Friday's Favorites: Farewell

I've decided to hang up my Friday's Favorite hat and pursue some other adventures. So for this, my final Friday's Favorites post, I bring you my three favorites for saying a fond farewell.

First, this Comtemporary Passport Case from Whimbrella is just divine. Definitely a must have for your next trip!

Keep yourself entertained on that plane, train, or automobile with this dandy On the Go Checkers Roll by JenSport. Very clever!

And the last and final Friday's Favorite is the perfect backpack to put all your fond memories in. This Backpack Purse is from MiniMade and I think it is gorgeous.

Friday's Favorites: Crafters Who Care

In lieu of the traditional Friday's Favorites post, I come to you on a Thursday with an appeal for the victims and families of victims from the earthquake in Haiti. If you're able to help, please find a reputable organization to give monetary donations to. The Red Cross is doing telethons across the nation this week, as are many other good organizations. Also, if you're looking for a unique way to give, many Etsy sellers are donating their proceeds or portions of their proceeds to the relief efforts. You can find such offerings here.

Friday's Favorites: Cats vs. Dogs

Happy New Year and welcome to a new year of Friday's Favorites!

I thought I'd start this year off in a quirky way with some inspiration from a radio report. On my way to work this morning I heard about a survey asking which is better, cats or dogs. It got me to thinking about what Quiltsy has to offer in the way of pet accoutrement, so here's my favorites this Friday:

I'm not sure which is cuter the Reversible Urban Chic Dog Jacket from Perennial Piecer or the cute puppy who's wearing it! Tres chic!!

I think any of my three cats would love to curl up on this divine Cat Mat from Eclectic Armadillo. Purrfectly heavenly!

And to really show some love to your dog, cat, hamster, rabbit, snake - well, any pet I imagine - check out Paw and Purrs' custom OOAK pet portraits.

Find more great items for your furry friends and the humans who love them by entering "Quiltsy" + "pet," "cat," or "dog" in the Etsy search fields.
