friday favorites – treat yourself on the cheap!

Must. have. these.

Tess (originally from Sweden, now in Philadelphia) from Nova Designs says that these remind her a the bean sprouts her mother made her eat as a child. I love me some bean sprouts – that and sushi were the foods I missed while I was pregnant. These earrings would make fabulously unique everyday pieces. They are also available in a black finish. You can pick them up for only $15!

Kim (in Pittsburgh), from Sunstone Soap, will be hosting a giveaway in a few weeks but I couldn’t wait to tell you about this yummy soap! Pictured above is the Honey & Cinnamon flavor. The scent is earthy without being “crunchy” and it works up a lovely lather. With ingredients like oatmeal, milk, and honey, it’s good for your soul, your body, and the Earth! Kim’s soap is never tested on animals and do not contain chemicals or animal fats. At only $4.75 per bar, you can treat yourself to 3 for less than $15!

Noelle (in Philadelphia) from Xenotees is currently featuring select t-shirts – like the one above – for only $15!

This is one of Xenotees’ signature tees. It features the collective names of animals – as in, “gaggle of geese” but also, “‘unkindness of ravens’, a ‘smack of jellyfish’, [and] a ‘business of ferrets.’”
