Among the wonderful things about Etsy (that place where I sell my stuff, pay attention people) are that there are teams. As part of the addiction I have join several. They are all great teams, and my local Seattle Etsy Rain team, while I have not been as involved as I would like to, is really active and has regular meetup events around the Puget Sound. Hi EtsyRain! :)
Another team I am in is the Etsy Beadweavers. It's not easy to sell beadweaving because it tends to be expensive considering the many hours, weeks, months, or even years that it takes to complete a fine work. The beadweavers blog and team are a great way to share the love of itty bitty beads with the world. There are some fantastic artists out there and I admire all the great work that people create. (Wanna see the Etsy Beadweavers work on Etsy? Search EBW)
Each month the Beadweavers have a challenge based on a theme. While I love to create complex weaves (while my wrist will allow it) with intricate patterns and classy, elaborate designs... the theme this month was "humor". Now I'm a silly person, my people know that about me. And humor is something I maintain as part of my own self preservation among the busy insanity of things. So this month, my weave was not so classy or intricate or elaborate, cause I was going for funny.
