of the supplies to make said stuff)! This is the best idea ever! I am very interested in staying out of the mall and wearing unique and beautiful pieces. Something like Etsy is perfect for me. Needless to say, I paypalled myself one of Sarah's Bonnie Bands and am now awesomely able to keep my hairs out of my face while looking fierce. Or cute. Whatever.

Anyway, check out Sarah, check out Etsy, check out Sarah on Etsy, and check out more pictures of my purchase on my flickr stream!

Hey there first customer! I was just checking out my stats and they brought me to this post. You are such a sweetie! And the bonnie band looks soooooo cute on you! Would you mind if I borrowed your images - I may start a flickr set to show how they look on other people. I think they look so awesome with short hair! Cheers!
