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.

2/6/20: I am not shy about the fact that Beloved and our friends really love a cocktail. And one of the things about cocktailing that I most enjoy is the accessories. I am a huge fan of glasses – especially martini glasses – and if I had unlimited space, I would fill my kitchen with infinite varieties of the glamorous things. I’m particularly obsessed with vintage cocktail sets, especially in the mid-century modern style, which are my favorite go-to birthday or wedding gift. I did try to find some Etsy tragedies, but this week, most of what I found made me happy, so I just went with it. Lots to enjoy this week!

I so enjoyed this seller’s wonderfully witty description (“materials: regret, hangovers, car tows, open container laws.”), that I spent a happy hour poking around their shop! By OregonVintageReclaim
