Etsy Eagle Team

 It is official.  The new Etsy team that I have created with three other Etsy shop owners is now a fact.  We are all based in Eagle, Wi. USA.  We are planning local events for our little town as well as events that will encompass our worldwide following.

So far ( new members are coming aboard ) what the three of us offer and what some of us make is different from each other.  Of course, that can change in the future.

The other three Etsy shops are;  promisespromises.etsy.com
                                                 scrapbookingforever.etsy.com
 and                                           debsdetails.etsy.com


Now, a little about each shop.
promisespromises is a shop that features two artists...actually a mother & daughter.  The mom, Sheri creates extremely interesting horse totems.  I am still learning about the totem meanings, but from what I have seen of Sheri's work it is all handmade and painted with the symbols and meanings of what I take to be American Indian lore.  Very fascinating.  Sheri does keep horses on her property so she has first hand knowledge of the animal that she observes on a daily basis.  Eagle is a bit of horse country (many people keep horses here).  Her daughter, who also shares her shop specializes in mixed media and especially pet portraits.  Alyssa can paint a portrait from a snapshot...this enables her to paint for people worldwide.  Alyssa's portaits are engaging and beautiful.  Be sure to check out this shop and tell your friends about it.

scrapbookingforever's owner is Angie.  Angie like me just opened her shop this past November.  Angie carries hundreds of scrapbooking supplies many of which I have not seen before.  She also specializes in making up custom scrapbooking pages and custom calendars.  When you are short of time or don't have the know how or creative abilities that she has contact her and see for yourself what she can offer you.

debsdetails is a shop run by two sisters that in their spare time teach belly dancing!  Deb creates and has just started getting into cement and her sister, Cindy paints. They also sing together as a music group called 'Fallen Angels'.  See their unique items in their shop.  You don't know what you might find!  All very creative I might add.

When you access their web Etsy stores be sure you find an item or two that you like and please 'heart' these items.  This always helps a shop owner because it allows the shop owner to get a handle on what interests the public as well as helping to make that shop more active.  With 170,000 Etsy shops local artists such as ourselves need all the help we can get.

Happy New Year!
