Team Information

Upcyclers

Description

Artisans who repurpose existing materials to create fashion, art or products with a new value, purpose or aesthetic appeal.

About this team

Buyers can find our products and Treasury lists on Etsy using our official team search tag: Teamupcyclers! We encourage you to follow us on Facebook or our blog: Love 2 Upcycle! You can find the links in the left column of this page. Upcyclers are artisans who repurpose existing materials or post consumer waste to create fashion, art or products with a new value, purpose or aesthetic appeal, thereby reducing the consumption of raw materials, energy and resources that must be conserved for the environmental health of the planet. We also re-introduce vintage fashion and objects to the marketplace thereby rescuing them from being discarded or neglected.

Who can join?

Membership is open to all Etsy sellers who Love 2 Upcycle! We will look at your shop and verify you are a seller of upcycled goods, if however you use upcycled packaging please let us know and that is considered a qualifying attribute. Upon joining, all members should read our discussion titled 'Welcome to Upcyclers' found @ http://www.etsy.com/teams/6610/upcyclers/discuss/9376351/ ~Please also read the Community and Teams section of the Do's and Don'ts of Etsy @ http://www.etsy.com/policy/dosdonts#thecommunity A significant effort should be made by members to reuse, reduce, recycle, repurpose and relove the products they create. This can be applied to new handmade goods as well by practicing green standards in their production, for example, minimizing waste and donating unwanted materials. You must be an active seller on Etsy with some listings that are considered upcycled: recycled, reused, repurposed, reclaimed or a vintage item that needs to be reloved. A communal spirit of sharing support, resources, ideas and advice to further the upcycling movement is the foundation of the team and its primary mission. Anyone who shares these values and goals is welcome to join the team, until such time that they prove themselves to be otherwise motivated or conduct themselves in a contrary manner to this charter.
