I love ads that are loveable.

I’ve never seen an advertisement quite like this. It was creative, well-done, well-crafted, and innovative. Wow!

Etsy Earth

You may be familiar with Etsy.com, an online collection of individuals who sell handmade goods, but have you heard of Etsy Earth? It’s a team of sellers who are “committed to sustainability, aware of current eco-issues, taking responsibility for making the best, well-balanced choices for their shops with the safety and quality of their products in mind.” Their list of shops includes: Personal Care, Clothing, Baby Items, Accessories, Household items, Stationery, and Garden. Pictured above are plantable cards, darling upcycled slippers, and a super swanky little black dress.

Another part of Etsy that I love is that you can search your area. You can support your community, connect with crafters near you, and cut down on shipping – maybe even saving a few dollars at the same time.

Awkward Family Photos

Ever wondered what the kid with the clarinet is really thinking?

AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com is one of my favorite web sites right now. Every regrettable fashion choice, inappropriate pose, and photo manipulation disaster brings me so much joy.

Marina and the Diamonds

I discovered this video (and the band in general) about an hour ago. I’m already hooked.
