Etsy in Austin for South by Southwest!

The folks from Etsy headquarters in Brooklyn have arrived here in Austin for the awesome SXSW event they've been planning! It starts tomorrow & continues through Sunday, at Venue 222 on Sixth Street. Two full days of craft demos, music & more! See the full schedule of events on the Etsy in Austin event page.

The EtsyAustin street team has partnered up with Etsy for this event & we'll have a fabulous display of our work ("The Wall of Wow") at the event. I'm on the committee for that & have seen the setup, so I can tell you first-hand that it will indeed wow you! More event info, plus our team members' guide to Austin, on the EtsyAustin blog.

We'll also have a Meet EtsyAustin booth and the coolest photo booth in town. Seriously, you do NOT want to miss getting your picture taken with Babsy the larger-than-life, mustache-sportin', tiny hat-wearin', cat. Saddle up!

I got to meet many of the Etsy folks last night at a meet n' greet they hosted for our team leaders at Polvo's Mexican restaurant. It was super fun to meet them & talk plans for this weekend. It's going to be craftacularly fun - hope you'll come out & see us!

Fun Freebie: A Snuggle Herd Dot-to-Dot

I've been hard at work on an activity book that I hope to have ready this spring. It will have coloring pages, dot-to-dots, complete-the-picture pages & more! I wanted to share my first completed page with you, and would love to hear what you think. If you have any kiddos at your disposal, please print this out for them & let me know how they like it.

How to print: Use the "Download the Original size" link on this Flickr photo download page. The "original size" file is sized to fit on an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper. Enjoy!
