Etsy is a social commercial website that focuses on selling handmade or vintage items. It removes the store third-party and let's you buy directly from the artisans themselves. I love Etsy and have bought many an item from light fixtures to iPad cases to purses- all fantastic quality and craftsmanship.
I wanted to feature a few shops to aid your house designing aspirations. Because we both know you have them and who doesn't need a little help?
Furniture
1. Recycled Brooklyn - recycled furniture made to order in Brooklyn, NY. Wood, steel, coffee bags- everything is recycled. Helping the environment while making gorgeous furniture.

3. Georgianna Lane Photography - You know I love art. In addition to everything listed above, Etsy is also a wonderful place to buy affordable art to dress up your walls. Especially photography. I did a treasury list of various photographers I like on Etsy, but to focus one on here, I chose Georgianna Lane.
Yes, it is feminine, which is typically not my aesthetic. However, I can't stop staring at her work; especially, her flower series. Buy a massive print and hang it in your little girl's room. Or in your kitchen. It will brighten your day.

Great roundup! You picked some of my favorite shops. I'd also like to recommend the design pallet - they are based in Seattle and use reclaimed and salvaged lumber to make really gorgeous modern organic furniture. https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheDesignPallet Check it out!
