Crafty people unite! Around the world, today was Etsy Craft Party Day. Here in Portland, the party was organized by Erin R., a member of Etsy PDX and owner of Etsy shop
lil e creations, and hosted by Maria Raleigh, owner of
collage (our favorite local art and craft supply shop!) I enjoyed myself as a volunteer helping at the craft tables all day. Erin did an amazing job organizing the crafts, Maria donated lots of raffle prizes, and both did an excellent job getting the word out - we were packed! Picture time!
