I simply adore Etsy.com and all of its handmade goodness! This year, I have been deliberately Christmas shopping early this year to ensure I have plenty of creative, wonderful gifts made by its creative craftspeople. Not only do I enjoy buying handmade, unique gifts, I love knowing that I am supporting artists and creative-types from all over the globe. This year, I've decided to share some of my *favorite* finds.

I have bought many, many items from many different sellers on Etsy.com and have had very pleasant interactions, 100% satisfaction, and in many cases, I have worked directly with the creator to help influence the piece.

Watch out... my world's stage blog will be focused on fabulous gifts and creatives. Enjoy!
