Year In Etsy 2010

'Tis the season for year-end retrospectives, so here is my first-annual Year In Etsy.  Although I still do most of my sales directly, I think Etsy is a fabulous way to reach new customers and find amazing, talented artists (and some wonderful vintage pieces as well).  This is not stuff you'll find at the mall.  Much of what I bought on Etsy I've given as a gift, and the recipients are always so impressed with the uniqueness of their present.  I think the fact that I've returned to a number of sellers is testament to the quality of character of my purchases. I encourage everyone to take advantage of the fantastic resource that is Etsy.

Here's what I bought this year:*
