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.
8/28/21: I recently found myself on the hunt for a miniature glass animal, and everything I found delighted me. I thought it would be fun to share! F.Y.I., in my book, there are no bad glass creatures. There are pieces that make me go ooooh! and pieces that make me go hahahahaha! Either way, I’m happy.

You know I like thesethere was a time when every roadside stand had a glass case
of these..I guess they went out of style..or maybe too many were broken.

We find them everywhere we travel, but to be fair, we are always hitting antiques stores and vintage shops.
