The Etsy Twitter Team is throwing an eco-party, and everyone is invited!
From July 21st to July 27th, the authority on Twitter for all things handmade, will be offering a summer feast of cool tips, suggestions, awesome handcrafted genius and a scavenger hunt with lots of eco-friendly prizes for the winner on the team’s blog, http://etsytwitter.blogspot.com.
“People don’t always realize how easy it can be to ‘go green’. Our goal is to show them not only the beauty of handmade items that reuse, recycle and repurpose things which would otherwise have been discarded, but also to share tips and suggestions for eco-friendly habits in everyday life,” says Etsy Twitter Team Co-Leader Kristen Evans, owner of FirebirdHouse Designs.
The team, which uses Twitter to expand its reach to a global audience, thinks that “Going Green” is far more than just a sales pitch. “We really want to dispel the myth that items that are ‘green’ have to be expensive or time-consuming to find, and encourage people to think of ways they can conserve the most valuable resource we have, which is the Earth itself. This is one way to really turn people on to the idea of buying responsibly and learning how to find items which support, rather than harm, our natural resources,” says Vickie Porter, the team’s leader and the artist/owner behind the recycled domino jewelry of InMyHeadStudios.
She feels that supporting green initiatives are part of meeting the Etsy Twitter Team's mission to become the authority on Twitter for all things handmade. “The handmade lifestyle is an important piece of the eco-puzzle and we want to be sure and share that with the rest of the world, on Twitter and off.”
