Etsom·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.) 3. An excuse for me to be an obnoxious, snarky New Yorker once per week.

After 2.5 years of permits and construction and angst, we are finally at the decorating stage of our new decks, so today’s Etsomnia™ is a pure joy for me!

What a great looking outdoor privacy screen! By MountainSnowArtBeautiful AND affordable! Unfortunately, we get so much wind, they would bash themselves to bits immediately, but in a better protected spot, they would be wonderful! By BottlesUncorkedI rarely use this color in my interior decor, but I love a pop of sunshiney yellow in the garden! By MyFairytaleDoorsThese vertical planters would look great on our new white fence! By TheGeekGardenDotComWhat a wonderful outdoor sculpture! By DustinMillerGalleryThese are the coolest garden border stakes I’ve ever seen! By ApocalypseFabYou, too, can have your very own garden Wilford Brimley! By TheTreeFacePeopleWaterproof Chinese lanterns. I had no idea such a thing existed! By HoiAnLanternWorkshopLook, the Partridge Family! Okay, fine. They’re quails. Still cute, though! By FoothillMetalArtAcrobat whirligig in custom colors. What a fun idea! The little ones would love it. By TheMACH1N3ShoppeI am obsessed with these stained glass garden stakes! By BelloGlassLoving these solar LED lights! By TouchOfECOI spend a lot of time around fairies, and you do NOT want to piss them off! By BigfootCreationsMN
All of them are cute and fun to look at. Over 50 years ago we had an Acrobat whirligig. It lasted a couple before it broke. I never did get around to trying to fix it. Enjoyed starting my day with all of them. Hal
Lots of lovely items this week. I really like that rainbow hued sculpture, the moon light, and the bottle wind chimes. I also really like that privacy screen. I have lived in several properties where that would have been immensely useful.
Congrats on your decor-ready deck! I have just begun to play with stained glass and made myself a garden stake – I, too, am smitten! There is a young woman artist outside Philly whose work you should see. Everything about her and her work is lovely: Sandy Webberking. http://sandrawebberking.com/ Hope you’ll have a look and like her work as much as I do. Thanks for this beauty-filled post.

I have so many windchimes in the trees in my backyard. They have made it through our Florida hurricanes so they are there to stay! I love all of this!

I love wind chimes in theory, but they do make an awful racket. We get a LOT of wind.
