Personalized Etsy Gifts & Handmade Wonder will get your wheels turning as you consider special somethings for a special someone on your list. Etsy features work from some of the most amazing artists and creators around, and I have learned to snap things up quickly if I fall in love with an item. Why? Because these are real makers with real lives, so since life happens, vacation happens, and change happens, what is available just now may never come again.

Imagine what those necklaces designed from real kids’ art will mean to the recipient and the artist decades from now! And what child’s eyes would not light up at the sight of their name in bold colors, ready to color? The trail signs? Get creative with the naming. Lots of folks name their home or cabin, and lots of us have a favorite home away from home or dream location. Mine is Oahu’s North Shore.
