What is Etsy?

February 28, 2009/ Sara Janssen @ Nesting Gypsy

I talk a lot about Etsy on this blog...so I thought I would share this fun little video about how it all began.

A little rainbowfication for my books. Why doesn’t autocorrect recognize that as a legit word?!😂🌈✨💕 #cornersofmyhome #happy

This is the amazingly magical being that I get to hang out with every day❤️She is fearless. She is kind. She is SO smart & funny. And...she is 14! Happy birthday to my firstborn...Bella Grace.✨🌈🦄She’s currently measuring in at 2 inches taller than me☺️I’ve loved seeing her grow in so many ways this year. #motherhood

I snagged this succulent goodness last week and can’t wait to plant them when we get back from Cali!🌵🌈It’s getting HOT in Texas and these babies love the sunshine...just like me!☀️🦋✨#succulentlove #succulentsofinsta #plantsofinstagram #happyplants

They’re here! They’re here! 💕🌈🙌🏻@thecookandthecoach (aka my sister and fam) are parked at our house for several months! Can’t wait to show them all of our favorite Austin things and do life together. 🦋🦄👭Check out my story to watch the RV parking process.✨#instaneighbors #sisterfriends #mynephewiscuterthanyournephew #bigrig #rvlife #familiesontheroad

We’ve had a BLAST in Orlando🌴with our central and east coast TRIBE...learning the skillsets and mindsets for success! (swipe left to see these shining stars)✨And in another week, we head to California to see our west coast peeps!😍The decision to join our hearts with this amazing company was one of the BEST decisions we’ve ever made. In the past 4 years....we have had more fun, more experiences, and more freedom than we ever thought possible.🦋If YOU are ready for a change in your life...whether it be with your health or your finances, PLEASE reach out to me. I don’t bite (I’m actually super nice😂). I just want to tell you more. Just get the info...so you can know your options. Because you are meant to LOVE your life.💛Not just survive through it. #doterra #leadershipdevelopment #entrepreneur #designalifeyoulove 🌈💕✨

I picked up this beauty from the airport yesterday!💛My mama is here to care for our kiddos this week while we head to Orlando for the dōTERRA Leadership Retreat!✨🌈💕I’m so ready to hug all of our friends, laugh my face off, and lounge in the sunshine.☀️Be sure to check my stories...I’ll be documenting the awesomeness of our #doterralife! This year I’ll be speaking on “Becoming a Leader of Leaders” in the breakout sessions...and I’m SO EXCITED because the focus of the whole retreat is using our strengths! How many of you have taken the Strengthsfinder test before?! What are your top 5? #leadership #personaldevelopment #strengthsfinder #entrepreneurlife

My #butiyoga certification is complete and I can officially teach this amazing workout!💪🏻For those who don’t know what Buti is...the word Buti is an Indian Marathi word that means “a cure that has been hidden or kept secret”. The practice is a soulful blend of power yoga, cardio-intensive tribal dance, conditioning, and deep abdominal toning. It has tightened and changed my body faster and more efficiently than anything else I’ve tried!🙌🏻 I love the focus and power this certification brought to my own practice and...I’m a big fan of doing things that I’m afraid of. Like having to do a “graded” teaching demo for 10 min for something I just started 3 months ago😜But from the moment I first found Buti...there was something magnetic drawing me to it and so here we are. We have a group on FB that just started with me and 2 friends that has grown quickly into a group of 330+ women who are learning to love their bodies just as they are. If that resonates with you...message me so you can join the fun!💛#butitribe #butisattvas #yoga #sisterhood

I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to @pharmtable today with my girl @monica.eastburn 💕 Nourishing and delicious...oh my. These were the collard leaf "tacos" with seasonal roasted, pickled, & raw veggies with vegan spreads, & beet cashew crema. I’ll be going back! ✨🌈🌱#vegan #glutenfreevegan #nourish #letfoodbethymedicine

I have longed for a TALL fiddle leaf fig tree...also known as Ficus lyrata (#plantnerd)...for awhile now.💛So when my sweet friend Natalie at @shop_ceremony posted that she had some for sale...I immediately messaged her and said “I need those in my life!”.🙋🏼‍♀️I am now the proud plant mama to 2 of these beauties! They add instant depth and a jungle-like feel to our living room and I can’t stop staring at them.💕🌈😂Making this house our home is the most fun thing ever.🏡✨And if you need me, I’ll be sitting under my tree. #createaspaceyoulove #ficuslyrata #fiddleleaffig #cornersofmyhome #bohemianhome #bohohome #plantlove #plantsofinstagram

It’s that time again...when dōTERRA offers amazing DAILY DEALS and I walk around all week smiling✨🌈🙌🏻Buy one, get one free baby...you know it! If you don’t already have a wholesale account and you’re curious what this is all about, DM me and I will add you to my VIP BOGO group. I do education, giveaways, live videos, and it’s all just a real good time. Swipe left to see how easy it is to get started.✨My favorite thing ever is to help guide you in this process! #doterra #plantmedicine #yourbodywantsoils #oilsforeveryone
