One of the best things about Etsy is that new shops are added all the time, like this one ChiliMango. Emily recently started selling jewlery on Etsy, although she's been a member on Etsy from the beginning.
Based out of California she finds inspiration in the warm tropics and nature. I was impressed with the unique construction of this necklace - orange Japanese seed beeds and a yellow canary faceted lucite bead are strung on turquoise waxed cotton cord, twisted to make up the fun focal pendant.
Priced at $10 it's a great gift for a friend or for yourself!
In addition to her day job and Etsy business, Emily also created a social network called "Do You Etsy?" http://www.doyouetsy.com/ - a friendly place where Etsyians can promote their work, trade tips and support one another. It's a great resource for sellers, my favorite part of this network is the video section. Here are some of the great videos you'll find:
- Indie5Collective Channel for Etsy Artist - daily videos where you can learn about Etsy communities, meet other sellers and get tips for starting your business.
- How to videos for promoting your shop with myspace, facebook and twitter.
- Etsy Lab videos - packaging, photos and more
Lots of luck to Emily and her new business!!
