Store: Charlotte Amoureux (baiserdelamour) I like to make many items such as paper, bags, purses. All from different mediums. I've recently started making wallets out of fused plastic bags. I also make clutches out of vintage books. And, I reconstruct vintage clothing. I have so many ideas and get inspired to make things all the time. My husband and I own two adorable little dogs, they're a mix. The boy is named Han (after Han Solo, my husband is a Star Wars fan) and the girl is Leia (Han's love interest in the movie haha). We've only been married 4 months now and Han and Leia are our first animals together. I've previously owned a corgi, his name was Ein. He lives with my parents in California. We also have a bunny named Bailey. He's adorable but also shy. Charities of Choice: Save the Elephants, PAWS, Homeless Animals Rescues Team

The Lost Mitten Etsy Shop has been open since September 2006. Everything is lovingly handmade by one geeky girl, Lauren, and the designs are often a collaboration between her and her fiance, Paul. Lauren has loved animals for her entire life, and has been a vegetarian for all of her life (was raised as one by her family). She has had a variety of pets over her lifetime, including cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. Lauren worked in a pet food and supply shop for seven years throughout high school and university. While working at the pet food store, she became involved with assisting the Animal Welfare Association through adopting stray and abandoned cats to caring and loving homes.
