I make and sell stone cabochons.
![]()
Favorite website(s) aside from Etsy?
There are websites other than Etsy??! Oh. let's see . . . Facebook is fun, but I want to share this. It's Astronomy Picture of the Day. Nifty and informative.
http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html
Do you craft yourself? If so, what do you like to make?
In addition to lapidary, I also crochet.
Please tell us one thing that nobody would know about you.
I own a 10 inch Dobsonian telescope - and 4 smaller ones.

Get To Know - LivinOnTheFringe
By Michelle of Evie's Tool Emporium
Tell us about your store.
Linens and Laurel is the store of my dreams! As a child, I fell in love with the chests full of my great-great-great grandmother’s sewing notions from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Now I sell vintage style ribbon loop fringe made on machines from that era.
What kind of supplies do you offer for crafters and artisans?
Although ribbon loop fringe is my main supply offering, I do have tassels, appliques and beaded trims for sale periodically. They are priced very affordably and, unlike the ribbon loop which is always available, “when they are gone, they are gone”. Finally, I am always looking for vintage sewing notions, fabric and tools. Some of those I share for sale.
Is there any particular item you sell that you like to use regularly when you're creating?
I like to use the ribbon loop, of course! It makes great flowers and flower centers. Add a vintage or interesting pin to the center and done! Of course, it is precious on pillows, bags and lamps, too.
When did you open your store and what inspired you to do so?
I first started selling vintage crafting items online in 1998. It was a perfect fit when I had to be available to drive my son to school and lots of activities.
What do you offer your customers that the larger stores can't?
Personalized customer service and quality control are the most important aspects of my business. I answer my emails and phone calls promptly. And, each item is measured and packed by me for shipping so I know the product is perfect.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I like to walk local trails and shop yard sales and thrift stores in my spare time.
What's a question you wish I would've asked? And please answer that question.
What was your latest antique/vintage sewing acquisition?
Ooops! Unfair of me! You will have to visit my blog in a couple of days to find out. It is SO a secret and something I had once, sold, and now have again.
What are ten fun facts about you?
1.I love mid-century modern homes, and live in one that has been updated.
2.I love Mad Men.
3.If I didn’t know about mid-century modern, Belle Epoch would be my favorite era. So I live MCM and create BE style.
4.Within the last five years, we lived in Dallas, TX; Stowe-HGTV Dream Home,Vermont and now in the East Bay, CA! After six months here, we are still time zone challenged.
5.New Orleans has been our “home” base for 20 years, but we are actually New Yorkers.
6.I learned to really cook while we were stranded for 4 long winters in Vermont.
7.We rarely eat out. The food is better at home. (see above.)
8.I dream daily of moving back to Winter Park, FL. It’s basically New York with a great climate.
9.I read and comment on lots of blogs. It keeps me updated and provides a marketing tool because it’s tough getting out there as a little specialty shop.
10.My mission is to support women owned small businesses.

Get To Know - Sew Many Diapers
By Michelle of Evie's Tool Emporium
What is your Etsy shop name?
Sew Many Diapers
How did you come up with that name?
I thought it sounded cute for a play on fabrics used to make cloth diapers. My husband hated it when I first told him about it, but I get lots of compliments and he admits now that I picked a good one!
What sort of crafting supplies do you sell?
I sell fabrics, notions, and patterns mostly geared towards making cloth diapers.
Favorite website(s) aside from Etsy?
I love reading discussion boards about cloth diapering and I am a new member of the SewingMamas discussion board also, as I'm trying to branch out from diapers to children's clothing as well.
Do you craft yourself?
If so, what do you like to make? I love to craft, but I never seem to find the time! The cobbler's kids, right? I am always finding things that "need" to be done on the computer, mostly to actively market my business and keep it updated and fresh.
Please tell us one thing that nobody would know about you.
I was once a guest on the Jerry Springer Show (no, I didn't take off any piece of clothing and I did not get into a fist fight...it was a LONG time ago, and I hope the footage never resurfaces!)
What is your favorite thing to make for dinner?
Spaghetti! Easy and fast to make, not to mention cheap...and I know that every member of the family will eat it without complaining!
What goals do you have for your shop over the next year?
I'd like to get to the point that my business is doing more than just supporting itself. Being in the black is great, but all this work that I do is not yet putting any money towards paying our household bills and I'd like to be able to brag that I work at home AND make a profit doing it! I'd also like to expand to finished goods, but if I can't even sew up an outfit for one of my children, I doubt I could ship up an entire line to fill up a shop...but a girl can dream, right?
If you sell on other venues, where else can we find your items?
I have 2 regular websites where I sell basically the same types of items: http://www.sewmanydiapers.com/ and http://www.sewmanypatterns.com/. I have a third site set up at http://www.clothtots.com/ (and an Etsy to go with it) which I think is a great looking site, but alas, nothing is stocked in there yet. At least when I do get the sewing mojo going again, I will have the site up and ready to go.

How To Make A Leather Key Chain Using A Leather Punch Set
By Michelle of Evie's Tool Emporium
Last week I shared with you that every once in awhile you stumble upon a great opportunity to partner with someone that leads to the unexpected. Almost two years ago via the internet I met Dotty from Totally Tutorials. She has a wonderful blog site that features tutorials made by many talented, creative artists.
I discovered that she was looking for supply sellers to offer supplies in exchange for a tutorial. I jumped at the opportunity. One of the exchanges Evie's Tool Emporium participated in was with ArtMind. The supply that we gave in exchange was a Leather Punch Set - 6 Size. Mitsy created a second tutorial for us that is equally as fun as the first one. This one is how to make leather key chain that is not only a quick easy read, but also shows how a new tool can change the creative process!
If you are a supply seller or an artist please feel free to contact Dotty. She is wonderful to work with and I know your experience will be as positive as mine! A huge thank you to Mitsy for her tutorial!

Get To Know - Thôt Design
By Michelle of Evie's Tool Emporium
What is your Etsy shop name?
Thôt Design
How did you come up with that name?
Thôt Design is as in “thought” or “thinking”. I’m always thinking, not necessarily about super important stuff but the wheels are always turning (sometimes to a fault). Most of the time I’m thinking about design – floral design, interior design, fashion design, or creative design in the sense of craft or handmade. I’m a floral designer & décor stylist by day. My company is called thôt floral | design | décor. In November 2010, the online Etsy shop, thôt design, opened in an effort to reduce some standing holiday inventory. There weren’t any other shops offering Colorful Ashley Spruce Wreaths or Deco Poly Mesh at the time. This small gap in the handmade supply market gave me the opportunity to give Etsy a try.
What sort of crafting supplies do you sell?
Products include: Deco Poly Mesh :: Geo Mesh :: Art Mesh :: Wreath Forms :: Deco Flex Tubing :: Ribbon :: Double Faced Satin Ribbon :: Wired Specialty Ribbon :: Chiffon Ribbon :: Colorful Ashley Spruce Wreaths :: Seasonal Accents & Décor and more.
Favorite website(s) aside from Etsy?
http://www.Twitter.com - @thotdesign I love twitter because with my attention span, 144 characters is right up my alley! http://www.pinterest.com/ Love, love, love this site. It’s so creative and being a very visual person, all the colorful photographs really keep me interested.
Do you craft yourself? If so, what do you like to make?
I have a tiny obsession with vintage and estate finds which has led to some repurposed or upcycled crafts. I enjoy paper crafts and scrapbooking but haven’t done much lately. I do some beading, sewing, extremely light knitting & crocheting. I dabble in needlepoint and tatting from time to time. Truth be told, I just like crafting in general and I love to learn new techniques. I have another Etsy Shop, ReStylista, where I have some cute frames, wardrobe embellishments & repurposed neckties. ReStylista has a blog as well http://www.restylista.co/.
What is your favorite thing to make for dinner?
A reservation! I don’t really enjoy cooking but I like to bake so I guess we could have chocolate cake!
What goals do you have for your shop over the next year?
I’m currently working on some DIY kits and very excited to expand this area of business. The first kit will be “How to make a Deco Poly Mesh Wreath” to include the deco poly mesh roll, wire wreath frame, fasteners, tutorial and wreath storage box. Customers can look forward to the DIY Deco Poly Mesh Wreath Kit in the thôt design Etsy shop by the end of May. I’m also ramping up the tweeting and recently created a Facebook page. Be sure to follow ( @thotdesign ) on twitter and LIKE thôt design on Facebook.
