July is here! Now that summer has arrived, it's time to take advantage of the delectable weather's many benefits. Venture forth on that well-deserved vacation (road trip!), hit the beach with your nautical tote, have your first sophisticated dinner party, go antiquing at local flea markets and indulge in leisurely pursuits. Give the gift of gorgeous rubies to those lucky Cancers and Leos on your list and celebrate the marriages of friends and family by giving the gift of handmade. Etsy has you covered for the busy season ahead, and we hope this shopping guide keeps you organized and inspired.
Vacationing
Going on holiday should be an excursion to indulgence. Whether you're traveling to the beach, hiking in the mountains, or skiing in the Southern Hemisphere, Etsy's Travel Guide will help you check the necessities off your list and pack for your next adventure with style and sustainability in mind.

So many great picks! I love the banner and the vintage sunglasses!

JenGillette
No offense, Etsy, this is a beautiful selection and all, but how about some new picks? Several of these have been featured in the Storque over the last week, and several others are so common to Storque/Gift Guides that I can name the seller by looking at the picture. Maybe it's time to send out some scouts to dig up some lesser-seen treasures!
burntmill
love the camera! being a photography major might have something to do with that. Great Finds!

Although these are great picks, I agree with Jen. Let's see some new things!

Very nice picks! I am, however, inclined to agree with JenGillette and aBreathofFrenchair. I recognize quite a few of the sellers from other features. I know they have wonderful products and photos, but there are lesser-known artists who have just as wonderful items that could fit here, too.

A broad range and scope of goods! I must confess, however, that I much prefer the other seasons compared to summer. It's just too darn hot in the south. :o) I'm ready for fall!

Thanks for including my wedding invitations in this dizzying array of awesomeness!! It's a pleasure to be next to Sue of Giant Dwarf, and as a proud owner of TWO of her fascinators I can tell you that they are just as lovely in person. I wear mine almost every day :) Yay Etsy!

I love toybreaker's Clipper Ship tie! Purchased one for my husband and paired it with one of my "R" pirate themed tie tacks. I have a pendant available that can easily be made into a tie tack if you wish...

Your NAUTICAL selections made my heart skip a beat ... I'm inspired by anything coastal, preppy or related to New England. (As you can see from my shop!)
