this little cutie arrived yesterday in the mail from make pie not war 
and i absolutely couldn’t wait to post it!
being in and of the etsy world, i absolutely love coming across a niche store that has the perfect handle on their style and design.
alana from mpnw has a fun, edgy style that i just love.
her logo, and packaging made me smile too,
it truly goes a long way.
and it’s one of the reasons i love etsy so much.
items made by real people, touched with love.

here are some of my other favorites from her shop…

more about the designer…
Make Pie Not War started in 2007 when Alana Little 
just couldn’t handle the corporate circus any longer! 
Desiring to be free, she jumped out into a scary world and started MPNW! 
She knew that with her degrees in Accountancy and Fashion Design, 
she could do it, and do it great! 
She daily puts on her apron to make gorgeous jewels for the radical lady (and men too! ). She knows that her company is one of many, 
but she fights through the immersed industry with her classic yet funky jewelry 
that is all handmade by her personally. 
She pours her love into each piece and each customer that comes her way! 
She loves to hunt the world for her treasures she uses to complete the perfect piece. Vintage trinkets, precious metals and gems, random natural elements… 
It’s all fair game!
alana has included a special gift for you for stopping by.
