Top 5 Most Bizarre Finds on Etsy

We all know and love Etsy, the online marketplace for handmade and vintage items. Opening an Etsy shop can be a great way to earn a little extra cash selling things like custom wall art or handmade jewelry. Etsy’s popularity has grown quickly since it first opened about ten years ago. And with gross sales of over two billion dollars last year, it’s understandable that people from all walks of life would want to set up shop. 

Amid the craft supplies, crocheted baby clothes, and party decorations, Etsy can be a treasure trove of rare and unusual items. Here, in no particular order, are the top 5 most bizarre finds on Etsy:

1. Donald Trump scented candle by JDandKateIndustries. If you want your room to smell like Vladimir Putin, Ronald Reagan, or Teddy Roosevelt, this is the shop for you:

2. Socks made of dog hair by WoolShopUAByMaria. (No word on what kind of dog the hair is from):

3. A taxidermy mouse dressed as Harry Potter by TheCurious13. Check out this shop for all your dead-rodents-in-costume needs:

4. A heart-shaped paper weight made of raccoon teeth, for when you need that really unique Valentine’s gift by ShinerSkulls:

5. And finally, a poop-shaped crayon (that really writes!) by JodysBee:
