Hello! I'm Hanna from Troy. Been on Etsy for a while, but the past 6 months have been rough on my life, so haven't been creating or promoting like usual. I also have been in a new job at the Stage Nature Center in Troy and we have an upcoming Festival in April that we are promoting and looking for Michigan vendors. I will post that promo in the art fair thread.

In the meantime, please do check out my shop for some exceptional jewelry items at TashinkaBeadingHeart. I also have a second shop called Tashinka's Talismans (www.tashinkastalismans.etsy.com) that you might want to look into if you like simple pendant necklaces.

I look forward to seeing all your great Michigan-made items and to doing treasuries from them!

Ciao!

Re: Introductions! (New shops, name changes, First posts, etc)

Hi everyone,

I just got started with Etsy. I've been making things for my wedding on Belle Isle this summer and decided to see if there's interest in any of my creations.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/222029202/fairy-inspired-flower-and-pearl-headband?ref=shop_home_active...

I'm also hawking my fiancee's hand-crafted digeridoos.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/221837978/bright-colors-painted-didgeridoo?ref=shop_home_active_5

Kinda throwing it all against the wall to see what sticks. I'd love some advice on where to go from here. The current plan is to post an item every week until I get up to 20. Wish me luck!

I do have free shipping for Detroit metro-area folks available: LOCALPICKUP

*politely shakes hands with everyone, gives compliments on outfit/accessory pairings*

Hello beautiful people, I'm pretty darn new at Etsy and I'm just jumping right in with some new items this week. I'm pretty much a gigantic fashion nerd so I've combined my favorite types of jewelry and accessories and added a touch of video games, cartoons, and movie themes to them.

If you are as big a nerd as I am, we're gonna get along just fine. Check out some of these bad boys:

And hit me up on the Twitters: @CSFoxBurrow
Or on Tumblr: http://captainshadowsfoxburrow.tumblr.com/
(still working on setting up a Facebook page)

Really looking forward to getting to know you dudes and dudettes.

Re: Introductions! (New shops, name changes, First posts, etc)

Hi all,

New to the team! I was born and raised in Detroit and via 10+ years in the Air Force, I have ended up in Texas. All my family is still back in Michigan, and my primary reason for joining this team is because I love to shop on Etsy, and enjoy buying Michigan made products as gifts for my family back home!

We are sisters-in-law (Lindy and Casey) living in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Lindy is a native Michigander, while Casey is a transplant to the state since marrying Lindy's brother. We just opened our Etsy shop about a month and a half ago to sell handcrafted quilting, tatting, and beading products. Creating began as a hobby for us, but we're looking forward to growing our shop as we learn the ropes.
