My Twilight on Etsy quest began when I ran across this sticker from ElectrikPinkPirate this afternoon:
It struck a chord with me. Bella’s love is based pretty much solely on Edward’s hotness, and Edward is a 100 year old being who is in love with a teenager. ‘Nuff said. In the last month I’ve read all four books (and the posting of the Midnight Sun draft on Stephenie Meyer’s website) twice, a fact that I am absolutely ashamed of even as I reach for the books again. Twilight is the definition of guilty pleasure. Even though I keep my love for Twilight hidden, I wanted to check out what other witty things Etsyites came up with to show their love. Frankly, a lot of it was tacky tween stuff (which is as to be expected, absolutely) but I did find a few things that any Twilight fan could wear that would only identify them to other fans (and a few other things I just can’t help but share!!).
This is too classy to be borne. Venbead has put together a gorgeous collage necklace here. And only a fan would get the reference. (You could also hide the tag behind everything else for daywear.)
This is adorable, and sooo Alice. Part of the problem I have with the movies is that the only character in the movie they got even close to how I envisioned him or her was Alice. Atwhim has pictured her perfectly, I think.
I am absolutely freaking out over this brooch by humblebea (and her whole store). I love the cloth, I love the use of Edward’s handwriting, I love the little blue button. I’m really a fan of the “be safe” items because they’re pretty multipurpose while still being Twilight-y.
This is either brilliant marketing or BibBon was creative with the Twilight inspiration. Wearing this, no one would suspect your die-hard Edward love but you. Mwahahahaha. (Also it looks really comfy.)
To thesorceress770 I have just one word: yum!
I can’t vouch for twilightlips‘ lipbutters, but the packaging had me at “Cullen.” This would be great for a party favor for a tween girl. (Or for your purse for that little pick-me-up.)
Simplybitten has a lot of Twilight-themed decals, but “Be Safe” stands out to me.
Bethtastic has more than one stand-out Twilight pendant (and a bunch of other awesome one, too!).
