Member Feature: Go Against the Grain

Tell us a little about your shop.
My shop is primarily comprised of digital goodies that the customer can purchase and then print at home or at a local print shop. This is a great option because you don't have to wait for shipping as it is emailed, you don't have to pay for shipping, and you dont pay an upcharge on printing!

What brought you to etsy?
I started my etsy shop while planning my own wedding. I had been designing monograms for free for other brides when someone suggested I sell them. Soon after that I discovered etsy and jumped on board!

How long have you been crafting?
For as long as I can remember. My mom is an art teacher so we were always doing crafts or projects and I still love it!
What is your favorite item in your shop right now?
I'd have to choose between my cupcake flags and my digital map designs. I LOVE cupcakes so anything having to do with them makes me smile. The map designs are a lot of fun to do because no 2 are a like and there are lots of options

What is your "day job?"
I am a creative director for a national medical trade association. I design their bi-monthly magazine as well as provide other graphic support.

Where do you find inspiration?
Everywhere, but mostly in magazines. I love reading blogs of all sorts too, lots of great things out there.

What is one thing you wish you could do better?
Oddly, I can't draw. Yes I'm a graphic designer but I use a computer for that. I wish I could draw or paint well!

What is one crafting tool you couldn't live without?
My laptop!

What is your favorite book/movie/song?
Favorite book is Memoirs of A Geisha; favorite movie is Gladiator (awesome music); I don't currently have a favorite song

Where else can we find you?
My blog is http://www.agoodbuild.wordpress.com/
My twitter name is @agoodbuild
and I have a facebook fan page at http://www.facebook.com/GoAgainstTheGrain


Thanks Laurel!

Member Feature: Certainly Chic

Tell us a little about your shop.
Certainly Chic is a place for brides and anyone planning an event to purchase unique additions for their event. At the moment, it's mostly focused upon weddings but once summer hits, we will be branching out into parties of all types. It's a place for your vision to come into focus and for me to help you achieve a look you've spotted.

What brought you to etsy?
I used it during my own wedding planning and really came to love the site. I think it's a fabulous place for handmade items (and vintage goodies). I love the "environment" and the people who frequent the site. It's fabulous!

How long have you been crafting?
As long as I can remember, actually. I used to love doing all sorts of things as a kid and in my high school years was nicknamed "Martha Stewart" by my volleyball teammates. I was always in charge of putting together a unique handmade gift for a friend, making signs for our school, or making the costumes and props for our school's marathon dance contests. I am a HUGE scrapbooker and absolutely love it. I have way too much piling up right now but that's another post. ;)

What is your favorite item in your shop right now?
It's hard to choose. For weddings, I love the parasols. They are so fun and beautiful. I want to get married again and use one! For more "everyday", the cake server set. I have started doing the same bead styling to everyday serving ware we use for guests. I made my mom a set for Christmas to go with her new kitchen. She LOVES it and everyone always comments on it, which makes me smile. :)
What is your "day job?"
I am a Title I teacher at a small Christian school in Washington, DC. I work with impoverished children who are struggling in reading and mathematics.

Where do you find inspiration?
Everywhere! I love watching extravagent wedding shows and coming up with ways to get those looks at a much more budget friendly price for brides. I also adore looking at paint chips in home improvement stores. My husband thinks I'm crazy but seeing all those beautiful shades and chips really allows me to connect colors I might not normally have used before and utilize them in my own crafts.

What is one thing you wish you could do better?
I wish I could reach out to more people on etsy. I just don't have a ton of time between teaching full time and current orders to really put myself out there more. Thank goodness I have summers off for that, though.

What is one crafting tool you couldn't live without?
My cutterbees. I pink puffy heart them.

What is your favorite book/movie/song?
Book - Anything Sophie Kinsella right now. I have a high stress job and reading her on the metro is so relaxing and light-hearted. Just what I need! Movie - Newsies. Hands down the best ever. Christian Bale had me at "...but people call me Cowboy". Song - This always varies but I definitely love anything Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble.

Where else can we find you?
My blog is being revamped as we speak and will be posted on twitter (CertainlyChic) when it's unveiled! :)


Thanks Heather!

Bonus Giveaway! Day 15- Two by Two Creations

flwoer

I’ve enjoyed crafts all my life but started making items for babies and children when I was on bedrest with my twin daughters. The name “TwobyTwo” is in honor of my daughters because I tend to do things two at a time, like having babies :)

heart
I was really disappointed by the quality of items I was buying, so I decided that I could make the same items that were not only cuter but also better made.  I started making bows and had people request them and I was gifting them to friends.  I finally decided to formally try to sell them and its been a huge success so far and my business just keeps growing.   I like coming up with new ideas and adding new products to my store.   I use quality supplies and I only make things that my own toddlers would use. I always say my items are toddler tested and mommy approved. 

I love the look on a little girl’s face when she loves her bow or when a mom loves the shirts for her son.  It makes me feel so great knowing I am helping to bring smiles to people’s faces. 

Today’s BONUS giveaway is for an infant hat, shown below.

Certainly Chic Giveaway

Giveaway Photo2
Certainly Chic started as a small idea after my own wedding in March 2008. As I was planning my own wedding, I began to create items that fit certain details that I wanted and couldn't find in stores. I had several brides contacting me after my wedding asking me to recreate items for them. I really enjoyed it and so I decided to branch out and make something of it!
Giveaway Photo1

I am currently a full time Title I teacher in Washington, DC. That "real" job certainly has its challenges and stresses so I love being able to come home and let the creative juices flow into something beautiful! Keep your eyes on my shop for some new items and new ideas coming in late spring/early summer! :)

I am giving away a hand-painted parasol in your choice of color and saying. I have done everything from "Just Married", "I Do", and "Thank You" to "Birthday Girl" and initials. Possibilities are endless!

Karmas Creation Giveaway

IMG_6147

Karmas Creation was born out of necessity on a number of levels. I was getting married and couldn't find any affordable accessories that I liked so I decided to make my own; I’m a mom, and as a mom you often put yourself last and this is not a good thing. As a creative person you need to keep those juices flowing and those hands busy! Thus Karmas Creation was born!

IMG_6413-1-1
Creating jewelry and other accessories helps to keep my creative brain satisfied and ensures I take a little me time. And the great thing about Karmas Creation's is that my creations look rich but are easy on the pocket book! ;)

IMG_6292

The above gorgeous earrings are today’s giveaway item!

Contest is open from right now until 10 pm CST to US residents.

1.) Leave a comment on this blog with your favorite item from the Karmas Creation store.

2.) Follow this blog!

3.) Tell us when/how you’d use these fabulous earrings!

4.) Tweet the following phrase “Check out the @KNETTeam blog! Today’s freebie is from Karmas Creation #day11 http://knetetsyteam.blogspot.com/

5.) Bring a new follower to this blog and have them put your name as the referral for a bonus entry. :-)

Winner will be announced tonight/tomorrow morning! Go enter now!

SwishDesigns Giveaway

Hi! I’m Donna from SwishDesigns, and I’m a stay at home mom of a really awesome three year old boy named Ryan and currently pregnant after 2 years of infertility with a sweet baby girl who is due May 1st. I’m beyond excited for the upcoming birth of our new baby and looking forward to all that a new baby brings.

Speaking of being born (ha ha), SwishDesigns was “born” after many years of creating monograms, wedding products (invitations, programs, seating charts, save-the-dates, etc), birthday invitations, birth announcements and many other party invitations for friends, family, and a lot of my knottie and nestie friends. I absolutely love creating cards and party supplies that mean something to YOU ... whether it's a simple job or one that takes several tries to get it perfect....I love it all. All of the projects I work on are something special – not only to my customers but to me too – I want to create something that you are proud of…that you’re going to love to use…and that you’re excited to send out!

As part of me being creative, I really love to throw parties – even casual get togethers can be festive, right?  My latest party is was my son's 3rd birthday.  He wanted a pancake party…and a train party…and an airplane party. Sooo – I combined all three. :)

Some wedding projects I’ve worked on:

Mary*Mule Giveaway

IMG_4471_25
Mary*Mule is my shop for handmade fabric accessories. I sewed an apron in 7th grade home economics, and swore I would never touch a sewing machine again. Fast forward about 15 years. After seeing some funky bags at a farmers market and coffee cozies on Etsy, I finally decided I wanted to learn to sew...again.  I bought myself a sewing machine for my birthday and jumped right in.
IMG_5035_14
I started out making coffee cozies, then slowly added tote bags, purses, boxy bags, zipper pouches and some baby bibs. While I often use designer fabrics, I like to use upcycled materials like vintage linens, or clothing cast off to the thrift store and try to use them whenever possible. My goal for the new year is to add more man-friendly items to my shop, and what better material to use than repurposed men's clothing?
Today you will get the chance to win one of my newest manly box bags. It is made from a men's button down shirt and is lined with white twill.

Contest is open NOW until 10 pm CST TODAY when comments will be closed. Contest is open to US and Canada residents only.

Damask Diva Designs Giveaway

sweetstreats

Hi everyone, this is Monica from Damask Diva Designs! I opened my Etsy store in May 2008 after realizing that damask was starting to become insanely popular, and I had a love for damask since that was my wedding “theme”. When my friends see damask items, they usually think of me, and I find that really awesome. I do have a love for damask that is probably a bit overboard to some people, but I find it to be a pattern I fall in love with over and over again.

letter2

I started off with mostly offering candle wraps, but eventually I started incorporating damask table numbers and damask letters. Basically, I look at items that are plain and I try to think of how I can damask-ify them. Yes, that’s a word! ;-)

polka3

Today’s giveaway item is a set of wraps from my store! You can pick from any of my black/white votive wraps, which means you have a ton of choices.

Also, I’ll be giving 10% off all purchases this week as long as you put “KNET Special” in the notes to seller box. Discount will be refunded via PayPal.

Good luck!

MopTopMaven Giveaway

ladybug 1

Hello, I am Melanie- the designer and creator behind MopTopMaven, your source for marvelous handcrafted hair accessories. I’ve been creating all sorts of crafts and artwork for 30 years - as soon as I could hold a crayon by myself. As a little girl, my mother embellished barrettes for me to wear to match my outfits. When I became a mother of a little girl, I wanted my daughter to enjoy such creations, and so I started collecting ribbons and embellishments and the collection became overwhelming!

clips 027

MopTopMaven's most unique pieces are the woven ribbon snap clips, modeled on the braided barrettes I sported in the 80's. I enjoy designing clippies using little bows and embellishments. And I was challenged by the women purchasing my items to create something they could wear too – and so I created button snap clips that have been a very popular choice. Some of my favorite items have been the custom orders I’ve taken for a special accessory for a birthday girl, party favors and back-to-school outfits. Look for headbands debuting soon!

Giveaway item:

A set of Wild One Woven Ribbon Snap Clips - choice of clear beaded center or silver rhinestone center (photo depicts bead)

Embellished Bayou Giveaway

 

IMG_1792

Embellished Bayou is your source for beautiful custom home decor and gifts.  I specialize in handmade and embellished products perfect for gifts, home accents, or party/wedding favors. I started making my personalized products over a year ago when I needed a customized gift for a friend but didn't want to pay the high prices of a boutique. I have always had a love for all things crafty! I often see things for sale in stores and think "I can make that!" I try to take ordinary things and make them extraordinary...I'm always getting inspirations for new crafts so you'll find a wide variety of unique items in my Etsy shop. Many of my pieces are one of a kind, so no two things are ever exactly alike.

IMG_1675

My frames are all handpainted and adorned with rhinestones, bows, authentic vintage jewelry or buttons, or a fun silk flower. My antique tins are also handpainted and embellished with rhinestones. All the frames and tins can be customized with whatever color, design or personalization you choose!

mono soaps small
My soaps are all made in small batches by my mother using natural ingredients. All the soaps are vegetable or mineral based, therefore, no animal products are used. Soaps are available in a variety of scents and make great party favors and hostess gifts.

I am giving away one 6"x6" handpainted antique tin ceiling tile.  The tile has been painted deep brown and dry brushed with gold.  A handstamped  gold and pearlized fleur de lis accented with Swarovski crystals adorns the center.   The tin hangs from a double satin ribbon hanger so it is the perfect addition to a wreath, front door, or wall.  Other designs are also available for purchase in my Etsy shop.
