My Etsy Giveaway (I love this stuff!)

Etsy has been around for a few years now. It provides an international marketplace for handmade and vintage items, including allowing shoppers to search for local options.
Often we want to buy stuff that supports our local merchants, but we just don’t know how to find it. Etsy takes many types of artisans and creates a place where you can find good art wherever you are.
There’s something here for everyone. If you are a crafter yourself, check out the beautiful and quirky notions, and luscious and nubby and yummy yarns, and soft, touchable rovings, and other unique findings for crafters.
If you like the unusual or truly bizarre, follow Regretsy.com as they curate the wonderful strangeness of stuff that some people find valuable. Regretsy also has a regular feature on cheap reproduction goods that sneak their way onto Etsy periodically. Well worth a look.
If you are looking for clothes, or furniture, or linens, or jewelry, or dinnerware, or — you name it , Etsy has it. My Etsy giveaway is completely paid for by me and I don’t have an affiliate relationship with them. I just think they’re really awesome and you’re bound to find something you like.
So please, enter as many times as you like, spread the word and share the joy of my Etsy giveaway. Etsy has localized shops worldwide. Let me know if you have any problems using a US originating card elsewhere.
(p.s. If you win, I reserve the right to publish the name or handle you provided when you entered to comply with any applicable laws on my ‘list of winners’)
(p.p.s. Husband has suggested that we should give away our fifteen year old son Overthinker for our next offer. Thoughts?)
