Let's get Melbourne Etsy on the map! We have a Facebook page!!!

[#1]

Hi my fellow etsy makers from Melbourne and Victoria!

My Name is Jen and together with the leaders, we're really excited to get to know you all, hear about your awesome stores and put the Melbourne Etsy team on the map.

We're planning to host regular meet ups for those interested in meeting in person, where we can share ideas, put together activities and create an etsy support network and share in a cheeky beverage or two.

For those who are unable to make the meet ups, fear not! Nik Shimmin, the other team leaders and I will be here and on our Facebook page to help and for you to bounce ideas off.

We've got a brand new Facebook page. The page will be updated often and you can find us there!
https://www.facebook.com/etsymelbourneteam

Please introduce yourselves as I'd love to hear about you and your stores, so excited to get to know you all!

Shoutout and a thank you goes out to Adria and Nik for making this all possible.

Hi I have just joined this team - I have been on etsy since 2011. Badges, magnets etc for wedding and party favours.

Thanks Juniper, and let's put Melbourne on the map indeed!!! Looking forward to some catchup and meeting this awesome community - although with baby that might not be too easy :).

[MGPCreations]

Hi everyone,

I have just recently joined this group as I have just moved to Melbourne from Adelaide.
I've had my Etsy shop open now for over a year and I sell various crochet items like baby blankets, mermaid tail blankets, floor rugs and scarves to name a few.
I'd love to come to a meet up but may be tricky as I have no idea how to get to places and also have a young child haha!
I've also joined the Facebook page and look forward to seeing what the future brings

Hi Mallori! Welcome to Melbourne! I hope you are loving it (despite the chill in the air).
I would love to connect with other Melbourne Etsy makers so if anyone is interested in a catch up that would be awesome!
I started my Etsy store last January and am working on getting my store "out there". Like many of us :)

[SadieVain]

Hi Jen and fellow Etsyians!! I'm so glad I stumbled across this thread and to know that there's others out there willing to connect- I'll have someone else to talk to during the day other than my cat :D
Meet ups and brainstorming sounds great! I look forward to meeting you all for a tete-a-tete! xxxxx

Hi ladies and welcome!

Glad to have you all on board. Etsy will be hosting an official meet up not the 4th of August. Details have been announced on their blog! Hope to see you all there.

Hi Jen!

Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to keep this group going :)

We're a young couple in St Kilda East making funky printable wedding stationery and art pieces. We're keen to get involved in any meetups that are going on in Melbs and to meet like minded creatives!

Thanks,
Kirstie and Daniel

Hi Kirstie,

No worries at all, glad to welcome a fellow Melbournite. I noticed you said printable stationery, if you had any physical stationery, We're also hosting the official Melbourne Etsy Market on Nov 19th and applications have opened. Feel free to apply if this applies to you.

Also if you want to be notified of any meet ups we're doing please find us on Facebook on Facebook.com/etsymelbourneteam

Hi everyone,
I run a vintage fashion and linen store, Louisa Amelia Jane, as well as a vintage pattern and sewing supplies shop - Louisa's Needle. I have RSVP'd to the meet up at the Provinicial Hotel on 4th August, and if anyone can give me the address that would be great, as there is more than one Provincial Hotel around. As a vintage seller, I feel a bit of an outsider around all you crafty people. I look forward to meeting you soon.

[Former_Member]

Hi Joanne,

The address is 299 Brunswick St, Fitzroy VIC 3065. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, Etsy and I didn't realise there was more than one provincial hotel, they'll update the blog soon :)

Kind regards,
Jen & The Etsy Melbourne team.

[LouisaAmeliaJane]

Thanks, yes there is also one in Richmond, at least.

Hi all! I'm pretty new to the Etsy community so finding this team is great. I'd love to meet fellow Melbournian Etsy sellers to share ideas, tip and tricks!!!

Hi, Just moved here after living in NZ for 2 years (and England originally), my shop has been in holiday mode as I've been travelling and moving etc, but excited to get making again and I've got some new ideas! I make mostly textiles related products - hand dyed scarves and head bands. Looking forward to meeting other Etsy people :)

[Former_Member]

Hi I'm Lisa. I have a jewellery design store. I've been working as a maker for over 10 years and I joined Etsy in April 2016. I'd love it if you could check out my page and I will be happy to return the offer. Thanks Lisa
