15 Most Unique Fidget Toys On Etsy

As internet communities like Tumblr, Twitter, and Facebook change and evolve, sometimes leaving their original users behind, one has stayed true to their roots: Etsy.

Though it's now a publicly traded company, the company that’s synonymous with handcrafted, curated goods continues to make space for interesting, creative products - and their creators.

One space that we’ve been excited to see grow on Etsy? Fidget toys. 

As big proponents of the occasional fidget (you may have seen the original Fidget Cube at one point!), we recognize the craft that goes into a great fidget toy.
A great fidget toy is equal parts simple to use and delightfully repetitive. An added bonus? Having some elements of mastery (or what the kids might call “tricks”!). Made from a number of materials, from 3D-printed plastics to hand-carved wood, fidget toys are designed to be gratifying to the touch.

While these may be the common threads that tie fidget toys together, these are just a foundation, a baseline for creative tinkerers to use as they come up with their own ideas. 

It’s in celebration of these inventive individuals that today we share 15 of the most unique fidget toys on Etsy right now.

Etsy Fidget Toy #1: All Pink Mechanical Fidgets

How It Works: If you’re looking for just the “right amount of clickity-clack feedback,” this is the unique fidget toy for you. Like many of the five-star reviews on this Etsy page suggest, this fidget toy serves one main purpose: make the iconic keyboard sound without having to actually type anything. 

Designed in an attractive pink shade with a number of available styles, include cubes, lines, and other handheld objects, you’re sure to find one that fits your space (just be mindful that it is *very* audible).

Etsy Fidget Toy #3: Genuine Do-Nothing Fidget Toy Made Of Assorted Woods

How It Works: This toy lays out what it is that makes fidget toys so charming: it does nothing. According to the description, “When you turn the crank in a circular motion all the parts move and it does nothing.”

And yet, fidget toys do more than nothing. They help us to relax, to relieve stress, or just to play around a bit during an otherwise hectic day. While this Do-Nothing Fidget Toy may make claims at nothingness, it’s attractive wood design and solid construction make it something quite worthwhile.
