Friday Five Hoo Is Cute On Etsy
January 30, 2009 – 10:08 pmI love owls. Now I know I’m not alone with that emotion – seems like half the world also adores these fine feathery friends. However I don’t mind sharing the love! Especially as all that admiration results in plenty of owly goodness to be had. Personally I have a preference for owl items from a few decades ago (can anyone tell me why owls were so popular in the 70’s?)…but that’s not to say I don’t love all the owl items being created daily. Etsy of course is filled with such great stuff so did a quick search and here are 5 that made me grin.
1. Owl Pendant by Westbryon – I love the style of this owl and the shape of the pendant. Totally cute and would look really, really nice around my neck I think. (The design is actually done by nikoart who does stamps with super adorable designs.)
2. Owl Hair Clips by FlyingButtons – I love the fabric used for these hair clips – so awesome! I personally don’t wear hair clips (I like them – just don’t think they look great on me) so someone else should snatch these up and adore them!
3. Owl Light Switch Cover by brightcolorart – Kick that plain ol’ white switch cover to the curb and add a punch of bright, owly fun to your wall instead! Love the bold colours, combo of patterns and those hilarious little feet!
4. Newton the Barn Owl Print by NatureMandalas – Last summer I did some freelance work for an organization that had some barn owls. A couple times I got to see them up close and they were so cute I died. I love all owls but there’s something about these guys with their heart-shaped white faces that makes my heart explode into shards of glee. This photo print captures their cuteness perfectly. NatureMandalas has lots o’ awesome photographs for sale so be sure to check out her shop.
5. Mister Owl Field Bag by theboldbanana – Can’t go wrong with a fun owl design screenprinted on a cotton field bag! I’m a big fan of 1-colour designs (not that you’d ever know it looking at Sick On Sin stuff) and love the way this one looks taking up the bulk of the flap. I actually have a bag similar style to this one and it’s great – smaller than a messanger yet can hold tons and tons of stuff.
**Shameless Sick On Sin Promo** – One day I’ll get an owl design on a shirt (crazy I haven’t yet, yes I know)…in the meantime there’s always this owl magnet to fill the void! (Owl designs also available in pin and pocket mirror formats.)

One important issue is that if you find yourself searching for a student loan you may find that you’ll need a cosigner. There are many circumstances where this is true because you might find that you do not employ a past credit history so the bank will require that you’ve someone cosign the credit for you. Great post.
