Wow a whole week since a post, I thought it was 2 days. This has been a crazy fast week, we also have an amazing friend visiting and I want to spend all my time with her.
But in my wrap life I have had some lows and some super high highs! I have been trying to come to grips with my new policy on one in one out. Especially when you have committed yourself to selling something and it doesn't sell.
I decided to sell my Oscha Strato Aequus size 2, I wasn't using it and it felt like the natural choice. I was in need of selling because I had my sights set high for my next purchase. So I listed it and it sat there, the trouble with listing a wooly in the summer. So the plan of attack was to use it a lot and well crap I fell in love again. It is such a great wrap! So for now it stays, even though there is one interested Mum.

After this I was feeling a little down about not being able to sell it, but I refocussed on what I really wanted in my collection. It came down to only having wraps I love, or buying wraps I think I would love. So there was only one option I had, because I love all my wraps, but still want to snag some amazing things. I decided I would sell nothing unless I actually buy one of the amazing things on my list. So there they sat my lovely wraps, not one leaving and they were getting lots of love.

My in search of list is very small, I have most things I ever desperately wanted. There are definitely beautiful things out there, but nothing that stops me in my tracks. That is except the elusive Uppymama, really a pipe dream that I don't invest too much sorrow in and the new kids on the block, Pavo Textiles, specifically Etini or whatever the seafoam one is in the teaser photo. And then what I think was true wrap love, Two Birds from Artipoppe (and ANYTHING from Artipoppe).
Three wraps, that isn't a lot, and fortunately they were almost impossible... until yesterday. When I happened to be in the right place at the right time, with the right windows open (and conveniently signed in to Etsy). Artipoppe released Argus Revo and I was able to snag a 2. I am living on a high. The Revo I snagged was 1 of 10 out there, so it only happened by sheer luck.
