As I covered back in April, 2026 has been the year of me scouring Etsy for fun. There’s something deeply satisfying about buying something from someone talented, and having unique pieces in my rotation that spark joy. Here are 20 of my latest Etsy obsessions, including some recent purchases that are too good to gatekeep.
Some rhinestone nameplates…
While these embossed nameplates can be used as place cards, I think they’d be cute to glue onto a greeting card or a journal for a friend. It’s a funky gift that’s under $10, and you can message the seller to personalize rhinestone colors, too.
A knotted wristlet…
This multipurpose wristlet has a carabiner on the end so you can secure your headphones, keys, or phone. Because the silhouette is so chunky, you’ll never lose the small essentials you reach for the most. Plus, you can pick from countless colors.
A tumbler with a pop of color…
These ceramic tumblers have a dimple for your thumb, making them easier to hold without a handle. I love the contrast between the natural clay hue and the bright dots. Use them for cold drinks, lattes, organizing trinkets, or as a small vase.
Some patchwork journal covers…
Ever since the Louise Carmen journal craze, journal covers are all the rage. If you don’t want to pay for international shipping, but still want something luxe, go for this patchwork hide style. They come in all kinds of sizes and colors, and they’re worth the investment because they’re refillable.
Some journal jewlery…
This might be the sweetest gift for all the hobby girls in your life. I recently discovered the concept of “journal jewels” on Pinterest, and ever since, I’ve been obsessed. You can customize the shape and the saying on the nameplate as a chic way to keep all your writing contained.
An on-trend photo frame…
Extreme matting is another design trend I’ve been into this year. This Ohio-based Etsy shop has these statement frames with corresponding fabric mattes. Just pick your image size and colorways. They’ll instantly elevate even the most basic photo.
A small lamp to make random nooks cozier…
A 3D-printed lamp made to look like a tulip? Count me in. While it’d be a whimsical touch to a desk or a bedside table, I actually think it’d look incredible on a kitchen counter.
A salt pig dedicated to Maldon loyalists…
This ceramic piece is shaped exactly like the brand’s iconic box, so you can decant and store your flakey salt and have it conveniently on hand for meal prep. It’d make for a solid white elephant gift, or a gift for all the foodies in your life.
A purse-sized pill organizer…
Etsy has some of the most genius life hacks I never would’ve thought of myself. This Altoid tin insert is one of them. All you have to do is pick your color and grab an Altoid case. This plastic insert will fit snugly inside so you can take meds, supplements, and more on the go. It’d be great for storing jewelry in a pinch, too.
A literary-inspired clutch…
Another reason I love to turn to Etsy? For designer dupes. I’d been eyeing Olympia Le Tan’s bookish clutches for a long time, but I couldn’t justify the expensive price on such a novelty piece. I found VRStorybook, a shop that makes similar versions, and it’s one of my favorite Etsy purchases to date. Not only was the seller so kind and easy to work with, but the piece is a cool sentimental ode to one of my favorite books.
A brooch-covered bag sitting in my cart…
I’ve been eyeing this shoulder bag for months, and now that it’s won an Etsy Design Award, I want it even more. It's a vintage bag that’s covered in vintage brooches, and it’s bound to be a statement piece that isn’t hard to style. The seller constantly has rotating styles and brooch assortments, so snag while you can.
A ceramic travel mug…
I’ve seen these ceramic tumblers with built-in sippers for the longest time, and I feel like the best place to grab a fun one is on Etsy. I love to make my matcha lattes at home, so I’m always looking for a vessel to take them on the go. This one is covered in a floral print and holds up to 16oz depending on your needs.
The ring I can’t stop talking about…
I’ve written about this signet ring already, and it’s hands down one of my favorite purchases of the year. It’s an enamel signet ring with a bunch of lucky symbols from my childhood that I bought for myself as a wedding gift. On it, I have a nod to a family nickname, my middle name, my lucky number, and more. The seller, Buket, was so kind and effortless to work with, and now I have a unique heirloom piece that’ll last for years to come.
A noncommittal notepad that’ll help tackle to-dos…
This personalized outline has slots for priorities, a spacious to-do list, tasks for the next day, and things you don’t want to forget. Customize it by adding your name. It’s slim enough to pack in a tote, but I’d buy two — one to keep at home and one for the office. I also love that it’s undated.
A custom return address stamp…
I didn’t realize how badly I needed one of these until I entered my bridal era. I’m in the season of writing tons of thank you notes, so I bought this heart-shaped return address stamp. While it might not seem like a need, it has cut back on spending lots of time writing out my address on the back of envelopes. Not to mention, I love that it adds a personal touch.
A compact mirror that looks way more expensive than it is…
These cloud-shaped mirrors are easy birthday gifts, stocking stuffers, bridesmaid gifts, you name it. Just select your shape and metal color, then add their name. When it comes to gifting, I love to go for an elevated version of an everyday essential they’ll actually reach for.
An updated take on a letter magnet…
I love a fridge magnet, and these polymer clay, handpainted letters are such a cool way to add a custom touch to your kitchen. Buy a couple for initials, or buy enough to spell out a full family name or enough for you and a roommate.
A sentimental way to wish someone good luck…
These four leaf clover cards have also been sitting in my Etsy cart for a while because they’re a distinct way to show someone you care. You can customize the actual message that will be printed on the card, so they’ll have a personal good luck token whether they’re starting a new job, making a cross-country move, or training for a marathon.
A flower-shaped scrunchie…
You can never go wrong with a cute, giant silk scrunchie. This handmade one comes in tons of bright colors. It’ll keep your hair up crease-free and you’ll never lose it in your bag thanks to its statement shape.
An unexpected accessory Skimm’rs can’t stop buying…
Ever since I wrote about this brooch in the spring, it’s become a bestseller amongst Skimm’rs. I have Colman Domingo to thank for my obsession with brooches. These birth flower ones are equal parts chic and stunning, and they’ll add some flair to blazers, sweaters, and coats.
