January Team Chat Thread

[Former_Member]

Sorry, I didn't realize others had joined. I'm new to being the captain of a team, but I wanted to make a place for all of us locals to chat.
I'll try to start inviting active Omaha Etsians.
If anyone wants to be made a Leader just let me know.

HI, thanks for the invite!! It's so nice to meet all of you:)

[Former_Member]

Thanks for the invite Jenny. I am pretty new to Etsy, so it's exciting to meet some fellow sellers in Home-aha!

I'd like to get to know everybody... what are your day jobs? Interests? Kids? Favorite places to go for supplies around town?

Thanks for the invitation. I look forward to getting to know the members and view their stores.

Jenny, thanks for the invite and what a great idea. This is my first year on Etsy and it's been a great way to help promote myself as an artist. I am really looking for opportunities for networking in our community to promote the arts in Omaha.
I am a member of the Omaha Craft Mafia (do a search because we are online and on fb). That has already been a great way to make connections. I hope we can all help each other!

Hello There! Thanks for the invite. I am excited to see what the Omaha team is up to. I recently moved back to the area from Tennessee. It's great to be home. Please feel free to stop by my shop.

Hi all - brand new member to the team. Thank you Jenny for inviting me.

I am relatively new to Omaha, moved here about 2.5 years ago with my husband.

Really excited to meet fellow artisans in the area, wondering if I may have met some of you at shows in the area.

Have a great day everyone!

[Former_Member]

Hey all! I started a new discussion topic where we can post info about ourselves including our online links!

[Former_Member]

Hi Jenny: Thanks for the invitation! It is nice to know that I have fellow Etsyians in Omaha!

[KatWithAdash]

[AnikaMcFarland]

Hi there. Thanks for the invite! I am looking forward to getting to know fellow etsians in Omaha and surrounding areas!

[Former_Member]

Yay.. a place for us. I was wondering when this would happen, lol. Thanks for starting this team Jenny!!!

[NightOwlMarket]

Good morning everyone - I am amazed to see how many local etsians there are. Thanks for inviting me!

Anyone out there in the Omaha area make sew in labels? Convo me - I want to use them on my purses for a large custom order I just received.

[Former_Member]

Jenny,
Thank you for the invite and taking the time to lead the Omaha Team.

[Former_Member]

Thank you for inviting me. I am new to etsy and fairly new to Omaha. I have recently move here from Nashville, TN

[secondarycreations]

Hi, and thanks for the invitation. Anything I could find about an Omaha team was really outdated, so I'm glad there's something new going on!

[jstinson]

Night Owl...glad to see you here! Hope you can find your labels locally...that would be great!

[CreationsByChaosfay]

Sorry for never posting. I'm an Etsian living near the Olde Market. I was thinking we could have a day where we get together and a sort of trade between us. Bring a few pieces of work and see what it is others have that we'd like to trade for, plus an exchange of business cards. What do y'all think?

[Former_Member]

naynaymacrame, great idea but how to make that happen? hmmmmm... I can see lots of great opportunities here!

[AnikaMcFarland]

naynaymacrame that sounds like a great idea!

[Former_Member]

Naynay- sounds like fun to me! We're also talking about setting up and art show/ sale in the fall for all Omaha Etsyins...

BTW: I just made a treasury called "Local Love ~ Hearts in the Heartland" and I put in as much of the V-day-ish stuff from you guys as I could find! Check it out: http://www.etsy.com/treasury/4d475185720c8eefc42242fc/local-love-hearts-in-the-heartland
