Dig ‘n’ Dazzle


Posted by tlcinspirations

Welcome to our Dig n Dazzle Weekly Feature!


Each week, TLC Inspirations will dig into Etsy, and dazzle you with our findings. For our first week, we have chosen our favorites in the Etsy accessories category, selecting items that are natural and organic, or otherwise eco-friendly. Although, we have a great passion for all things handmade, we have an admiration for the artists that are able to combine their creativity with being kind and respectful of our environment. We understand that not all artists are able to incorporate this into their creations, but every little bit helps.

We have not been able to be completely eco-friendly in our own crafting, but we try to use eco-friendly products whenever possible, and reuse when the opportunity presents itself. Art is a gift, and it comes in many packages. These are just a few, in our opinion, that are doing a great job “creating green” in the Etsy community in the accessories category. It is our pleasure, and an honor, to share them with you.

  1. CUTE site!! Happy I found your cute site ! Would love you to follow my site! Let me know and I will follow you too! Great to be out finding these lovely blogs and networking!

  2. We love your zebra bracelets, Beth! And, yes, when you have a talent and are able to combine it with a message for change, all the better, in our opinion :) – Rachel

  3. Oh my goodness – thank you so much for this. I have been out of town all week and could not comment earlier. I really appreciate you picking my zebra bracelets. I try really hard to include the eco friendly aspect in all of my work – no waste, natural elements etc…. I figure if you can create, you can send a message as well. Why waste a talent without sending a message at the same time – you know? Thank you again. I am honored!
    Hugs,

  4. You are welcome, it was our pleasure. I hope that I will eventually find more ways to be an eco-crafter. I think it is so important.

  6. Thanks so much for emphasizing eco-friendly and organic items! I too agree that trying to be as kind and friendly to the earth is our mission as humans, and I'm just glad that I've found one way to do that through my art.

    Thanks for including my bag in your blog post! I really appreciate it!

    Best,
