Page 1


Explore a one-of-a-kind world. Etsy is an online marketplace where makers can sell their creations to buyers across the globe. From handmade home decor to vintage jewelry and everything in-between, people come to Etsy to support small businesses and discover spectacularly special items perfect for everyone on their list.

Celebrate the holidays at The Etsy Market! Every year Etsy teams gather together to put on local events. Things couldn’t go as planned for 2020, but our sellers are good at getting creative. So they’ve organized this virtual market to help you find some truly great gifts. Explore their unique items, meet the makers, and most importantly, get into the holiday spirit.


“When you buy from a handmade Maker, you are buying more than just an object. You are buying hundreds of hours of failures and experimentation. You are buying days, weeks and months of frustrations and moments of pure joy. You aren't just buying a thing, you're buying a piece of a heart, a part of a soul and a moment in someone's life.�


Shop How did you come up with the name for your Etsy shop? "All the Pretties was dreamt up around the idea of the novel The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson, a childhood favourite of mine. I wanted a name that felt whimsical and nostalgic. Something that honoured the first pair of earrings I created, clay rose studs.

Shop Why did you start your Etsy shop? “I began Tall Pines while I was working full-time in architecture and getting frustrated, creatively. I wanted a place to indulge in my art without any ulterior motives beyond making objects and products that people could enjoy.

Over the past 7 years, my little business has evolved to teaching workshops, designing making functional objects, and creating original art. I get to exercise all of my creative muscles everyday and it has enriched my life immensely. “ What’s your favorite medium to work with? “I am really enjoying getting to know my laser printer.” Everyone has a go-to holiday drink.

Shop How did you come up with the name for your Etsy shop? “My first clay creations were pit fired at my teacher's forest cottage. It was an exciting event for me, as it was a group firing. There were many known and experienced potters. We had a pick-nick on the side and it was fun and awesome to listen them chatting and watching the WISP of smoke above our pit. I was repeating in my mind:"Just wisper on! wisper on!" I was afraid that it will stop burning as pit was covered with metal sheet and I had no idea how the fire can continue to burn with out any air! :) It did! :) Next year, when I opened my Etsy store, I remembered this exciting day and that's where the name of my shop came from. WisperOn it is!” Everyone has a go-to holiday drink. What’s yours? “Tomato Juice” Favorite Holiday Tradition? “New Year’s Eve get togethers.”
