I would like to start a Canadian Community forum thread which would be open to Canadian Etsians who would like to...

1) network with other Canadian sellers
2) share info on upcoming fairs & vendor opportunities
3) share business experiences and knowledge
4) join forces in promoting Canadian Etsians
5) meet new people and make new friends

Need some cute hair clips? Here's a shop you should check out. These are so super cute!! I love the fish - it's awesome. $4.99 (shipping $1.75) There are a few different styles to be found; Elmo, sheep, lady bugs, flowers and ice cream - love them all. I really like the holder cards that the clips are on - they make the clips look very professional. Please be sure to check out this shop and show it some love!!

Hello Everyone!

Sorry I haven't posted in the last few days - between Easter and the kids getting sick...I haven't been able to do much online. My daughter started things off Friday at midnight and now my son is joining in on the fun of being sick as well. YIKES.

So the Spring Handmade Market is a month tomorrow! WEEE. I am so very excited!! If you are following that blog at all, you will see that there is now a designer profile (which I still have to fill the form out for...sorry...) so make sure you check it out whenever you can so you can see a little insite into the shops that will be at the show!

I am going to be listing the forum I have made up for the team at the end of the week, I will be sending out the first real mailing list email, so be watching for it.

And again for those who want to be apart of the business card swap - please email me so I can send you my address - I can't tell who has said yes and who has said no :)

That's all for now,

Feature Friday!!

LeatherMade Nice

Ok - so after looking through a few shops, I clicked the link to this shop. OH MY! I fell totally in love - so much that I have requested a custom order! Anne has a beautiful shop, filled with belts, wristbands, bracelets, dog collars and even bags.

My favourite item is the custom order belt ($75 plus $6.50 for shipping) - to me it is just totally stunning, and SO personal - for me at this time, the price tag is a little high - just being a single income family, but I am hoping that I will soon own one myself :) Be sure to check out Anne's shop and give it some love!

Etsy Day - April 24th

Just read about this on twitter - some people have put together what they are calling "Etsy Day" to promote Etsy to people who have never heard of it. Check the link for more information.
