Introduce Yourself

[#1]

Hello & welcome to the Fish Indie Etsy Team! We've been looking for a way to bring our network together in a way that artists can easily communicate with us and with each other. Feel free to create your own discussions if you have any questions you would like to ask the Fish Indie community's opinion for.

This thread is for everyone to introduce themselves to each other so we will start! If you are totally unacquainted with Fish Indie, we are a brand new subscription-based ad network designed to spotlight Etsy products on popular blogs that are relevant to your target audience. For only $10 a month, shop owners can quickly and easily generate a banner with one-click, and immediately have it published across our network of sponsors. It's an easy and affordable way to directly advertise to the demographic your shop is geared towards.

Now we would like to get acquainted with you. :)

Hi, I'm Mim and I make jewelry with beads and metal clay. I also love to make macrame terrariums which I think of as little plant altars.

Hi! i'm Marisa! I focus on making environmentally responsible jewelry in a delicate and feminine way for the modern and stylish woman. My jewelry is continually blending organic and geometric forms to create one of a kind and unique pieces of jewelry informed by nature. My jewelry is mainly out of sterling silver and polymer clay which I hand make in my home studio in Eugene, Oregon.

Hello everyone! I’m very happy to be here, and to introduce myself to the team. As an emerging artist, I wear two “hats”~ I make fanciful, opulent jewelry from beads, found objects, vintage photos and other unexpected materials; and I also make a personal growth tool called Permission Slips, which are uniquely-designed containers full of playful suggestions and directions for artists, creative types and eclectic seekers to live a creative, “handmade” life every day. My shop has been very small for two years, and I’m finally ready to give it the time and effort it will take for it to really reach others.
Thanks to Fish Indie for helping us be noticed in the giant world of Etsy! I look forward to team discussions and support.

Hello! I *just* joined Fish Indie today; how nice there is a group here too!

I'm a crafty mama of two growing-up-too-fast kids. I love to make things with fabric, my specialty is hand embroidery, in a modern but cute way. Although my name is pillowhead, I not only make pillow covers, but also greeting cards, coffee sleeves, sachets and basically anything I can embroider. :)

I've been away from Etsy for almost 3 years, busy with family and life, but now I'm ready to get back into it! I'm glad I found Fish Indie, I hope it works for me! :)

I am looking forward to connecting with other Etsy shop owners and hearing from new art buyers, too.

Hi We are iEcofun. We want to make things to be intelligence, Eco-friendly and fun. 

It's so easy and fun to be eco-friendly!

We specialize in creating unique home aquaponics kit, Aquariums and plant pots. 

Many of our products enable the plants to self watering that absorbs water from a reservoir below. 

If it is an aquarium/plant pot fusion, the leftover food or fish waste acts as fertilizer for the plants growing above.
