Colorful Fridays: Picclick’s Etsy & a few of my favorites

You know by now that shopping reused, handmade goods is better for the environment and for local businesses than buying something manufactured and distributed to a retail giant. So you’ve probably spent a fair amount of time browsing the online retailer Etsy, a place where you can buy and sell all things handmade (often likened to Ebay), or if you haven’t, you might now.

PicClick has made it easier to see all of Etsy’s goods on a front page. They sort the handmade items into thumbnail sized icons so you can see a visual list of items, and then click on them individually if you’re interested. Be forewarned: it’s addicting. Check it out here.

So for today’s colorful Friday series, I wanted to highlight a few of my favorite sellers / items that are colorful, handmade and beautiful!
