misosouper, a shopping blog

Last weekend was the Bazaar Bizarre craft fair in San Francisco. There was a ton of crafty goodness to browse, and I knocked a few more names off of my holiday gift-list. Mother-in-law? Check. Sister-in-law? Check. And for myself? Um, check, check, check. I couldn’t help it. The lovely up-cycled jewelry by Cara Lyndon was my downfall. Tell me you could resist this gold necklace with vintage brass lockets? I bet you can’t.

Ahoy, me hearties! How cute is this handmade felt beard? Perfect for a budding BlackBeard, or order it in brown for your little lumberjack.

For those of you looking to add a little literary flair to your living quarters, Anthropologie’s Stacked Paperback Wallpaper offers a quick fix. Added bonus: many of the well-worn titles are in French. Oh la la, aren’t you fancy?

I may not have an iPad (yet) but I’m already on the lookout for the perfect case. This retro TV box struck my fancy, but it’s only a one-off and not so practical for on-the-go. So for now I’m leaning towards this handmade leather DoDo Case portfolio. Instant transformation from geek to sleek!

Summer always makes me think of road trips, and road trips always make me think of mix tapes, and then I get all nostalgic for the old days but then I see things like this handmade Cassette Pouch on the internet and I feel much better.
