Etsyholic

I was asked recently about my love for Etsy.
I have to say that if you asked me a year or so ago, I would have had no idea what Etsy was.  A dessert topping maybe?  Skin fungus?
But, alas, I discovered Etsy.  I am a happier person for my discovery and my wallet has lost weight.


These calling cards were just one of my recent purchases.  This year I purchased 5 or so Christmas gifts from different areas of the site.







And I recently purchased this Alice in Wonderland light switch plate.  I just love the original artwork from the book.











And I got this tooth fairy pillow for the Caterpillar.














(No, Abby is not the Caterpillar's name, this was the photo on the seller's page).


This necklace will go to someone special for Christmas.  (Again, not the names I used, but the sample on the site.)






The creator of this necklace made it the night I ordered it and shipped it the next day. (THE NEXT DAY!!!)  This is why I love Etsy.  It's people selling to people.  Not corporate robots shipping packages.  


This stamp was a birthday gift for my friend Mel, who loves snails.






I really cannot say enough positive things about my experiences on Etsy.  I find that the products are affordable, of good quality, and always above and beyond what I expect.  
If you haven't checked it out, I highly recommend it.
