If you can't find IT here, part XIV

Are you ready for another great edition of “If you can’t find it here”?  I'm here to help you find that perfect gift for a friend, a neighbor, that very special person in your life or yourself.

Every day there’s a special occasion in someone’s life.  Well I can pretty much guarantee you that perfect gift, “IT” can be found quicker than you ever imagined possible! 

No time to shop?  Let me help.  You can tell me what you are interested in and I will shop for you!  Contact me via the comment section below or e-mail me by clicking here.

I would like to introduce some great artisans’ who have been nice enough to include my All Things Wood shop in their circle on Etsy making it easy for me to grab their shop link, I randomly pop in on their shops, see what they have to offer and let you know what I find.  I will include their shop link so you can stop by for some window shopping.  I will point out a few items that I find, tell you if they have any specials going on and what kind of customer reviews they receive via their feedback area.

The creations these Artisans’ have to offer are unique, more often than not, one of a kind and handmade by the artist who is also the shop owner.  There are also collectors and sellers of Vintage goods, and antiques and there are supply shops that provide everything you can imagine.

Our folks are located worldwide and these shops are always open so feel free to stop by any time of the day or night. You will enjoy a most wonderful shopping experience with folks who care and give you excellent and personal customer service.  Unlike some of the mall shops and big named stores who have sales clerks who either act as if we aren't there or treat us like we owe them something; these shop owners take pride in their art and they do care about you.

Dirty Girl Creation, shop owner Deanna says that she was disappointed that she couldn’t find good quality material or crystals when she was planning her wedding.  She said that the material she ordered was either too thin and flimsy
or lost its shape or shrunk once washed and that the crystals lacked the sparkle she was looking for.  So with an incredible husband who supports her every step of the way, she set off on her own in search of great fabrics and the best line
of crystals she could find. What happened is that she became passionate about creating beautiful quality lingerie and apparel.  Deanna likes making women feel beautiful and sexy with her embellished wedding pantyWedding tanks and Wedding tank dresses, so cute and the embellishments can be so suggestive and sexy.  You’ve got to see them to appreciate them and you will love them!

Let’s show her some love as she has just opened her shop recently and is still waiting to get a few sales under her belt.  Deanna is offering readers a 10% discount off your total purchase, use coupon code MayWedding at checkout.

*Now (in my opinion) we have a great pairing with my next shop review which is with Your Jaded Designs*  Here’s a great combination of fashion accessories that would go well with something from “Dirty Girl Creations”.

Your Jaded Designs”, shop owner Lizeth says “I’m a mother of three who has given up a very fruitful career in the corporate world to dedicate myself to my passion for design and my love for my family. I live in glamorous LAS VEGAS, NEVADA and I wouldn't give up these lights for anything in the world :-) I am proud to be a handmade geek!”  She is currently working on a couple of projects dedicated to non-profit organizations; designing a pink ribbon headband for breast cancer awareness and a special headband for Locks of Love for children who suffer from long-term medical hair loss.  Let’s look at what this shop has going on.
Wow what a lovely assortment of peacock feathered head accessories, so colorful and alluring.  And va-va-va-voom, check out that Exotic costume Bottom!  Referred to as her costume of peacock feathers that are assembled by hand, it can be made as a belt or a skirt but it is ready for some hip action and a sassy dancing.  And don’t forget to add that sizzling pair of heels to your order to complete that well layered look.   You’ll be the feathered bell of the Mardi Gras.  Coupled with that sexy lingerie from Dirty Girl Creations, umm, umm how fine you'll look, and feel!

Again, this is a new shop that has just recently opened and we need to show her some love and hopefully give her her first sale.  Lizeth is offering a 35% discount off your entire order (excluding shipping) if you use coupon code EXM01 at checkout.

Now to gear down from all the sexy, steamy apparel, we have Mr. Wooly’s Dryer Balls, rounding out today’s shop reviews.  All that sexy, steamy apparel will have to be washed so why not toss  a few of Mr. Wooly’s balls into the dryer to fluff up those thong’s and tee’s.

Dryer Balls is owned and operated by ‘Mr. Wooly’ who makes EcoFriendly 100% Wool Dryer Balls.  He uses imported wool from a sheep and Alpaca farm in New Zealand (that's pretty cool).  Quality materials, quality product.

Mr. Wooly says “Wool dryer balls are an inexpensive and a reusable green alternative to dryer sheets. Wool absorbs up to 35% of its own weight of water, which reduces drying time to protect delicate clothing and save on energy bills.
Adding several balls to the dryer will separate clothing, which also reduces drying time and decreases static. As the balls rub up against items in the dryer, gentle friction helps to soften fabric fibers and fluff large items like comforters, eliminating the need for chemical-laden dryer sheets and fabric softeners.”  I found that Mr. Wooly’s customer reviews were those of happy customers, saying that the dryer balls were great, larger than they thought and that they did take care of the static.  So, all is good in the world of dryer balls.  Use coupon code EXAMINER15 (case sensitive) at the checkout for a 15% discount from Mr. Wooly’s shop.
