etsy is an online store/community where people all over the world gather to sell their handmade goodies. in here you can find stuff ranging from jewelry, paintings, and even clothes and luggage. as long as it's handmade, it's probably in etsy. even a geek like me can find something i would buy, such as these macbook sleeves.

you even have the option to search for where the stuff was made, so in my case i tried philippines, and i was surpised to see some stuff pop up. there weren't that many local etsy sellers but it was cool nonetheless.

another fun way to search for stuff is by color. sure it's gimmicky but still it might be useful if you want to buy a gift for someone who has an inclination for a particular color (ie your mom).

christmas is fast approaching, so if you're looking for something unique to give, and also feel like helping the little folk out, those people who worked hard through blood sweat and tears in order to make that one of a kind earring or purse, here's your chance.
