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.
*This is the actual sofa my parents had. Well, have. It’s still ugging up my dad’s apartment. There’s a slipcover (another aversion of mine), but I can still feel it under there, stinking up the joint

Kind of a fantastic assemblage, if that’s your thing. Ashtray byModSquadPickingSkeet earrings? Fine, but don’t come crying to me when some dummy shoots your head off…Obviously, when I’m complaining about orange, I don’t mean Hermès orange. Hideous. On the bright side, I’d probably lose weight because I wouldn’t want those things anywhere near my mouth…I can admire the beauty of carnelian, even if it’s not my favorite color. By MoonLotusCrystals (now known as Vibrant Essences)I’d hide, too.I like the look of this hanging ashtray, but I know that back when I was a smoker, I would have knocked into it, spilling the contents, constantly. Cool, though! By MSGEngineeringI remember these at a friend’s house when I was a kid. “Donna, would you like something to drink?” “No, thanks, Mrs. C.. I’ll just drink from the bottle.”I admit it. This is gorgeous. By NameDesignStudioTo be fair, I’m not sure I’d like this in any color.I’m a sucker for plastic-free glitter, even when it’s orange! By MimaxxyshopI sometimes wonder whether things like this were made to prank the color blind or to torture the rest of us.This is actually making me a bit queasy. The pattern looks like vomit under a microscope.
