Behind The Scenes: Etsy Video Team



As we head into the weekend, I just wanted to share this little behind the scenes peek into the lives of some of the amazing people I get to work with at Etsy.

"Most people think of Etsy as a place where you can buy really cool stuff, but Etsy is really a community of extraordinary people." - Beth Levison

  3. This has me thinking about why I took to Etsy in the first place and how I've changed since.

    As an Appalachian woman, I've been versed in handmade. My family is a community of makers out of necessity and almost by default. Here, we assign people merit based on what they do with their hands. Mom is good with a needle and thread, Uncle can fix cars, Sister takes the family photos, and so it goes.

    But being an Etsian has matured my relationship with handmade to a more intimate level where now I can appreciate things made from human hands as works of art, as time put in, as care taken. More and more rarely, I am buying things from makers I do not know. I'm finding myself seeking out things made with intent, for my family, myself and my home.

    Thanks for the video share, Mary. :)
