We Made the Etsy Spotlight Blog: A Well Deserved Treat

Recently, our sculpture “365 Days” was included in the Etsy Spotlight Blog. Pretty sweet considering the number of visitors the Etsy blog normally receives. You can see the blog post here: http://www.etsy.com/storque/spotlight/etsy-finds-a-well-deserved-treat-8193/

marymary was the author of the post and described the collection with the following paragraph.

I’m the type of gal who saves up for a single statement piece at a time. I’ll ruminate over it for weeks or months on end while squirreling away funds for the worthy indulgence. I can’t wait to share the lust-worthy finds I’ve been contemplating for a summer splurge. This Etsy Finds collection will make you feel like the queen in your midsummer night’s dream.

We’re hoping to get mentioned on the blog again though it seems to be in rare occurrence. We’ll keep trying though. New works on the way as we prepare for the Board Walk Art Show.

Blog of the New Year

As the sound of the new years bells slowly settle in the back of our heads our hands and minds are fighting the frost to keep art alive. This year we plan to take a new approach to our blogging. We will still keep up with our traditional posts showing off new copper work and updates about shows and events. Though, we want to focus on not only the art that we create but the art that is created in our community by friends and new acquaintances alike as well. As our fiends at AltDaily [altdaily.com] seem to point out on an almost daily basis, Hampton Roads is in need of a sustainable artist community!

Not that we are lacking talent and people with a sense of culture rippling through their veins, it is just not big enough yet. So in hopes that we can keep ourselves creative and inspire those around us we will be posting our attempts at poetry, short films, musical experiments, more artist documentaries, and various 2D artwork. If you have a project that helps us to think or question or that just simply allows us to take a step back and appreciate all the sights and sounds around us please let us know about it.

Stay tuned for what we, and what you, come up with!

Let’s not let the area go stale this winter, until we meet again,

Shout Out Sunday

It’s always nice when other art and craft folk blog about us.  Check out Lindy’s blog where she covers a variety of her personal obsessions: paper, architecture, design, event planning, photography, and Etsy.

Lindy included us in her Shout Out Sunday.

Thanks Lindy.
