Nobody loves products more than Country Living markets editor Katie Woolsey — especially the quirky-meets-sophisticated variety that is characteristic of Etsy’s artisans! During her four years covering home design she’s always looked to this creative gang to help make her pages sing.

I’m always telling my friends and co-workers that I can’t wait to get a great apartment to myself so that I can fill it with my favorite finds from Etsy. Until then, take a look at the trend that I’m inspired by right now — country kitchen with a twist!
