Is your booze vegan?

Oct 11th, 2011

So the vegan toe guards I ordered..

The seller was out of the faux leather she used and her supplier was out as well. So she gave me an option to either pick white or red instead of black or get my deposit back.. so I got my deposit back and now I’m waiting for her to get something from which to make vegan toe guards! It’s a little annoying I have to wait even longer, since my skates are already getting scuffed up, but oh well, can’t help it.

Got any money to spare?

HELP ME start up my veganlove etsy collection! click here! HELP ME HELP ANIMALS!

Hi everyone! 
My name is Crystal Marie and I am a vegan, animal lover extraordinaire with a passion for animal rights! I have had the idea in my head for a while now about starting up my own online store, as a place I can sell my own handmade vegan items/art!
The reason I want to start up a store is because I want to be able to fund my own home run ‘animal sanctuary’ type thing. I want to be able to provide and care for unwanted/older animals (cats, dogs, rodents). It breaks my heart that there are animals out there that may never find a happy forever home. This is especially true for older animals! I see many ads from people trying to find homes for their older animals. It’s so sad! 

I just want to be able to give a happy and loving forever home to those who need it! $1500 to start up a online store for my items seems like a lot of money (and it is!) but I want to be able to have enough so I don’t have to worry about unseen costs (for instance: if shipping is more than calculated etc). I believe my store will be able to fund this ultimate dream of mine!

Please know that the proceeds from this project are going DIRECTLY to my online store and materials needed to make it a success. 

Thank you for reading! <3

This seems like an awesome idea, so I’m spreading the word!

We went to a place called Pizza Heaven today. They have regular and vegan and gluten free pizzas. I haven’t had cheese pizza in a long while because I just haven’t had many good experiences with vegan cheese. But this.. this was delicious.

This vegan raw strawberry cheesecake looks so amazing I just have to make it. It’s definitely not good for you but oh my gosh, I’m already drooling here.

These lipsticks are from Lime Crime! Apparently after I posted this and it started getting reblogged, people removed the credit. How sad.
