In the Spotlight: Plonka by Dalinda

I wanted to share this superb Etsy shop which is chockfull with fantastic needle craft, knit and crochet objects. Plonka by Dalinda provides all sorts of ingenious bits and bobs from bags, purses, clutches and zippies to adorable pixie hats, mittens, quirky toys and few surprises.

I bought Ludvig the 1st last August. I was impressed with the quality of the work and attention to detail that went into his creation. He was a gift though and I was absolutely crushed when I had to part with him.

Aside from everything being incredibly well made, Linda uses a fantastic range of fabrics in her work and the designs themselves are ingenious too.

I guess Plonka by Dalinda is just one of *those* stores that you find yourself always checking in on from time to time.

A few of my favorites…..

Etsy is THE venue for so many wonderful and talented people that standing out from the crowd can be an excruciatingly difficult task.

Entering the TimeMachine or Treasury is like getting on some type of cool crafty rollercoaster. You’re immediately slapped in the face with all this fantastic stuff and there really is just no end to the talent. The problem is that you start drooling over everything and can’t really focus on any one thing.

Basically, it takes something really special to draw you out of sensory overload, just stop you dead in your tracks and absorb your attention. Here are a few of the stores that get my undivided attention:
