Think Pink, Inc and May's First Thursday
01/05/2012

Think Pink, Inc, co- founded by our own Crissie McDowell, will be pairing up with the Idaho Indie Works Boutique this First Thursday, May 6th, to help raise money to fight the war against breast cancer. Many of our boutique members will be offering discounts on various items in the store with proceeds going to the organization. Think Pink t-shirts and aprons will be for sale outside of the boutique so get yours then and show your support.

Idaho Indie Works Boutique will also be hosting the first Meet and Greet. This month's featured artists are Steven Dexter of Innovative Designs and Sarah Christensen of 52 Freckles. Make sure to stop by and say hello to these two talented people.

Boise Beanie Company. This is the lovely prize that Sara is giving to one lucky person:

Artist's bio: Sara was raised in a covered wagon by her artistic, sheepherding father and her very industrious, craft goddess mother. She enjoys eating, drinking, sleeping, breathing, musicating, babbling and most definitely crocheting.

Her love of all things fiber began in a past life. But she only recently discovered her hidden talent that is crochet when she took a class to make a hat for her daughter, Fiona. She hasn’t put the hook down since.

She currently resides in the beautiful city of Boise, Idaho where she is the owner/designer for Boise Beanie Co., a fun line of handmade hats and modern crocheted accessories.

Description of item: Reminiscent of the 1920's cloche style hat but with an updated flair. Fun colors and crocheted flowers make these beanies great for girls of every age.

Handmade with 100% cotton yarn in a soft, baby pink color accented with a bright white flower and finished with a scalloped edging.

The Rules of the Give-Away:

1. Please visit Boise Beanie Company's Etsy shop and have a look around then leave us a comment on which of Sara's items you like the best and why. Please make sure to include your E-mail or Etsy shop name so we know how to get in touch with you.

2. The give-away will end June 23rd and the winner announced shortly after.

3. Only one entry per person, please.

PUT YOUR TAXES TO GOOD USE

Local businesses in community centers require comparatively little infrastructure investment and make more efficient use of public services.

BUY WHAT YOU WANT (NOT WHAT SOMEONE ELSE WANTS YOU TO BUY)

A marketplace of tens of thousands of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long term.

ENCOURAGE LOCAL PROSPERITY

A growing body of economic research shows that in an increasingly homogenized world, entrepreneurs and skilled workers are more likely to invest and settle in communities that preserve their one-of-a-kind businesses and distinctive character.

So, the next time you need to find a unique gift or want to eat out, think of visiting locally owned businesses.

This past Friday Etsy turned 5 years old. To celebrate, they threw a world wide craft party. Groups all over the world participated in crafting together and promoting handmade. Our group in Boise made it on to Etsy's Top 50 list for the most people who signed up to come so Etsy sent us a very nice package of goodies for the party.

Here are some of the highlights from Friday's crafting goodness.

Wooo! Party!

The welcome table with some of the fun stuff that Etsy sent us, including these...

button buttons,

a tote bag,

and a make your own crafting fortune teller.

As you can see, we had a good turn out and everyone had fun visiting the different craft stations like ...

the mini bunting table

and the glass painting station.

There was also a screen printing table, a scrabble tile bookmark table, a paper craft area, a raffle for t-shirts, and a supply swap. If you missed the Etsy birthday party, stay tuned to see what we have planned for First Thursday!

A special thanks to Aimee Nord who helped take some of these photos.

I'm happy to announce that Sandra is the winner of this month's give away featuring Boise Beanie Co. Congratulations!

Check it out here!

It's another month and that means that it's time for another give away. This month's featured artist is Reni from Knit Girl in Idaho and this is what one lucky winner will receive:

Your choice of personalized

stitch markers or wine charms

About the artist:

Hi, my name is Reni LeBard and I have an Etsy shop called Knit Girl in Idaho. I have been married for 23 years and my husband and I have two teenage boys, ages 17 and 13. Our family moved to Idaho from Seattle five years ago this month, but having been born and raised in Alaska, Idaho is much more like home to me than Washington ever was!

I learned how to knit when I was a little girl, but didn't pick up the craft again until my kids were in school. I started out knitting only garter stitch scarves and other novice patterns, however, it didn't take long until I was bored with those projects. Now my all-time favorite project to knit is socks. They are portable, challenging and you can make a pair of socks with one skein of yarn. There are so many free patterns available that I don't think I can ever tire of knitting socks.

In October 2009, I started Knit Girl in Idaho out of necessity because I wanted to make and use my own stitch markers when knitting my socks. Stitch markers are used while knitting socks, mittens, hats, shawls or other patterns that require you to keep track of your stitches. Some people use scraps of yarn, but stitch markers are a fun way to adorn any knitting project, but also make great gifts! I belong to an online knitting and crochet social network, called Ravelry and the gals on Ravelry saw my stitch markers and started requesting sets for themselves! After a few short weeks, these same women encouraged me to open an Etsy shop, which I did. It wasn't long before my non-knitting family and friends wanted to support me, which is why I also sell wine charms in my shop!

Knit Girl in Idaho is where you can find unique, handmade stitch markers and wine charms! My one-of-a-kind, keepsake items are created using virtually any picture, personal design, personal logo, and even some short sayings. My wine charms make the perfect keepsake wedding favor or a treasured gift for the bride and groom, as well as an inexpensive hostess gift for bbq's, showers and cocktail parties! All of my items are sold in sets of 2, 4 or 6, plus I have wholesale & bulk pricing available.

Why are you a member of IIW?

One of my first goals when I opened my Etsy shop was to connect with other creative people in my community, so I joined the Idaho Indie Works team! It's wonderful to have a group of experienced, local Etsy sellers to chat with and glean invaluable insight from, but I'm more interested in cultivating new friendships with the men and women who are members of the IIW team.

About the prize:

For this blog give away, I am donating a set of 6 Personalized Wine Charms or 6 Personalized Stitch Markers, winners choice!

Here are a few simple rules for entering the give away:

1. Please visit Knit Girl in Idaho's Etsy shop and have a look around then leave us a comment on which of Reni's items you like the best and why. Please make sure to include your E-mail or Etsy shop name so we know how to get in touch with you.

2. The give-away will end July 17th and the winner announced shortly after.

3. Only one entry per person, please.
