Gorgeous floor coverings from Luke Irwin.  See more here.

Sculptural, tactile, industrial, just a few words that come to mind when looking at Timothy Johns work. And I do have a soft spot for pretty much anything created with felt.  See more for yourself here.

Love these new planters from Orla Kiely.  Available at Wild & Wolf.

Wow! These children’s posters from Square Inch Design. Totally one of those times when I thought to myself “damn, I wish I came up with those.”

Branda is the work of sisters Mariana and Paula.  Each and every piece in their shop is hand knit by them. You can see the care and attention to detail and design. Everything is so lovely! And at this time of year (at least here in the Northeast) who isn’t craving hats and scarves to keep us warm?

And even better, Mariana and Paula are graciously offering FREE SHIPPING to my readers! Simply use coupon code: ATAUBERBLOG at checkout.

I always look forward to seeing who the featured designer of the month is over at From Sthlm. When their newsletter arrived in my inbox I was so happy to see this month’s designers are Camilla Engman and Elisabeth Dunker, working together as Studio Violet!

My favorite is this poster titled “Friends of Violet”.

Some current faves from Orla Kiely’s fall line.

My terrifically talented friend Alyssa Ettinger makes gorgeous ceramics.  Sure, we’re friends, but I’d think her work was beautiful even if we’d never met. Just this summer she’s expanded her line to include jewelry. She’s offering up pendants and earrings, casting molds from vintage beads and buttons. The results are spectacular. You can see more of her work right here.

I just love that little “Suggest Shops” tab in the favorites section of Etsy.

More often than not I’ll come across a shop and think to myself “how have I not seen your work before?”

Given that Etsy is so large I think that even if I spent a few hours every day browsing I’d still miss tons and tons of amazing artists! So I’ve decided I’m going to take time once a week to write about a new shop that I’ve stumbled upon from my Suggested Shops.  Hopefully it will help you to find some new favorites as well :)

The first shop I’m spotlighting is Wapa, the work of Ady Shapira in Israel. Really beautiful ceramics, including vases, candle holders and even some gorgeous pendants.  I’m especially fond of the porcelain baskets, seen in the first and last photos below.

Some beautiful prints by Danna Ray. Check out her shop Groundwork to see more.
