I have always loved Etsy but have come to love it even more the past few months. I LOVE art (what art historian doesn’t) and I find it difficult to purchase works that I like and can afford.
Usually, I end up painting some form of a piece I adore with my choice of medium and minor alterations and it turns out, um, disappointing. It’s always because I fall in love with a specific piece and want it and I will jump and shout till it is framed and placed on my wall where everyone can marvel at it. I forced my father to get me a Jackie O print for Christmas this year. He fought me on the size but there it was wrapped underneath the Christmas tree. (Side note: I have an obsession with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, just so you know for future reference)
Ok, back to Etsy. You can find great prints of originals that are very inexpensive and look great. I have found birthday gifts, decorating bits and jewelry and clothing on that wonderful, God sent site. Here are a few things I’ve purchased or love:
There are some of the coolest paper products whether your looking for calendars, notecards, stationary or letters...
I found this artist's prints and thought they were absolutely adorable! I think they would be really sweet in one of my baby cousin's room...
The clothes are always original and you can find some really sweet and original vintage clothing...
