Im looking for good unique hand made jewelry or crafts that I can resort for personalized gift giving. Can you guys hook me up?
 
This is not an Etsy shop, she used to have an shop there, but now sells exclusively at local shops and through her Facebook page - Karin Carlson Designs. She is the sister of a very dear friend of mine and her stuff is gorgeous in person! I would own it all if I could! You can see all her jewelry and things on the Photos page.
 
i just opened one, lol,what kinds of things do you have in mind? as n what style of jewelry and crafts, i have lots of friends on etsy now
 
Anything really, from jewelry to handmade signs or shirts... I’m tired of my sister always having the one up on me. Her gift giving is always spot on lol.
 
@sarahme85 Lol, I hear you on that - my sister is like that too!

I recently switched to supporting small business and have had a lot of good experiences with Etsy so far- here are some of my Faves for gift giving -

I have never done a sign (other than my own work) so I can't recommend anything for that - and
shirts are hard because it depends on what you like - etsy is all over on what there is to offer.

I have two shops - and I am all over on what I offer - partly because I get bored easily, partly because I have ADD and have to stay super busy doing all kinds of things, lol - I will include my links at the bottom.

These are shops I have either bought from, or know the people from working with them in groups on etsy (none are personal friends though - so I can't 100% vouch for them and it won't hurt my feelings if you don't like them) there are of course TONS more, lol - so many shops on there.

knit/crochet accessories:
This lady made me some awesome mittens this Christmas - I custom requested them

My friends own a woodworking shop:
http://www.etsy.com/wickedwoodcompany

There isn’t a huge variety in their shop at the moment but they are always open for custom orders. Basically they can make any wood project idea you have in mind!

They did a custom Star Wars sign as a Christmas gift for my daughter. We have also commissioned them to do a custom cutting board for an upcoming wedding we are attending.

I have seen many pieces in person and they are high quality and beautifully done.

I recommend checking out their Instagram @wickedwoodco because you can see some of the pieces that have done, including a reclaimed desk project they recently finished.
