Introduce Yourself - If You Wish! :-)

[SurvivedAnotherDayCU]

I thought it would be nice to give all new members a chance to introduce yourself. It also helps me keep track of whether I've upheld my promise of favouriting all new members shops and also at least 5 of their items. :-)

So, what do you sell? :-)

Hello, my name is Kathryn. I'm a photographer, right now I'm focusing on custom photo cards for the holidays

[Former_Member]

I just joined the cliche thin team. Am new at this. Where do I go to post my photo to proceed. Also, I did not tell a bit about myself. Guess that is to late ?

[SurvivedAnotherDayCU]

Welcome all :-)

YbAverage (sorry I dont know your name to address you) - you aren't too late to tell us anything about yourself. You don't have to do that, its just a way of getting to know each other.

All you have to do to get promoted in here is to join in with some of the games by posting your link to a chosen item. I have already favourited your shop and 5 of your items which will show up to my own followers. :-)

I'm Amber, and I have a love for working with my clay and other Jewery. I make custom polymer clay jewelry( mostly octopus tentacles) and other random fun arts and crafts. I'm 21 and work 2 jobs to keep myself afloat. My crafts help pay for my animals. I have 2 ferrets (Darla and Olaf) and they are my babies. I promote here and on FB. And my shop is always doing sales.

Can't wait to visit shops on here!

Hi! My name is Christine and I recently reopened my store on Etsy. I hand knit my own designs of infinity scarves and sell hand made art (Right now I am exploring paper cut art). I opened a store a long time ago but had no idea what I was doing. Now I finally have an official business license and seller's permit and I'm super excited to truly pursue my business ventures.
Nice to meet everyone! :)

[SurvivedAnotherDayCU]

Christine, welcome to the team :-) I LOVE your scarves! Unfortunately I'm allergic to wool but the one I love is the infinity one in Ombre Tan. I walk 5 miles a day to do the school run and over here in the UK in the middle of the winter that would be much needed! :-)

[CsomArt]

Thank you Donna! I am always in search of all kinds of yarns to work with. I have several all acrylic scarves and I am definitely still in the process of filling up my store, so stay tuned for more! I like the all acrylic yarns too because they are super soft!

Hi, my name is Thorunn and I just opened my shop. I recycle paper and make notebooks and pictures. I also use pallets, carton and Icelandic fish leather of Salmon for my items.
I welcome you all to drop by and look at my items in my shop.
Wish you all the best of luck.
Best regards from Iceland.

[SurvivedAnotherDayCU]

Welcome to the team Thorunn! What lovely items you make. I confess I have never heard of fish leather until now. How unique :-)

[NobbysNibs]

Hello. I'm Nobby and I make pens, pencils and other items on my woodturning lathe. At the moment, my Etsy shop has a selection of my handmade wooden & acrylic fountain pens, but I'll soon be adding some new & different handmade wooden items.

[SurvivedAnotherDayCU]

Welcome Nobby. :-) You are very talented :-)

Hello, my name is John, I'm a woodturner and live in Leander, Tx. All Wood is Beautiful. Wood has a random character that can not be duplicated by anything manmade. I make an effort to expose and highlight that beauty in each of my pieces.

After retiring from the State of Texas I explored a variety of interests for several years. Intrigued by some wood turnings seen at a wood carving show, and believing that everyone regardless of talent needs an outlet to express their artistic inclinations, I took a class at Woodcrafters in Austin, Texas in 2009. There I made a birdhouse and a lasting connection with woodturning and the woodturning community. Shortly thereafter I bought a lathe and set it up in a rented storage room in a Port Aransas RV park. There I made bowls and spindles and many mentoring contacts in the coastal bend area as my abilities improved. When we gave up the traveling lifestyle and returned to our home, I built a small shop and bought a better lathe. Now the hobby has become a full-time occupation that fills most days with learning and creating something pretty. I particularly enjoy custom orders for things I have never made before. I am a member of the Coastal Bend Woodturners Association and the Central Texas Woodturners Association.
