Eleven from Stillwater Who Sell Items on Etsy

The website offers arts, crafts, gifts and more from independent vendors.

Tired of wrapping the same electronics and "toys of the year" that your loved ones have gotten as gifts from everyone else? An alternative for those who shop online is to visit Etsy.com. At Etsy, you can browse handmade or vintage items, as well as art and craft supplies. These items cover a wide range, including art, photography, clothing, jewelry, food, beauty products, quilts, knick-knacks and more. 

Stillwater is home to at least 10 of Esty.com's online vendors and the Stillwater Lift Bridge is the inspiration for at least four items for sale on Etsy.
