Shop Local Etsy on Cyber Monday

Brooklyn is overflowing with creative shopping options, so ditch the big box stores and see what some of our neighborhood artisans have on tap this holiday season.

Not sure where to start? Etsy is a great way to find unique gifts and if you click “shop local” on the site’s sidebar you can narrow your search to Brooklyn sellers. We were hoping there would be an option for even more local options, but … maybe one day. In the meantime – if you are a South Slope artist with an Etsy store, we’d like to hear from you so we can put together a post on truly local Etsy shopping options! Let us know in the comments or send a link to your Etsy/website to editor@bklyner.com.

For now, here are a few of our favorites:

We loved the simple and earthy design of this pyrite necklace from acommonthread.

Go against the grain and give a paper portrait by AnnieSklaver instead of a photograph.

My little nerd heart completely skipped a beat after stumbling across this Doctor Who pendant from lovespelljewels.

We’ll continue to feature local talent throughout the holiday season, so stay tuned!
