Etsy logo This Thursday, join me in the Etsy Virtual Labs as I talk about shopping green on Etsy!

In conjunction with my Guest Curatorial post on the Storque, I will be sidling up to my computer to share some awesome Etsy finds that are both amazing and green to boot.

As lead writer of Crafting a Green World I have met some wonderful people making beautiful and eco-friendly wares. I hope to highlight more of these eco-crafters and how to tread lighter on the Earth.

So tune in on Thursday March 26 at 6 p.m. 7 pm EST.

Busy as a Bee

Beehives

I’ve been away from this space, being busy in others. Check out what I’ve been up too!

>> Most recently I was a Guest Curator over at Etsy for Crafting a Green World. It was much fun highlighting the great green creations that these crafters make. Ha! Say that five times fast.

>> I also got a sneak peek at the new Maya Lin exhibit, now open at the Corcoran. You can read my review over at DCist.

>> I’ve also been organizing and planning and emailing, going into the home stretch for Hello Craft’s Summit of Awesome.
