New crafty places to visit
Just a quick post now to fill you in on some of my favourite crafters. I hope you've all heard of Craftster the ultimate community for crafters looking to show off their wokr and receive tips. If not run, run as fast as you can to join up there where themed challenges are often occuring and everyone is really friendly.
Now a quick run down of some of my favourite crafters (again all women sorry chaps). Able Mable is always full of craft creating stories from a woman who runs a house, a business and a blog as well as helping her mother out with her craft enterprise. There are lots of signs, purses and light switch cover pictures but the best thing about the blog is the energetic voice behind it.
A coule of artists now for thos eof you who like to draw and paint. Both Razorberries and pkillustrations have their own styles (so different I think you'll agree) and both where really friendly whenever I contacted them. I think one of my favourite things about Etsy and craft communities is that you get to see new, surprising artists that you would never usually be able to find.
Weirdbuglady who I absolutely could not love more has a great blog. She makes large insect and animal soft sculptures and is an Applied Zoology student so she always has something interesting to say. At the moment she's busy making the most of summer and if you want confirmation that there is no bounds to her creativity I should pop on over now to see what she's made. She really shows that beauty can be found in every aspect of our earth.
Obviously I'm not going to leave you without showing off my wares a little bit. My Etsy shop is in full flourish mode at the moment and I'd love to know what you think of my creations.
It will be my final post soon and I just wanted to say how much fun I've had being a hostess here. I hope you've enjoyed my chattering (in real life I'm more of a listener so blogging is kind of a nice way to get my thoughts out in the world). The challenge is coming up next and I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with :)
I did!
XO,
Melba

Check your link for the etsy shop? It looks like it wants to go to both the blog and the shop, so instead returns a 404 not found.
