I
‘ve become addicted to searching and shopping on Etsy these days. I have a tendency to root for the underdog—and small businesses get so easily swallowed up these days by the big box stores and Amazon that it’s nice to support them. And, of course, it’s a joy and a feat that people still make things with their own two hands!
