Etsy Boutique of the Week: Transit Design


custom subway sign

I’ve always loved the look of vintage transit signs
so I am thrilled to discover that
with a little help from Michael Jon Watt of Transit Design
it’s easy to create your own personalized versions.

Just send him the names and/or addresses of 11-13
places you’ve lived or visited and then sit back
and wait for your customized piece to arrive.

Not a vagabond?
Then how about creating a vision-board version
with a list of the all the cities you WANT to visit!

Prices start at $299.

Available at Transit Design.

If you resolved to be more organized this year,
you may as well do it with style and
that’s where Papa Totoro can help.

Sahara, the owner of Papa Totoro,
uses vintage wallpaper blocks and her own
original hand-drawn and -carved lino sheets
to create these beautiful storage bins.

Because do we want to see your clutter?
Uh-uh.

Do we want to see beautiful clutter keepers?
Oh, yeah.

Items shown available in various sizes from $24-35.

Available at Papa Totoro.

Etsy Boutique of the Week: The Fedora’d Finch


vintage dictionary print

Most dictionaries go to landfills to die but a lucky few are recycled
and given new life as wall art by The Fedora’d Finch.

You can choose prints of some of your favorite characters–
I particularly like the one with Audrey Hepburn–
and quotes from an array of personalities.

Can’t decide? Provide your own custom saying.

With prices from $8.99 to $12.99 and their current Buy 3 Get One Free deal,
you can afford to go overboard and get more than one.

(Plus Zuburbia readers can enter save10 at checkout and receive
an additional 10% off any item!)

Available at The Fedora’d Finch.

Etsy Boutique of the Week: Nicole Porter Design

Delightful!

That’s the word that comes to mind
when I visit Nicole Porter Design.

Her quirky hand-painted bowls, spoons and hand-printed napkins
make fabulous housewarming and bridal shower gifts
but you’ll be tempted to grab an item or two for yourself, too.

My favorites are the I Love USA napkins
with your choice of state decals.

Someday I’m gonna host a party where
every guest at the table has a napkin
with their personal birth state!

Featured items from $28 to $185.

Available at Nicole Porter Design.

Etsy Boutique of the Week: The Drifter Leather


custom fit fringed suede loafers

When I was a young ballerina, I remember my mom tracing the outlines
of my feet onto sheets of paper which were then mailed to a company
who created custom-fit toe shoes just for me.

The Drifter Leather asks you to trace your feet the same way
so that each pair of their sandals, boots or loafers will fit you perfectly.

Great style AND a comfy fit? That’s a match made in shoe heaven.

Available at The Drifter Leather.
