i've been wanting to do a little "Etsy in our home" series for a while and with good reason :: everywhere i turn, there is Etsy. (and not in the creepy sort of way my one daughter thinks Santa is stalking her - this is a good everywhere-i-turn-Etsy-is-there thing.)
![name that Etsy [01]](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3272/3090150568_5534f1ed6f.jpg)
here, there, and in absolutely every room of our home there is an Etsy presence. i could go on and on about how Etsy has changed my life and effuse my deep love for how it has taken this great big world and brought us back (or perhaps ahead) to a small-townness, connecting consumers with artists/makers as they enter our virtual studios and storefronts... but instead of gushing all day, i thought we'd play a little game...
NAME THAT ETSY! have a close look at the triptych above and see if you can guess any of the three artists. a hint :: the center one is letterpress and the other two are prints. if you think you know, you could be a winner! win? well, since this first round of the game is art, the prize is this wheelthrown stoneware vase made by yours truly. 'tis the season of giving, after all.

interested? play along! post a comment with your best guess as to any of the three artists ' shops from which these three lovely pieces originated. just write the shop name, not the link - thanks! all commenters who name any one of the three correct artists will go into a hat for random draw - comments close monday night (8-dec) before i head to bed and COMMENTS CLOSED - thanks for playing! a winner will be announced tuesday. good luck! xoxo

please note, this is not a sponsored thing and everything featured has been purchased by me - not gifted or traded. i love learning about new-to-me Etsy shops via other people's blogs and am simply giving a tiny glimpse of some Etsy artists i love and gladly support because their work makes my family smile. and smiling is good. that's all. xoxo
