noochis older brother - in felt

i bought 4 items already - i am a sucker for brooches - plastic, not felt
while working my ass off, i have obviously missed out on a spectacular site… i really feel i should have known of its existence. etsy. big american site where you can buy and sell crafts. it rocks. its what i want… only complaint is that there is too wide a selection - which is not really a complaint in the time of the long tail… and especially not since there are many cool options for cross-searching. only… half of it is produced out of felt… and the quality greatly varies. while i do believe felt is an all right material, i wouldn’t base my living nor my style on it. but it took me a while to come up with such hang-up. according to danish paper berlingske, the site launched in 2005 and now has half a million registered users and app. 60.000 sellers. berlingske says “niche products has become big business”… i kind of figured that out… although i know noochi will have a cooler more exclusive product selection, i really wish etsy was noochi. no felt.
