The holiday shopping season is upon us, and with that in mind, you may have noticed the Etsy Gift Guides just got a makeover!  Finding great gift ideas this season just got that much easier, so dive in and take a peek at what we've done!

• We've revamped the face page of the Gift Guide directory with a new design, larger thumbnails, and a more user-friendly, eye catching layout. 
• Once inside a Guide, you'll notice that navigation is at the top and bottom of each Guide for easy browsing. 
• We've launched a new Holidays section which now includes Gift Guides by Price. So let your friends and family know, this is a great tool for folks shopping within a specific budget this season (as many of us are!).
• You may also notice our new "The Hot List" section of the guides where we will be highlighting several of the trends we are noticing crop up on Etsy.  These guides will have less content and will be updated and changed more frequently. 
• We'll be launching a special guide in this section in the coming weeks where we will highlight items that have made it to the front page but haven't sold, so keep your eyes out for that one...we think it'll be a popular one to watch!

With these recent changes, you'll be seeing fresher and more frequent content added to each of the Gift Guides. If you're feeling proactive about holiday gift-giving, email this post to friends and family. Urge them to do the right thing and support indie crafters and artists this holiday season!
