Stormy Seas Treasury

I'm totally digging this treasury.  Look at all that lovely turquoise!  Don't you think gray and turquoise look lovely together?  I can't get enough.
It doesn't hurt that Scarf 19 is one of my most favorite scarves - the two grays are a special alpaca blend that are super soft and squishy.  It's also super long.  And of course, there's the turquoise.

It's only 79 degrees in Austin right now, which is approximately 30 degrees cooler than the hottest temperatures of the past week.  Not exactly scarf weather (even I can admit that).  But just today the wind began to blow, the clouds turned a little darker, and suddenly it felt . . . cool.  Yes, when you're used to triple digits, 79 actually feels cool.  The sky was gray, the breeze was reminiscent of the ocean, and then I came home and saw this treasury, the perfect picture of what I'd been feeling.

I can't stay inside a moment longer - I have to go for a walk to gaze at the clouds and fully appreciate this all-too-fleeting moment of cool.  I hope that wherever you are the weather is doing something nice, giving you a fresh breath of whatever you've been craving.

Gorgeousness

Dad, Padre, Papa by Natalie Kasif

I just couldn't wait to share this gorgeousness.  Do you see that birch journal in the second row?  So lovely.   I'm also loving the old-school-meets-high-tech elements, like the typewriter iPad stand and the distressed iPhone case.

Treasury Time Is Here Again

I'm just loving the colors in these spring treasuries.  I'm biased, of course, but each treasury seems so perfectly crafted to show off the colors of my scarves.  Those luscious, mossy greens and fluffy creams.  Sigh.


Don't you just love how the yellow chevron pillows call out to Scarf 29, in all its yellow and white houndstooth glory?  And get a load of those teals and grays.  Those teals and grays are probably my favorite.  Lovely, lovely, lovely.

Thank you, fellow Etsians, for wrapping my scarves up in prettiness.

January Treasuries

And, lest we think Scarf 39 had stolen the spotlight, here are three more January Etsy Treasuries featuring my scarves. It's always interesting to see who chooses them, what they're paired with, and what they look like in a grouping. Treasuries are like window shopping in an eclectic neighborhood of personal boutiques - they're always a treat to explore. Thanks, Treasury-Makers!

Isn't it interesting that it often shows up in the same spot?

Scarf 39 was purchased on Etsy and is on its way to its new owner in New Jersey. Have a happy life, Scarf 39!

Scarves About Town

Daddy in Winter by WHEATSHEAFaccessory

My scarves are getting out and about and word is spreading too.  I'm being interviewed over at Feeding the Soil today, a lovely blog about dreaming big dreams, setting goals, teaching and raising children in the Montessori method, and other real life things like making yummy food.  It's such a boost to chat with supportive people who are excited about your ideas - thank you, Sara!

It's also high time I shared some Etsy Treasuries that my scarves have been featured in.  Treasuries are collections, assembled by Etsy fans, that showcase a particular style, color, feeling, or whatever strikes the collector's fancy.  It's fun to see a little sampling of all the different types of things available on Etsy.  Here are a few items from a few treasuries.
