Periodically bought handmade items from Etsy over last 7 years, including quilts, handmade small bench stools, fabric gift bags and Xmas decor.  My favorite items are 4 handcarved canes from Ukraine (even with the war they arrived within 6 weeks, beautifully made and packaged).

My sister ordered a item from Etsy and surprisingly it was from the Ukraine and the item arrived before an item she had ordered from QVC Woman LOL

I've gotten some really  beautiful earrings from Etsy.  I have certain vendors that's I follow and get a notice when they have new items. 

 

Often when I put an item in my inbasket or make it a favorite, the vendor will come back and give me a small discount on the item. 

 

And also purchased some dog toys!

Thanks everyone for the feedback.  Going on a cruise and have found some things on Etsy that would be great for it.  I'm definitely going to give it a try.

Etsy is my go to shop now for gifts or unique things. You can find so  many beautiful things and most are hand made. The sellers are small business owners and care about getting your business very much. I have bought many things and never once been disappointed or had a problem.

Had good luck ordering from Etsy. And the sellers are small business owners who are willing to communicate and solve any problem.
