I love Etsy. And I love pop-up shops. So while I was on a three hour day-date with my better half last weekend in SoHo (best three hours EVER), I couldn’t have been more excited to stumble across the ETSY HOLIDAY SHOP!
For those of you unfamiliar with Etsy, it is a website that allows local artisans and merchants to sell handmade or vintage items to a broad community. It is a great one-stop shop for anything homemade, and it is a terrific place to find unique gifts. The holiday store does a great job of bringing that web concept to brick-and-mortar. As described on the site, “Imagine a magical place where you can shop directly from the collections of guest curators, meet the artists and collectors of the marketplace in person, learn to make something with your own two hands, and enlist the help of a whole squad of Etsy experts for your gift list. It’s Etsy in real life!” So true, and so magical. But unfortunately, the shop is closing this Saturday (December 8th)…. so go now!
I mean, honestly, this shop is HEAVENLY! And even if you don’t buy anything, you leave inspired by homemade goods and want to search and search on etsy.com for hours on end because everything is just so awesome. and homemade. and special. and fun. and different.
IF you don’t live in NYC, definitely check out their website. For more information, go here. Have a great weekend!
I am doing ALL my holiday shopping from Etsy. Fantastic site, and it’s great to support small businesses. Wish I lived in New York!
Etsy is the best!
I ran into it last weekend too! I really enjoyed the shop. I don’t understand why they are closing it so soon!
I KNOW!!! Wish it lasted the whole year!
Was there last weekend and loved it! You should note that you can’t actually buy anything here (it just guides you to the website). But it is definitely a great place to get inspiration!
