Crafty teens are rocking Etsy

I’ve always assumed Etsy was a place for adults to sell their items, and never considered that a crafty teen or two could also sell on the site. Color me surprised to discover that the terms of use basically states that any industrious teen with an approving parent/guardian can launch a shop and sell with the best of them — as many of these teens have.

Candidate is one of my faves — she’s an eighteen-year-old Brit with mad design skills:

Another seller that I adore is EllaBands. While her hair bands and necklaces leave me giddy, these chalk board hearts (which could be used for SO MANY THINGS — DIY birthday invites, a fun at-home activity, and so on) slay me:

Fever Dream Apparel’s Soul Searcher Pendant kind of wigs me out (does that eye remind anyone else from the book of spells in Hocus Pocus?), but it’s still quite badass:

Jamie Bowwe specializes in funky earrings — these could be worn by pretty much anyone, regardless of age, sex, or gender, dontcha think?

Waste Not is a shop filled to the brim with vintage and upcycled clothing, like this awesome green-and-pink owl tee:

And finally, the girl behind Talk Proof creates brightly-colored plush something-or-others (could we use animal?), like Kepler the Beaver:

We’ve covered non-mall summer jobs for teens, but do you guys know of any other spots online teens can sell their items year-round?
