New Feature - Daily Reviews of Etsy

Starting October 1, 2006, Craft Trend Watch will feature a daily review of some of our favorite Etsy Shops.

For those of you who don't know about Etsy, let me catch you up. Etsy is an on-line shopping venue that features only handcrafted merchandise, presented in shops which are operated by thousands of independent artists, crafters and designers. You can shop by category, color, materials or by individual shop. You can find everything from lipbalm to fine works of art. The pricing is more then reasonable and the service is first rate. You can leave feedback if it isn't.

One of my favorite features is Alchemy, where anyone can request a custom order (the sky is the limit) and any Etsy shop owner who feels they can handle the job can bid on it.

Most shop owners accept credit cards through PayPal and will ship internationally. Some accept checks.

Please bookmark this blog and check back often. You don't want to miss one day of the wonderful world of Etsy.
