Inspiring Quote - Etsy Summit in Bristol - Small Actions

Hey everyone,

Rather weary today after a super busy weekend at the U.K Etsy Summit in Bristol which I attended. It was so much fun and I came back with a note book full of ideas and feeling inspired. Realise that I missed yesterday's quote of the week post which I normally share an inspiring quote. I was so inspired the whole weekend listening to what all the other U.K teams have been up to. The U.K Etsy community is growing really fast and there are some wonderful established teams as well as some fantastic emerging ones.

One quote from the weekend which really inspired me was during a talk by Erin who is from Etsy in Canada. She was talking about the Etsy community and collaboration and it was one of the presentations which really stuck with me

During her talk on community she said....

and then used this youtube clip to demonstrate what she meant. It is well worth a watch, not only is it a beautiful clip but also has a fantastic message.



If you are interested in what happened at the U.K summit please keep checking back on my blog as I will be posting more updates.

Have a great week and hope that some of you will be able to do a small action which will make a big difference to someone else this week whatever that may be.

Inspirational quote of the week - Wayne Gretzky

Hello everyone :) ,

Happy Monday!!! Feels very strange here in England as it is so dark and cold and there is a proper wintery chill in the air. I am starting to get really excited about Christmas now. The light have been going up in town ready to be switched on for December and I am crafting like crazy at the moment so I can be prepared for my Christmas craft fairs which are coming up and also have enough stock in my shop for the Christmas rush. My blog has had loads of views from Russia recently so a big hello to all my Russian followers and readers :). I have also had a lot of views in my shop from Russia and so I have decided to try and make it easier for my Russian shoppers and added Russia to the shipping locations at the bottom of some of my items. I am always happy to ship worldwide but not all of my items have all the locations I ship to listed (please contact me for a quote). So far all my earrings now have a shipping price to Russia to make it easier for my Russian shoppers :) hope this helps. I will hopefully add shipping to Russia on all my tea cups as well but please contact me in the meantime for quote :)

 Quote of the week for this week I was really pleased to stumble across and I thought it was a really great and inspiring quote. It is by Wayne Gretzky who was a Canadian ice hockey player and one of the greatest players ever.

His quote is both true for sport and for life in general. I hope this quote inspires you all this week :)

" You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take."
