Etsy Find: Jane Heller Photography
I adore the quiet, contemplative quality of these images from Montreal-based photographer and Etsy seller Jane Heller. In her work, Heller focuses on "the nuances of everyday life, the small details that go unnoticed, light and shadow, humor and sadness, and everything in between." Above: I Love Thread
A Day at the Museum
Lingerie on the Line
Family Threads II
Free as a Bird
Blue Wedgwood
Sweet Dreams
Thread
Each signed and dated, archival-quality 8-by-12-inch print is $35. Other sizes are available on request. See all of Heller's Etsy offerings right here -- and check out more of her work here.

Etsy Find: Tiny Sparks Design

Solid Birch Coat Rack, $50
Oak Keyholder With Skeleton Keys, $35
Bird and Trees on Figured Birch, $45
Rain Clouds on Elm, $45
Tree Rings on Oak, $45
Three Stitched Leaves on Birch, $35

Budget constraints have us sticking pretty close to home this summer, but looking at Oakland photographer and Etsy seller Jennifer Zahigian's quietly nostalgic images is like taking an instant mental roadtrip through the backroads and forgotten corners of America.

Other current faves:
Pot Pie Shop, $40
French, $35
California Soda, $35
Wagon Wheel Bowling, $25
Ranch Milk, $35
Pretty, Any Way You Spell It, $35
Each signed and numbered archival print comes in a limited edition of 50 and many are available with a choice of mat sizes for easy framing.
Shoe Shop comes in a limited edition of 15 and is framed at 16 by 20 inches for $240 or matted and unframed in the same size for $180.
