04.10.08 - I've Been MIA - Sorry

Oh My Goodness!! I have been MIA for a few weeks, I am sorry - been having a hard time trying to sort everything out here with my *new life* For those of you who don't know I just had my second child on March 15th - we had a girl and her name is Zoey. She is doing GREAT and big brither Chandler is adjusting well to not being an only child anymore. So I think I am finally starting to settle in and I am hoping to be able to set aside a little time at least every other day to update around here.

So we have a lot of new members - I am just waiting for Etsy to update our group page to have all the new members on it. And now with summer heading in our direction I am thinking maybe we can work out a team wide sale on Etsy - let's try to promote as much as we can!!!! Does anyone ever run treasuries? I do - so I am thinking maybe a few of us can grab a treasury or two to try to get our names out there - I have seen Etsy Baby do it ALOT and it always greabs my attention to see all the treasuries they grab. Please let me know if you are intested. Also - I REALLY think we should do a card exchange, it's a GREAT way to help promote each other, so again, if you are interested in taking part in a card exchange please let me know - if anyone would like, you can send me your cards and I will wait till I receive a good amount and send them out packages to others on the team - and hopefully we can start spreading the word about who we are!

Week #3


Penny Glass Girl

"I have been an artist my entire life, but have been working mainly in glass for the last six years.
My passions in life include my family and my art and I love finding new ways to communicate my appreciation for both. My two young children provide the creative inspiration and joy that keeps me going on a daily basis." - Taken from ETSY profile.
Check out her shop - it's really awesome. There are many different glass items. Necklaces, Suncatchers, Candle Holders and many more items.

Week #2

Good day everyone!!

Hope everyone is keeping well and selling lots!! I said that I would update this once a week with a new featured seller - and today I am doing so (sorry but things are a little crazy around here with baby #2 due in 16 days!!)

I am running a BnR (Buy and Replace) Treasury right now - click here, and after this one expires I am going to run one for the Toronto Etsy Street Team - so keep your eyes open for it, I am hoping to snag one today - but we will see what happens.

Ok - so what I am really here for...new featured shop.

Welcome!

Ok, first post to the blog. How exciting! Feels like things are finally getting a move on.

I will be featuring a new store every week on the blog. I might send out a questionaire or something for everyone to fill out so we can find out more about everyone.

I am going to start with Mary since it was her who asked about starting a blog.



http://www.creativezone.etsy.com/

Mary offers free shipping to Canada and the USA!! And works mainly with paper at this time. Her cards are simply cute and wonderful. Be sure to check her out - or pass her name on to anyone looking for cute, unique cards!
