Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

My name is Hanna and I crochet! But everyone I know knows that... Most people don't know is... umm... I dunno, I'm an open book! But I do have a four year old Autistic son.

I design all of the headbands and hair clips that are in my shop, and am working on designing crocheted clothing. I love the vintage lace and textured look of crochet. I'm relatively young (as far as crocheters go!), as is my shop and I'm just getting into the swing of getting items done up, photographed and listed!

Oh yeah, and I ramble!

Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

Hannapaige, I have worked with autistic children in the form of equestrian training in a program called Heroes on Horseback. It is wonderful to see how the children respond when they are lifted onto a horse. Sometimes it is a challenge just to get them up on the horse, but when we do. it is amazing what we see. We even began to get some speech out of one autistic 5 year old,. and that was pretty rewarding, to say the least. .

Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

I guess I haven't officially introduced myself!

My name is Stephanie Nicole and I've just started selling on Etsy about a week and a half ago. So excited about that.
For now I am selling Jewelry, Hair Adornments, and Accessories.

I think I first started designing things when I got to be in double digits. I remember cutting socks into barbie doll tunics. Now I've learned to make things that people can actually wear. :)

Self taught, I upcycle and recycle scraps and material that get close to being thrown away. I love taking something that other people see as junk or unusable and creating it into a treasonable item to be used or worn.

So thanks for joining this team and for taking the creative journey with us other passionate designers!

-Stephanie Nicole

Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

Hello My name is Lisa Jean. I opened my shop "New & Vintage Treasures" on August 23, 2011. I make jewelry and I have a few vintage items too. I also like to create things with vintage items.

I make earrings, necklaces, bracelets, hair pins, and hair combs. I have always loved taking apart things to make something else since, well, let's say quite awhile ago! LOL!

I crochet, cross stitch, and make, well, I don't know how to say, but something like a fabric runner for a cedar chest too! I make blankets, throw blankets, baby blankets, and can cross stitch anything. Plus don't forget the fabric runners! I want to add these items as time goes on.

I want to make this my full-time job. The only problem I seem to be running into right now is that I have not sold anything! But I will not give up!!

Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

Hey There!
My name is Karen. I have two shops on Etsy currently, The Gypsy's Thimble where I display my jewelry and amulet pouch designs, and Old World Beads, which helps to support my beading addiction. I have been blessed with the pleasure of having my work in galleries around the country. I have spent my entire adult life living behind a lighthouse on the Oregon Coast, but recently necessity required me to move to the midwest to be a companion for my elderly mother. Big change! I desperately miss the ocean, but you do have snow here! Boy, do you have snow!

Re: Your name, and Your merchandise

Hi I'm Amber and I just started at etsy, I've been making jewelry lately and I absolutely love it! I draw things out when I'm at work and then when I get home I put pieces together. I make about 10 new pairs of earrings a night and I'm thinking I'm really going to have to make some other types of jewelry soon because I just have way too many earrings kicking around.

Anyway I'm excited to have joined a group and I'm hoping to learn lots from everyone here :)
