Have you ever sent a crafty pal of yours a link to some cool crafty thing you came across on the internet and just had to share? Do you agree that if your co-worker or employee was telling you about an awesome quilted car snuggy, for instance, you’d be very intrigued if not somewhat frustrated until you actually got to see it for yourself? Twitter is the perfect platform for trading links and sharing inspiration, so for that reason alone you should join the party. And you’ll remain in Tweetdom, because at some point not to far into the future you’ll realize the potential Twitter has as an integral part of your business marketing strategy.

I just added some fresh made robot art pieces to my Etsy Shop, spazmade. I just love Hambly, so when I found some rub-ons while unpacking the crate after the CHA show, I just had to put them to good use.

Of course I was sad when I picked up the very last printed issue of CRAFT Magazine. I’ve loved this magazine from the beginning and have been lucky enough to get to read every issue. I had a ball at O’Reilly Media’s (CRAFT Magazine’s parent company) Maker Faire a few years ago when I was lucky enough to set up and work at the C&T Publishing booth there. I also attended Natalie Zee Drieu’s demo-nar on the Indie Craft movement at CHA last year and of course seized the opportunity to chit-chat with all the CRAFT Magazine peeps in attendance. CRAFT Magazine and Craftzine.com really deserve a post all their own right now, but I can’t write the sad and lamenting post I’m supposed to upon hearing the news about #10 being the very last printed issue. And there are two reasons for this: |
