Hootin Tootin' Fun Finds On Etsy

By Elizabeth C.

SUZE ORMAN IS ALWAYS GOING ON ABOUT PUTTING MONEY BEFORE THINGS, but I am a sucker for silly or pretty one-of-a-kind whimsy at any price.

And so I only wish that I had the $235 to blow on this fuzzy blue owl who was featured in
Stuffed magazine.

I don't know what I'd do with him other than stare at his fluffy blue fur and ponderous eyes while he collected dust. But he would be mine, all mine! And I'd be another $235 in the hole, crap.

Ditto for the owl wedding topper ($40), the owl change purse ($19.50), the owl belt buckle ($38), not to mention the dozens of other treasures I coveted after perusing 500 pages of owl stuff on Etsy! I must have been out of mind; but in my defense, there were another 800 pages I passed on.

If you are a spendthrift and have the need to buy pretty things, don't bother doing it anywhere else but on Etsy, one of the best designed sites on the web catering to crafty hipsters creating art or reviving old treasures.

So many beautiful things to buy. Sigh.

OMG, there's a "Stuffed" magazine? ::thud::

There are a lot of nice things on etsy. I recently had bough a scarf and some hair scrunchies from there.

There are a lot of things I would buy over there if I had the money.
