Just for fun: What's your favorite Etsy shop/find?
Inspired by @EmilyWan's comment in the "Best buy under $100" thread.
I've been eyeing a few rings from GOODAFTERNINE for a while! https://www.etsy.com/shop/GOODAFTERNINEHow about you, @isla?
omg these are so cute πβ€οΈ
Omg! That frog prince ring is everything.
Those rings are super-cute. I know someone who will love them. β€
Since you mentioned rings, I'll give a shoutout to both GeppettoJewelry and MoonkistDesigns. Both of which are shops from which I own rings myself. π
The enamel pieces are REALLY beautiful.
Last year I got some custom rag rugs (made with leftover fabric scraps) made by Unbelieving Weaving: she was really responsive and had lots of options for the bright colors I was looking for! She uses recycled materials for everything except blankets https://www.etsy.com/shop/unbelievingweaving (I left a review, so you can see a photo of my office there :D )
What a cool idea!
Love this!! I can browse Etsy forever and can't wait to hear of others' favourites!My favourite print to date is https://www.etsy.com/listing/173402030/some-things-take-time-old-gold-edition from a seller in Spain!
simple and very important to remember. I should probably have this hanging over my desk, haha.
@isla what a fun post! Downside is seeing all the cool suggestions will make me spend even more daydreaming time on Etsy haha.
Noooo, these are way too adorable! Is Etsyholic a thing? Because I must have an addiction...
I didn't even know these were things!
So cute!
This shop sells really cute masks!! and I love the story behind it. Loved seeing everyone's fave shop/find :) https://www.etsy.com/shop/HopeSewsStudio
Gifted a few friends the Negroni sweatshirt from this shop recently. They loved them! https://www.etsy.com/shop/YoureInGoodCo?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=970617593
I really admire Jon McCoy Pottery, but haven't purchased anything yet. https://www.etsy.com/shop/JohnMcCoyPottery
Is it weird that Iβve never purchased from Etsy? Heading back to look at the links posted now.
Not weird at all!
Thanks. Thereβs some pretty things there.
I have never purchased anything on Etsy ... :-) So follow up question for anyone - why do you love Etsy so much? :D
For me it's not really a "love" of the site itself more of a "If I need to get a gift for someone, it's more fun to get them something handmade than off of Amazon unless I know they want something specific."Etsy also has a vintage section, but I ignore it 99% of the time hahaha
I like supporting independent makers and small businesses and it's great for gifts that are unique, creative, and personal. I can buy gifts that show I really thought about and understood the recipient, plus there's often a neat story behind it (a local maker, a shop that gives back to a certain cause, the item is made from an interesting material, etc)
Oh I love that aesthetic.
Thank you! :)
We bought my engagement ring on Etsy! (I wanted an alt to diamond and ruby is my fiancΓ©'s birthstone).
It's beautiful!
Stunning. Claddaghs are really pretty. Love that you went away from the traditional and did what you liked.
Oooh ooh, for dog owners, I'm in *LOVE* with TreakTeak: https://www.etsy.com/listing/742465480/pet-treat-bag We've had ours since 2019 and it's by far our most used accessory (and most recommended to other dog guardians). I even bought it as a gift for 4 people (my sister and 3 friends), and they all use theirs every day, too! Attaching a photo of my pup with her (well-loved) treat bag on one of our walks π A bonus is one of our community members, @TalyMatiteyahu, is the creator behind this!
Yasss! Stop using plastic baggies to tote treats! Save the planet from plastic waste AND your hands from pocket crumbs! #winwin
I just bought myself a personalized book embosser! https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/743183447/from-the-library-of-embosser-custom?ref=yr_purchases 10/10 would recommend
This shop that sells DIY polymer clay earring kits. I saw so many neat polymer earring designs and wanted to try it myself. They turned out really cute!https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/DewDropInc
So excited to see this post because I came across this painted toilet shop the other day and was like damn, I really want to share this find with peoplehttps://www.etsy.com/shop/CasaCastilloArt
ngl that's pretty cool actually :D
Self-promo: https://my-store-11591823.creator-spring.com :P When I see a quote that I want to wear I go and make it here for myself and sometimes people buy them too :) If you like any of these or you have a quote I can make one for you guys too π This is a total hobby
