For today's pleasure, check out Etsy.
Great for all things handmade and customized. This site runs the gamut from awesome accessories to kick ass kids gear. They are all about crafts and making stuff from hand, hence the "handmade."
So quit your Target & Walmart shopping and shop for something different - and something NOT made by tween Chinese girls who have to sleep on cots with their fingers bleeding at the end of their 18 hour shift.
I have had a long love affair with Etsy, and only one complaint: there is sooooo much stuff and not great searching capabilities built in. Enter Poppy Talk Handmade - a monthly online market that highlights emerging talent. Most, but not all, are Etsy folks, and I really like their picks so far. It's a nice way to check out a few dozen talents a month and see if someone is making something you must have. Without going insane trying to find the perfect gift in the bottomless pit of amazing that is the Etsy product search. poppytalkhandmade.com
