etsy shops i love pt i

"a little comforting maybe, like somebody's protectively holding onto you." also as a ring!

i thought i would start a new series of shops that i love on etsy! the first shop is datter industries, by the lovely kaye blegvad. every item is handmade in her new home of london, england. as her shop says, datter is the danish word for 'daughter'. it's part 'data', part 'matter'. kaye is also an illustrator (and has a separate account with illustrations available), and tends to make pieces based on stories she creates through a drawing-like process. her drawings and jewelry have the same themes: ritual, the occult, war, weaponry, animals, and talismans.

an eye to watch over you. i have this ring, also available in silver, and i really love it. i get compliments on it daily!
kaye puts effort and care into every item she makes, shipping quickly and making sure your goodie arrives unharmed by sometimes un-careful postal workers. i love the little details and how delicate but sturdy everything is. it's safe to say that i want everything in this shop, and my poor bank account may suffer for it!
