Tree Finds - Back to School Edition



It may still be warm, but you can sense it. The days are getting shorter, there is a faint hint of fall in the air, and you are starting to think about pumpkin pie. Well, maybe just I am thinking about pumpkin pie. Mmmmmm, pumpkin pie. But I digress, it is back to school time again and Etsyland is full of creative, eco-friendly, and unique items to outfit students of all ages.


I don’t own an iPad, but this fun retro-inspired sleeve by ClassicbyNature makes me wish that I did:

Call me sentimental, but to me there is something special about the substantial feel of an old metal lunchbox. Plastic just doesn’t compare. AloofNewfWhimsy found a beautiful example of an old beauty: www.etsy.com/listing/92105649/vintage-american-thermos-scottish-plaid

We can’t forget back to school fashion. Who doesn’t need a ninja shirt? Made from sustainable reclaimed materials, TNTees shows us the fun side of the ninja: www.etsy.com/listing/103815365/cij-boys-tshirt-ninja-applique-baby-12m

These beautiful and useful items should help make the transition back to school just a little easier. Now, where is that pumpkin pie?
