Have an Etsy-Christmas!

Christmas is NOT my favorite holiday. I despise the crowds and the commercialism. I do not enjoy running to 50 different stores to find those last 2 'perfect' gifts for the person who already has absolutely everything. Christmas music grates on my last nerve and I won't even mention what I'd like to do with those bells they ring in front of every store in town!

So, now that we have officially established that I am a scrooge we can get on to better things. Like making this holiday season happier, less stressful and lots of fun! I intend to do this by finding all my gifts on Etsy. Every single last one of them.

Now, my biggest problem will be deciding what NOT to buy! Take, for instance, this incredible Etsy store called Red Whisper Studio and they have such a great variety of things that I couldn't possibly choose just one item!

My obsession with dragonflies is what led me to them in the first place. I found this amazing dragonfly print, which led to some of their other dragonfly prints and now I find myself back in their shop, oohing and ahhing over all their handmade goodies! Jewelry and bags for my daughters (and me!), t-shirts, mirrors and cards for...whoever... They even have magnets with gorgeous prints on them! What fun stocking stuffers!

So, drop by and check them out for yourself. After all, who doesn't love a handmade gift under the tree!
