brownsco

Its Christmas and New Year season, the season of shopping lists and budgets. Check out brownsco, an affordable gift-shop on etsy. In their own words-

" We are a husband and wife artist team. I work with wood, chalkware, clay and papier mache. My wife works with dried, fresh and artificial flowers and hypertufa. These creative passions led us in 2008 to start Brown’s Country Originals. The name came from our one of kind work, living in the country and our last name. Besides the paper mache and chalkware we have a line of garden items my wife makes country/primitive hypertufa birdbaths, flower planters and flower pots. Hypertufa is a lite weight concrete. I make country/primitive wooden potting benches, planter and garden stakes."

MoveMe

So, this post has nothing to do with etsy or fashion or anything remotely familiar to this blog. But, it is related to something much more important. LIFE. You know when you have been living in a place for quite a while, familiar with everything about it and then suddenly you are made to move. Adding to you tensions is the tension of moving all your stuff from one place to another. I have found a company that could provide a solution for all your moving problems. MoveMe. They will not only help to plan organise the big move, but also help you with conveyancing. They provide free conveyancing quote. After that, you don't even need to worry about your phone connection and gas&Electricity bills. MoveMe takes care of all that. And much more. They have a very comprehensive checklist, which cover essential aspects from 6-8 weeks before you move in to the very first day in your new home. They have guides for those moving with children or pets and also for those moving with disablities.

There's also a page for first-time buyers. For all the newbies out there, moving can be quite unnerving and i am guessing they will find this very useful. This site takes the hassle out of moving so that you can sit back and relax. Plan and organise the move, get local removal quotes, cheap conveyancing, tranfer your utilities like broadband and phone connection without any headaches. Sounds too good to be true, right. I thought so too, but it all looks legit to me! Check for yourself if you don't wanna trust my judgement. Their customers have left such strongly posotive feedbacks that I am sure this site is just the perfect solution to moving problems. Do let me know how MoveMe works for you!

factorygirlashli : Feature + Giveaway

Meet factorygirlashli - an extremely adorable and cute shop on etsy. All necklaces are packaged by them in cute little gift boxes which is even listed in The Factory. Pink items in her shop are raising money for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. For every item sold, she donates $1 to help the fight. Also, you will receive a $1 off coupon for a future purchase. So, purchase great pieces at affordable prices and make your contribution to an even greater cause. How perfect is that!

In her own words-

" My name is Ashli. I am the "factory girl" in factorygirlashli. I chose my name because my philosophy in life has been influenced a ridiculous amount by the pop artist Andy Warhol. We share a love for McDonalds and common things and love to see the beauty in everything and everyone. However, he was more of a philosophical guide than an artistic one. My style of work is nothing like Warhol's. I have a more vintage, rustic, whimsical feel. I love working with antiqued brass, glass beads, czech flowers, and chiffon. My favorite things to create are necklaces, greeting cards, and hair blossoms. I like to help everyone see the beauty in themselves and feel beautiful when they are wearing something special and unique from The Factory."
