Good early morning (est)! My name is Elizabeth aka: mamadupuis. Just joined this forward thinking team and hope that I can offer a little something :) I am a treasury making nut so please don't get too mad when you see "you've just been treasured" in your message box..lol! My little shop is all vintage! Stop by and have a quick peak when you can.

P.S....I am a crazy Canadian!

Hi Team,

I am Anna, I live in California, and I am obsessively making necklaces and treasuries. I guess they satisfy two different sides of my creative nature.

I will try to be a productive member of this interesting team.

Hello Everyone,
My name Is Diane. I live in California. My shop is Muddy Waters Ceramic Creation, because I love to play in the mud. I make a combination of wheel thrown pottery and small sculptural pieces.

I also love to make treasuries. I am looking forward to being a part of this wonderful team.

[WeeBijouxJewels]

Hi everybody,
My name is Anne. I live in SW Gulf Coast Florida, but left my heart in New England. I am a vintage junkie. I love the hunt and the treasure and the memories that vintage brings to my soul. My shop is vintage and a section for handmade knits and toys. I chill by knitting.
I love to make treasuries. It is like painting to me a form of self expression.
I have 3 kids and lots of grandchildren. One big goofy dog and a very fat cat. Then there is that man I married. Skip... My anchor in life.
Will be fun to get to know all of you.
Anne aka...weelambie

Hello Ingenuity Members,
My name is Catherine and I am honored to have been invited to the team. I recently retired from 35 years owning and operating my home based upholstery shop but my creative juices are not cooperating. So, I decided to make handbags and totes out of all my fabrics and remnants that I don't know what else to do with.
I am wild about all the gifted and talented artists on Etsy and very happy to be included in this marvelous environment. I'm looking forward to networking with you all.
best regards,
Catherine

[KMBerlin]

Hi there,

I am Katja and my shop KM Berlin features jewelry and accessories. As my shop name already suggests, I am located in Berlin Germany, and have been a happy Etsy shop owner since September 2012.

I love using leather and gemstones for my jewelry and have found my passion for dying processes a couple of months ago. So now I also offer hand dyed oversized cotton scarves.

I am excited to see how this group will grow and in what direction it will go..

I love this Team phylosophy. We all need promotion and sometimes it really seems to take day and night of our time. I am open to learning things and I love making treasuries.

Please check my shop out and I will be with you often! :)

Hello! Thank you for inviting me! I live in Hampshire UK, 5 minutes from the beach. I spent 20 years in the armed forces so this is my new venture that is allowing me to put down roots and look after my 3 wonderful children :) Hubby is still in the forces so I am often a one man band so to speak!

Thank you for the invite! I am slowly making my way through this wonderful world of Etsy. My shop is CALaMayCarvings and I love working with wood and natural items. Now if I can move away from the full-time job to the world that I love and 'live in' every free minutes --- I will have achieved my goal! I look forward to interacting with you all!

[Curiopolis]

What fun!! I love the spirit of this team and the ideas behind it. It's so great to see familiar faces too.

I opened my shop, Curiopolis, on New Year's Eve. It's all about vintage and antiques, which I love, especially art pottery and jewelry and dare I say curiosities :) The past few months I've been very busy getting the shop up and running (we all know about that!) but I'm beginning to catch my breath.

With any luck, I'll be listing some of my artwork in the shop in the not too distant future. I'm especially looking forward to getting back to my studio and hope to make that a regular thing again soon.

I deeply admire the creative spirit of the shops on etsy and the "ingenuity" that goes into the creative work appearing on these pages.

Thanks so much for inviting me to join. I look forward to working with all of you and, of course, will do my best to spotlight the team however I can!

[bagsyblueco]

Hi guys! I'm Ashley and I make fabric flowers, among other things. I'm a mama to almost one-year-old twin girls, and they keep me pretty darn busy. I'm about ready to branch out to stuff beyond flowers, but we'll see how it goes! Anyway, excited to be part of the team. Have a great Sunday!
