Holiday Shopping - A Pooka's Opinion.

Here I am, a few days before this Holiday that you're supposed to stuff yourself silly with turkey and other yummy things.

I'm also more than half done with my Yule shopping. (*gasp!*)

I decided that this year I would do more shopping at small businesses than I have in years past. There are some things that you can't get from handmade shops though, and if that's the case I try to find small business shops that sell things like CDs and DVDs.

Some of my favorite shops are over on Etsy though.

Here's just a few!:

Glamourkin is a small shop that's run by an amazing author (Here's a link to Sarah's blog). The pieces that she sells are made of pure magic, and great gifts for anyone! (Yes, even boys.)

I'm a huge fan of handmade soaps too. I find that they don't dry out my skin nearly as much, and they smell soooo yummy!

If you have any anime fans on your list, this shop is pretty rockin for them! From actual costumes to cute scarves and jewelry, they're a pretty epic pair!

Looking for some awesome art? Shadowcat has an Etsy shop too! Here you can find great Steampunk pieces in Art Nouveau style.

I just got my brand new Kindle cover from this great shop. My darling Sven (pictured above) will be headed home to me very soon, I am so excited! She has some of Sven's family still for sale in her shop, go take a look!
