I'm convinced that only those that have never worked retail shop Black Friday.  And I don't mean just stroll into the stores after waking up from your turkey induced coma.  I mean the crazies (yes, I'm talking to you), that wake up at 3 am and stand in line for "door busters" to get pajamas for $5.  No, thank you.  I worked those sales for years, back when they were still at the somewhat decent hour of 6 am, and still I will never look at Black Friday the same way again.  

I did spend my Black Friday browsing Etsy and Big Cartel though, in the comfort of my robe, and came across some really sweet and special gifts for family and friends.  Above are some of my finds.  I didn't purchase every single one, because we are scaling back this year, but the shops I found have the perfect gifts for certain loved ones that I'm bookmarking them for birthdays and such next year.  

Hurry, some are even having Cyber Monday sales today!

  1. That first picture... I must have that! It would be perfect sitting over my little desk, in my own little space.

    And I don't do Black Friday. My time & sleep are more important to me than saving a few dollars. I also don't like being in highly congested areas, it makes me an angry woman. And no one wants to see that.
