Wanderlustings Handmade Accessories (CLOSED)

Update: The winner is susan. Congratulations! You'll be hearing from Wanderlustings shortly.

I came across the new one woman business Wanderlustings on Etsy and completely fell in love. After about a minute on Caitlin's Etsy page and website, I knew I had to contact her for more information on her designs. I was very happy to discover Caitlin was eagerly as excited to accept my request to feature her on BIDER and tell all of our female readers (and their boyfriends) about Wanderlustings and Caitlin's unique handmade headbands, hair combs, necklaces, ruff collars, sashes and belts.

There is always the English major in me that wants to dress up like a character in a Victorian novel. Wanderlustings lets all of us girly girls indulge in our Wuthering Heights fantasies with her beautiful floral creations. I'll let Caitlin tell you about how Wanderlustings got started in her own words:

wanderlustings began on a blustery, autumn afternoon in 2009. yearning for lush, romantic, well-traveled accessories, caitlin peters conceived the brand right then and there! sometimes nostalgic. sometimes mysterious. many times sweet.

all of our artifacts are handmade, one by one, with love, care and attention to every single piece. many of the items include vintage or repurposed materials because we are considerate of our environment. our specialties include bridal accessories, performance costuming, custom orders and of course beautiful accessories for girls who just want to be exquisitely lovely and unique!

I get really excited when I come across an independently owned business that has a lot of potential. Going off what Angel said in her last post, I agree that more of us need to stop waiting around for things to get better and start using our creativity to be entrepreneurial and create our own path to success. Caitlin is doing just that as a talented designer and I really admire that. And her products just bring a smile to my face because they are so exquisite.

Caitlin and I want to give a lucky BIDER reader a $15 credit to shop at Wanderlustings!
