March 2016 Team Update

It has been a while since our DE Team has been buzzing with activity (like - a long time!)

So we have some team members that are going to be helping keep things updated and hopefully some new ideas for blog posts to keep the general public updated on things that are going on in and around Delaware and the local art scene.

First on our list was a quick update of our Shop Local page here on our blog.

So far we have confirmed the 2016 dates of some Arts and Craft Festivals (we are not into direct marketing shows - but more into artists that make their own work and are selling it).

If you have any Art and Craft shows local (they can be just outside of DE in MD, NJ, PA - anyplace you could get to for a day trip) or are a DE Etsy team member showing outside our region, please put a link to the show in the comments to this blog post so we can add it to our page.

And if you are a buyer that loves to go to local shops for artwork, antiques, or supplies - please add links to those treasured locations in order to help support those shops!

Shop Small Shop Local Small Business Saturday

You've been hearing about Small Business Saturday for a few years now.

Totally a marketing ploy to get you to help support your local communities and small businesses by keeping your hard earned money going round in places you live...

It's a very good idea to try to market for our communities!

With our Delaware Etsy Team being based on local artists and sellers in the area that have Etsy shops, we are very pleased to announce that Etsy.com has expanded an option to all of us to show off where you can find our work in person - it's called ETSY LOCAL.

This is the kind of positive movement we love to see come out of the Etsy community.
So get out to wherever you are locally and help support your local small businesses!
