Etsy Finds: A Toast to Oktoberfest
"O'zapft is!" This is how the mayor opens the world's largest fair, Oktoberfest, every autumn in Munich. It translates in English to "It's tapped!", which means that it's time to start filling your stein with beer. On Etsy, it means it's time to celebrate all things German! For those of us not attending this year, join us in …
Etsy Finds Vintage: Into the Wild
I love the great outdoors. Journeying into the forest and setting up a cozy camp is a childhood memory that I relish. The fishing, the boating, finding treasures in the wilderness: who doesn't have a deep and abiding fondness for nature? In fact, I loved camping so much as a kid that I set up a little orange pup …

Trends: Tree Stumps & Toadstools
You've probably noticed this trend, unless you've been living under a rock! Etsy shoppers, it seems, would rather be living in woodland burrows or in cozy nests up in the trees. They'd have stumps to do their sitting on (tiny toadstools aka mushrooms, for fairy seats) and feathers in their hair. There's no saying …
