    More specifically from this seller, brendasbridalveils, I've looked all over the place and I love one of her flower fascinators.  She has great cust. feedback, but I've never done the etsy thing, so just wondering.  What do you think of the fascinator should I just get it?

    Here's the pic:

    Gorgeous fascinator!! If she has awesome feedback I'd err on the side of her being really good. It's the ones with poor feedback that you have to worry about.  Maybe convo her and chat for a bit to see if you like her response time, etc.

     

    Good luck!!

    I have purchased two hair flower from Etsy for my wedding! They both turned out even better then the picture and you are paying a fraction of the cost then you would be at a bridal salon. I say go for it.

    I just ordered a veil from her yesterday and she shipped it out this morning. She sent me a message letting me know and sent the tracking number.

     

    I've ordered a number of things from Etsy for both myself, gifts and our wedding and have had no issues at all. I've also commissioned custom items from specific sellers and have had great results.

    I've purchased from etsy before.  It has always seemed safe to me.  The sellers are always really nice and friendly.  I'm going to open up an Etsy shop soon too - I hope that I will still get sales even though in the beginning I won't have any feedback!

    I have ordered my hair comb, earrings, necklace, AND my wedding dress from etsy (the first three from one seller) and I have never had a single problem! I <3 etsy! If the seller has good feedback, I'd say give it a shot! Also- that fasinator is beautiful!

    Just wanted to chime in and say I'm a HUGE Etsy fan!  I've placed plenty of orders from Etsy sellers without any problems.  My daughter's first birthday party was a total DIY + Etsy party. 

    I think my only frustrationhas been with was one vendor taking a bit longer than expected for shipping.  You can usually judge shipping through feedback, most customers comment on shipping times in their feedback response.  I'd say any Etsy seller with great feedback is safe to deal with. 

    As a tip, I always contact the seller before placing my order to let them know my intention to order and what I'm looking for.  I like to see how they respond (customer service skills are a plus for me!) and how long it takes for them to respond. 

    Best wishes with it - Etsy is addicting.  Oh, and the fascinator you've found is gorgeous!  I say go for it!  Laughing

    I just ordered a flower fascinator and a birdcage veil from etsy yesterday, and they have both shipped already!  If you are not satisfied with your purchase, I think some sellers let you return it as long as you buy something its place, kind of like store credit.  But I'm sure you'll be pleased because that hairpiece is FABULOUS!!

    I bought a flower/feather fascinator from VieModerne on Etsy and I was so please I bought 8 more for my bridesmaids! I've found Etsy to be fabulous for pretty much everything so far: bolero, cake topper, fascinators, garters...

    my fiance bought my engagement ring from etsy and he had no problems. i've also bought earrings and art from etsy from a number of sellers with no problem. generally, the people who sell on etsy want to get their product out to the world and are very responsive about things. i'm planning on buying a fascinator from etsy as well, but i'm hesitating because i have no idea what ones i like more!
