Field Trip: the Rebuilding Center PDX
Tea Time April 20th, 2007
Field Trip!
Corinna(Piddix) gave us the most wonderful tour of the Rebuilding Center - Thank you so much!!! This was awesome, informative and inspirational. I even picked up this super cool wooden screen that looks great with my mobiles hanging in it. It makes a fabulous display for vending! isn't it sweet! It was a steal at only $5 (there is a hinge broken - but I love it none the less!)

Skill Share #1
Tea Time April 12th 2007
This tea time was so much fun! Danielle (MissPurl) showed us how to make these cute little boxes. I've been making them ever since! They are adorable - and the most fantastic use of old pictures!
I showed how to make greeting cards out of old calendars. It was a good time had by all. There is a post about it with a great skill share if you are interested in learning how to make either of these projects!
Recycling Old Calenders
Act 1: Greeting Cards
Act 2: Little Boxes

The First Tea Time
Tea Time March 14th 2007First ever Tea Time. What a blast. It was myself, Ryan (LittlePutBooks) and Mary (PrettyThingsJewelry).
The story is this: I love tea - I drink it all day. And I love Etsy. I saw the EtsyLabs has a Tea Time there in NY and jealousy got me thinking... we could have one here in Portland! And Ryan is my most amazing friend and Etsy Cheerleader - she urged me to post on the forums for a Portland Tea Time... that is how it all began.
My boyfriend is tired of hearing about Etsy (although to his credit, he has his own Etsy account- for shopping - and he buys me nice gifts like fudge) - so its a great pleasure to have get-togethers with other Etsy sellers who also find it a sheer pleasure to chit chat for hours about Etsy.
I am a glass artist/instructor, and at the studio I work in N. Portland one of the big crafting tables is covered in orange rubber. How fantastically Etsy is that!
The first tea time was wonderful!
