Great picks mike, but how about featuring those of us who don't have a city for miles? One of the (many) huge advantages of Etsy is that it gives rural crafters the opportunity to reach a large audience... surely city dwellers already have that on their doorstep?

Great finds here - I especially like the Super Ted from Auckland and the cuff from Montreal.
Next time you take a virtual tour around the globe though I'd love to see finds from places other than cities please! We don't all live in the metropolis. How about sticking a pin in a map? :-)
