Et·som·ni·a (/etˈsämnēə/), noun, 1. a sleep disorder caused by obsessive Etsy browsing. 2. the surprising arrival of weird handmade merchandise ordered when one is only half conscious. (True story.)

During my weekly Etsy searches for things to amuse you (and me), I come across all manner of bizarre, custom-made, personalized items in the most unexpected places. Thanks to Etsy, you can now have clothing, artwork, furniture, toys, and even weapons made to your specifications. So this week, we are exploring the wacky world of Etsy custom listings.

As usual, links to the items for sale appear below each picture. For more Etsy fun, check out all my weekly Etsomnia™ posts. Follow me on Bloglovin!
