Can someone tell me about Etsy?

I have seen a few of you ladies posting about Etsy (I think that is the name of it?)  What deals did you find?  Or what can I find on the site?

    I bought a lot of stuff for my wedding on Etsy, and I plan on buying some maternity shirts I saw, and probably some lettering for over the crib. You can find tons of things, anything creative really. Anything in particular you're looking for?

    It's basically a crafter's site-where you can sell what you make. I haven't put anything up there yet (I can't let my stuff go) but I will eventually! If you want to find things that are customized for your child, that's probably a good place to go! Enjoy!

    I love the jewelry I find on there...especially from a buyer named Acornbeach.

    You can find just about anything handmade, vintage, or products to make things on etsy. Its kind of like eBay for stuff you make. I sell stuff on there, a link is on my blog.

    The fun part is how you can search....you can search by color...by geographic location, by lots of things...its fun and a big time waster.

    You can also request custom items from sellers. If you see something they like in their shop but you want it a little different or a different color, you go to the "Alchemy" section of etsy and make your request to that person...and they submit a bid for how much they'd charge you and then go from there.

    Its pretty easy. HTH!

    Etsy.com is an online marketplace for artists and craftspeople to sell their work to a global audience. Nearly everything imaginable can be found there, from jewelry and clothes, to housewares and baked goods.

    I've bought a wide range of items - organic seeds, laptop decals, jewelry, fabric, art prints, hair bows, soap, pottery.. the list goes on! I love that the things that I buy are unique and made with love by people who have a passion for what they do (a stark contrast to what we buy in most retail stores). I sell pottery (haven't been very productive since my BFP) and it has allowed me to keep doing something I love that would otherwise be too expensive to do.

    I got some really cute necklaces from Etsy that were made on old scrabble tiles.  They are super cute and unique!  You should check it out!
