Etsy Day

A bunch of Etsy sellers have gotten together to declare today Etsy Day. A day for sellers to try to get people aware of what Etsy is. I'm sure most people who read this blog are probably already familiar with what a great place Etsy is to find handmade & vintage items. If you haven't visited Etsy, go, have a look around I'm sure you'll be surprised by all the beautiful & unusual things you find & want. In the meantime I thought I'd share some of my favorite sellers with you.

We've been in our house for just over a year but we've finally started looking for & buying art for the walls. Other than photos that either we or friends have taken, most of the art we've bought has been from Etsy sellers.
My first addiction was with Badbird - Andrea Zulli

These are two of her prints we have around the house. (Space Cadet Timmy is perfect in Matt's office.) I also have a wonderful grumpy gnome in my craft space.

She also sells great embroidery patterns & gives a free one away once a month on her blog.

We discovered local Twin Cities area seller Studio Mela at a local craft fair, Craft-a-rama & bought a print for our bedroom. I recently bought this print from her for the living room.

Last year at Maker Faire in Austin we discovered the photography of e.soule. We had to stop ourselves from buying more than three of her prints, they are just so much fun!

How perfect are those sheep with yarn for a knitters craft room!

Someone I recently discovered was Yellow Monday from Australia. I love her sense of whimsy.

I couldn't resist buying Three Hares from her just to celebrate all the bunnies we have in our yard.
Our tastes might not be the same as yours but the wonderful thing about browsing Etsy is there really does seem to be something for everyone.
