The EtsyBloggers Team is a group of talented Etsians that love to make things, but they also love to blog. When they invited me to join I felt honor and (gulp) responsibility!
When I first started blogging I wasn't sure I was going to like it, but it wasn't long before I saw it as a great way to give timely communication to those interested in my jewelry. Letting them in on what new things were inspiring me or what new techniques I was learning. Since then it has become much more than that. I've met "new" friends throughout the world who share similar interests in nature and the environment. And others, like myself, find blogs to be windows into worlds they may know little or nothing about. It's a lot like travel, something I do love and blog about, in the way it widens your views. You can't help but become more compassionate, tolerant and a better world citizen when you start sharing your experiences and reading about others.
So, with that in mind, I very much look forward to meeting new artists and crafters throughout the world and sharing them with you. I'll be inviting you to open your window once a month to a new member of our team. I'll send you to a link of their blog as well as photos of some of their work I find interesting. You can always find the link to the latest on the upper right hand side of my blog under Featured Etsy Blogger of the Month.
Update 2/12/2015: I am no longer affiliated with this Etsy team.
