ETC Trunk Show @ Etsy Labs

One of the Street Teams I'm a member of is having a trunk show at the Etsy Labs in Sept. I'm pretty excited it... Here's the scoop...



Enjoy the best arts and crafts that Texas has to offer, and visit with some terrific Texans, without even leaving the city!

The fun starts Friday, September 28, with the Etsy Labs Last Fridays Trunk Show from 6-8pm EST. Then, because things are bigger from Texas, the show continues on Saturday afternoon from 1-5pm EST.

With more than 50 Etsy Texas Crafters represented, you get a taste not only of Texan artists and Texas size art but also of terrific Texas edibles and door prize drawings every half hour throughout both shows (no need to be present to win).

And if you're one of the first 25 early birds at Friday night's opening shindig, receive a goodie bag, guaranteed to be Texas sized and Texas Special!

The Etsy Texas Crafters Trunk Show is free and open to the public -- but please rsvp to rsvp@etsy.com so we'll know y'all are coming!

Don't know how to get to Etsy Labs? http://www.etsy.com/labs/visit.html
Can't make it to the show? Attend virtually via Etsy.com workshop (link will be posted prior to shows), shop the sales in the ETC shops at Etsy.com throughout the entire weekend, and participate in an online treasure hunt (with prizes!).

Alice in Paris


A grandmother, a candy store, and the Eiffel Tower. All inspirations for this mother/daughter duo from Nova Scotia. Brought together by their love of art and Paris these lady's make some pretty nifty things. Mom paints, daughter crafts jewelry, although right now only the art is for sale in their etsy shop. Instantly I was drawn to this print of the red shoes. Very cute and whimsical. Something I wouldn't mind looking at everyday :). Check them out!

Featured Seller


I've decided to feature a seller on here that I'm really enjoying. This will be updated once a week. I'd really like to focus on Etsy Newbies with less than ten sales just to help get their name out there. 99% off the time this will be the case but occasionally I won't be able to resist some fabulous something :)


Freckled Pink

Ribbon Trimmed Personalized Pillow Case

Super Cute!! I think this would look so cute with a little girl's name on it. Freckled Pink is Tori Rieger, a recent college grad and new wife, who is also teaching my oldest daughter how to sew. She also makes adorable baby garb and monograms just about anything. Check her out on etsy.

What's New

I'm not quite sure how I want to do this yet. So I guess for now I'll show you what I'm working on and get some feed back.

These are English Crackers. Super cute, a little tedious to make but I think they are just adorable. I've made them in Large and Mini sizes... What do you think?
