Of Flying Birds and Friendship

One of the best things about being an Etsy seller is the relationships you develop with other Etsy sellers.  I have been very fortunate to get to know quite a few very talented and completely nice people through these connections on Etsy.  Many of the improvements in my shop since I started in October 2010 have been developed through feedback from other Etsy sellers.  And there is no way of counting how many of my sales have been a direct result of another seller's hard work in putting together a stellar collection that has graced a front page on Etsy.  I am truly grateful to everyone who has helped my shop along the way!

I recently worked with Danielle of HandyMaiden to develop a couple of custom stamps to be used on her shop's packaging.  To say that I was excited about getting to work with her on this project would be an understatement!  If you are an Etsy regular, it is highly likely that you already recognize Danielle's work as it is truly original and absolutely beautiful.  Her shop was recently selected by Etsy as the Featured Shop, an honor she truly deserved. 

Here's a look at the stamps I carved for Danielle.  I love that one of the first things that people will see when they purchase one of Danielle's beautiful necklaces is a stamp of an image I carved for her shop.  It is truly flattering to be asked to be a part of Danielle's shop in this way.  Thank you Danielle

All packaged up and ready to send to HandyMaiden!
