The short answer is that you won’t be able to use that code on WordPress.com.
@justjennifer shared a suggestion about a year ago that may not be ideal, but may work for you:
You can take a screenshot of your Etsy mini on Etsy, throw it into a image editing program, crop it, resize it and then upload it to your Media Library. You can then use the image in an Image Widget to display the “mini” and link it to your shop. https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/image-widget/
You can see it in action on a site here: https://yarnaholic.wordpress.com/ No, unfortunately, it won’t update automatically. (sigh)
There is an alternate method suggested here: https://soul2sparkle.wordpress.com/2011/07/24/how-to-create-an-etsy-mini-widgit-for-wordpress-com-using-html/ but it, too, won’t update automatically.

Not a silly question at all!
You can obtain the image’s URL from your site’s Media Library. We have some step-by-step guidance, including screenshots, here:
