Make Pie Not War: My Favorite Etsy Shop

I recently just discovered Etsy. I can't believe I didn't know about it for so long. Or, actually, I'd heard about it, I'd browsed it, but I didn't actually buy anything until fairly recently.

I forget how I stumbled across the Etsy shop Make Pie Not War... but I am so glad I did! I think her designs are just absolutely gorgeous! I seriously want so many of them, its hard not to buy everything.








Little Pillows of Goodness, $68
A Little Gaudy and a Little Dainty, $52
All Things Fabulous from Old, $43
Black Lotus Baubles, $29 *I have these in turquoise
Sweet Crystal Heaven, $60
Athena is Missing a Bangle, $54
Sparrow on my Wrist, $29

These are just a few of her many gorgeous designs! I'm hesitant to share because I don't want to miss out on things I want... but I believe in sharing pretty things! (And how cute are the names she comes up with for her pretty pieces?)

Check out Make Pie Not War here.

What are your favorite Etsy shops? (If you are brave enough to share!)

  1. Funny you ask that...I was just browsing Etsy (as usual).
    I have been in love with Untamed Menagerie for so long. I have many of their pieces and I love how unique they are.

  8. Hi! New to your blog! Love the concept and now following! Etsy is incredible but all too time consuming in general. Just like Youtube - I get sucked in for hours and hours! Too many faves I've hearted.

  10. I'm like you and discovered Etsy not too long ago. I just bought a gorgeous necklace there. Can't wait to show and tell ;)

    Good luck on the move, sweetie! Are you excited? Nervous? How long will you live in China?
    You're going to have an amazing time for sure! I love living in other countries - all though it can be a bit frustrating some times with a language you don't understand and a culture that is not familiar (yet!). But I would move around in a minute again! :)

  13. I love Etsy and I think I have tons of favorites already.

    This is the first time I've read about this Etsy shop... the items are so pretty. I love the white dress and the sparrow bracelet... so dainty!

  14. Hey Michelle! I am really, really excited! I mean, a little bit nervous too but right now, mostly excited. We will only live in China for just over a year. I'm so lucky that I speak Chinese, I think it would be really hard without that, especially in a country like China. Thanks for asking :) All of our stuff is packed up and gone, now we just have a big road trip to start! I think living in another country is amazing! I wish Americans were more like Europeans in that way, especially with learning languages.

    Thanks for the comments, ladies!

    I buy tons of personalized stationery on etsy! My husband also bought me a vintage necklace for Christmas on there. I love it, and I love knowing I'm supporting small businesses.

    I try to wear funky/chunky jewelry but it's not me. I love the delicate stuff.

    So pretty!
