Proceeds of Promise


During this holiday season, members of the EcoEtsy Team are joining together to donate 10% of sales occuring Sunday, December 7th through Sunday, December 14th, to Heifer International.


With the goal of ending hunger, Heifer International is a project that helps impoverished families worldwide become more self-reliant through the gift of livestock and training in their care. It works in the "teach a man to fish" philosophy, and has helped in more than 50 countries. The amount of money raised will determine our actual gift to Heifer.org. Some of the possible gifts we can buy with our donation are Honeybees for $20, a pig for $120, flock of geese, chicks, or ducks $20, a llama for $150, or a heifer for $500.


At the end of the week, the final donation purchases will be posted on the EcoEtsy team blog as well as this one. I will be donating 10% of sales from both of my shops to this great cause. Here is a complete list of participating shops:


1. Lolaness Design

Another New Product!


Just in time for Christmas! New Christmas Card Clothesline & Clips! I hope to take some good shots of this new product in action over the weekend and post it for sale in my Etsy shop! But just as you would imagine you hang the clothesline in your home, along a banister or mantel perhaps, and use the decorated clips to clip your holiday greetings to the line.

Maine Team Holiday Hunt

The fabulous Etsy Maine Team, to which I am a proud member, is hosting a Holiday Hunt. This fun little contest runs from December 1 - 5, and if you'd like to play along you could win one of 20 fabulous prizes!

Let me tell you how...all you need to do is search through the listings of the following shops and find 15 listings with a snapshot of this bear:



Then just convo the list of listings where you found the cute little critter to AdroitJewelers. You only need to enter once because your name will remain in the entries for the entire week. And if you find all 38 bears, your name will be entered 3 times in the drawing. Four prizes will be awarded daily at 9 pm Etsy time.
