Hi there and super warm welcome to each of you.

HI, everyone. I am Taunya. I was hair stylist for 22 years. I owned my own salon while raising three boys. I had some health issues which forced me into shutting down. I struggled with that being the kind of person always on the go! I had to put on the brakes. I needed something to do. I started making jewelry as a hobby and just kept going. I also like painting and working with clays. I come from a long line of Artisans. My Grandmother grew up in Tennessee and she taught herself to play piano, guitar, banjo and she could sing her heart out.
My Mother draws and Paints and also works with clays. My Brother loves to draw. My son illustrates! My family just loves the Arts. My Cousin (who's alot younger then I) told me I should do an Etsy! And the next day I did it! I love it! I am still learning alot. Sales are not where they should be. But I am learning everyday! Plus, meeting wonderful people! which makes the efforts all worth while! Thanks for having me on the team!! =)

Hi Everyone!

This is a wonderful group and I enjoy being a part of it!

I've been evolving on Etsy since 2009 and love creating my special children's artwork jewelry and photo jewelry. I offer a lot of customization and have established wonderful relationships with so many of my lovely clients.

The main focus of what I love to do is offer the ease of obtaining a wonderful personalized gift a client is excited and proud to give and special to receive.

Most of my creations are to celebrate a happy part of a persons life. And sometimes I've created pieces for clients that send love and healing to a dear friend. Those commissions are an honor.

I am truly blessed to create something of meaning that touches peoples heart, souls and funny bones:)

Well hello. My name is Thomas and I have a manufacture facility making things out of wood and Printing on it. I love the smell of fresh cut wood and really enjoy what we do. I love seeing everyone's unique and beautiful pictures and I enjoy the appreciation people have for our product.

I look forward to getting to work with our Etsy Team, go team.

Happy Saturday, everyone!

My name is Cindy and I sell art. Mostly mosaics, my first love, but a few hand painted items too. I call my art "eclectic" because I rarely make the exact same thing twice. It's how my muse works and I've learned after many, many years, to allow her the freedom she needs.

I am a Full-time Nana, Part-time Crafter. I live with my oldest daughter and her family and share in the duties of what it takes to raise a busy fam with two working parents. I LOVE seeing my Grandson's smile every morning. It's the best!!

I really like the name of this team - it makes me feel like I've been virtually hugged. Always a nice feeling, isn't it?!

Happy Sales!

Hi, My name is Margie and I just retired from my full time job of 14 years. I already have a shop on Etsy and am very happy with that shop. So I decided to open a new shop of baby accessories which would not fit into my existing shop.
Thank you for accepting me to this team!
