During the month of November, the Team members of the SPSTeam on Etsy were invited to post about the people and things they are grateful for. Every day, many people took the time to write very meaningful and heartwarming messages on our Team Forum!
We are thrilled to present a selection of some of the nicest, most sincere messages posted during the '30 Days of Thanksgiving' initiative. You can also see gorgeous handmade and vintage items sold by these team members in their awesome Etsy shops.

shop. Having a daughter that lives 1600 miles away

our stats, our listings and our future plans!"

PRESENTED TO YOU BY OUR LEADER :
My name is Diana. Self-taught seamstress of clothing and household decor, I start with inspiring patterns and modify them to my taste. I'm hooked on fabric accessories! Soft and washable! Great fun fabrics inspire me! I love to explore new styles and designs! Handmade is a process that should show itself in the finished product and adds to its beauty. Custom requests are welcome!
A lovely experience! I looked forward to each day when I read the posts of gratitude! Such great team members!
ReplyDeleteLovely finds:-)
ReplyDeleteI really like that thread !! It was nice to slow down and take the time to write about good, meaningful things... It pulls me away from the "busy busy business" and helped me connect in a new way with my Etsy teammates! Nice!
