Meet Theresa

Theresa from KraftyGrannysHome is hosting our sneak attack today at 2pm. A frequent hostess, Theresa loves to surprise new Etsy shops!

Theresa does such beautiful work, including crocheted items. When I asked her how she learned to crochet she said:

I couldn't figure out crocheting until my sister had the time to show me, I made a lot of granny squares and quickly got very tired of them so I started challenging myself to make different and harder items. I made a crocheted musical carousel that I entered into Alaska's Fur Rondy craft show, it won the Grand Prize for crocheted items.

Here is her carousel! It certainly was a challenge.

Be sure to visit Theresa's shop - you will see crocheted items and so much more!

And come join us in our sneak attack thread - lots of fun, meet our members and try to guess who the 'victims' will be.

SNEAK ATTACK SHOPS 3/24/2016

Audrey of Audreysdecoupagedesi

has made this lovely treasury of todays Sneak Attack shops! 

Meet Sandi

Sandi from HandmadeBySandi is hosting our sneak attack today at 3pm. A frequent hostess, Sandi has been dealing with some health issues and is happy to be back to choosing new shops!

Sandi loves to crochet and one of her latest creations is this envelope bag - using 100% cotton yarn to make it more sturdy, with a flap and a button. It can be used for so many things while traveling - toiletries, pen and paper, etc. One of our team members ordered one in a different color - and has made the suggestion it would be good for small tablet or kindle. The ideas are swirling around in Sandi's head. LOL

What color do you want yours?

Come join us in our sneak attack thread - check out the clues, and see the 'victims' revealed at 3pm.

Meet Stefano

Stefano from MeoLeathercraft is hosting our sneak attack today at 3pm.

The other day I asked Stefano what was his favorite creation - and this what he said:

I liked while I was doing it (the picture below) because it was the first time that I was doing something for a women and I liked it more when my sister (the one in the photo) that didn't know anything about Steampunk was so amazed about it.

OMG - wish I had the figure to wear something like that - well done Stefano!!

You can see many custom leather and steampunk items in Stefano's shop.

And come join us for lots of fun at our sneak attack thread.

Meet Stefano

Stefano from MeoLeathercraft is hosting our sneak attack today at 3pm Etsy time. One of our international members, Stefano recently hosted his first sneak attack.

I asked Stefano where he gets his inspiration. He says:

I like watching historical documentaries to take inspiration. Also simply watching people and try to understand how something created by me could be used to solve someone else issue.
I'm a LARPer (Live Action Role-Playing) so obviously I like to create fantasy items for people that have my same passion. Books and movies are also a good way to have new ideas.

Stefano creates gorgeous notebook/journal covers - like this celtic one.

There is so much to see in Stefano's shop. Be sure to check out all his creations.

And come join us in our sneak attack thread today - lots of fun, clues and you get to meet many of our members.

Stefano of MeoLeathercraft has made a lovely treasury featuring this week's Sneak Attack shops and our Hostess SweetgrassValley

Meet Debbie

Debbie from SweetGrassValley is hosting our sneak attack today at 2pm, Etsy time.

Ever wonder how a Etsy shop owner comes up with the name of their shop?

Well, this is what Debbie tells us:

I named my shop Sweetgrass Valley because of the sweet grass I have been blessed to be able to tend since 2002 and the Ohio valley where I live. (You can read more about Sweetgrass online)

You all know I love earrings, and these are my favorite from Debbie's shop.

I love all the Native American jewelry that is in Debbie's shop - and you will too.
