My Etsy Shop

grey cashmere and lambswool snood by Heather FinnI love trawling through all the beautiful hand made pieces on Etsy. I’ve been meaning to set up my own shop there too for such a long time — I finally have, and I’m very excited about it. This simple, pretty and affordable grey lacy snood is a good example of what you’ll find there — it has just gone up on the Etsy shop for only €40!
