Etsy Finds: Alchemy...!

Guess what's just around the corner? Old-school Etsy users will fondly remember the feature known as Alchemy, where shoppers can write up a listing for a custom order they're hankering for, and Etsy artists can bid on the project. Got ideas in your head you just haven't found using our tag/title search? Soon you'll be able to request anything you can think of on Etsy, and chances are, someone out there can make it happen. In honor of Alchemy's impending return, I made this list of customizable items on Etsy. A few shops I've showcased before, but the work is so good it's worth a second look. Hope you like!

Custom Stamped Sterling Silver Ring

Classic. I like this particular ring because the message is hidden on the inside, but chrisparry has a huge variety of customizable jewelry in his shop. I bought my husband one of his pieces for Valentine's Day; highly recommended! $49.99.

I have had such fun doing custom orders for people, but I'm so excited to getting just what I'm looking for in a new wallet/carry thing and maybe even *eep* shoes...
