Re: Ableyshandmadegifts Items From England on Etsy

@wildcat fan Just looked at the doxie tote I think you mean (there was more than one fabric tote in doxie). If it's the colorful one with a different color in the lining (kind of aqua outside and mustard color inside with only 1 left in size large but you said smaller size) it is very cute. It also looks floppy which isn't as bad as with the larger ones.

Thanks for sharing that @Pearlee .  I saw a couple of doxie items.  I was referring to the small tote in my previous post.  My sister has two doxies and I was thinking about ordering for her.  She loves anything doxie and these are cute and unique.  They also look to be well made.

@wildcat fan. The reviews are saying the items are very well made. 🙂

By the way, when I ordered my item from England it was around $30 and I did not pay extra for insurance and tracking and I had no problem at all. It was Beatles-related, not surprisingly. 😂

I'm a big Etsy shopper and Abley's is one of my favorite shops!

 

Her tote bags are really well done.  I've ordered many- for myself and for gifts.

 

After reading the comments here, I went and looked at her items and did notice that a few of them show they won't ship here.  I'm surprised by that.  Everything I've ordered from her has shipped here.  If you're interested in something, you might message her and ask.

 

Another great shop, much smaller selection right now (hopefully she's going to restock) is raspberrypebbleshop2.  She is in Australia.  She also has great bags and they get here, from Australia, very quickly.

@gidgetgh Wow! What are the odds that of all the thousands of shops on Etsy I posted about one and you've shopped there before? Kind of freaky! I'm happy you are pleased with the merchandise. I'm sure one day I'll be placing an order there too.

@Pearlee - I was so surprised when I saw the title of your thread. 

Yeah, she has great bags, as does the other shop I mentioned. I was on Etsy one day and searched for handmade tote bags and her shop popped up.  Her bags are really well done and they're very pretty. I'm actually waiting for an order to come from her now.

@gidgetgh  thanks!

 

i wasnt even going to look because i was afraid that i would love something and then be upset because i could not actually order it. will take a look now. Smiley Wink

 

i can put in my zip code on the item page and it tells me how much they charge to ship to me. no need to even contact the seller.
