This week we invite you to take a peek inside Fiber and Bead Boutique, a shop creating beautiful crochet, knit and other fiber accessories, along with lovely beaded jewelry!
The shop owner's favorite form of promotion is making Etsy Treasuries, and in turn, being featured in Etsy Treasuries. The partial treasury shown below is one of Bonnie's treasuries curated earlier this month. Beautiful, isn't it? You can click the image to visit and leave a comment on the treasury.
We asked Bonnie, one of the four owners/creators of the shop, what her biggest creative inspiration is. This is what she said:
Since there are 4 of us in the shop, I can only speak for myself, but color and texture is what grabs me.
Each of the creators of the shop does different things, and Bonnie has chosen an item from each creator to showcase for this blog post. Please visit the shop to see more of what these ladies has to offer!
You can also find them on facebook here:

Something New
One of our awesome team leaders signed us up for a really great opportunity to be beta testers for something new on Etsy. Much thanks goes out to Katherine, the mother of Amy of Jewelry by Amy T, for giving us this chance to be one of the first Etsy teams to give it a try.
Introducing...Our brand new TEAM PAGE on Etsy!!!
What is a Team Page?
It's basically a landing page where we can promote our team members' shops and looks a little bit like Pinterest with "lists" of items.
If you're a member of Etsy, you might be familiar with the "list" feature, as it has been available for a little while now. Along with adding an item to your favorites, you can also create a "list" and add items to that list. Our team page is full of "lists" and we will slowly be building our lists and adding new items to the categories. Now, our team has a collection of lists to be able to share with everyone.
In other news...
We've been attempting to re-vamp our team social media pages. With all the focus on the blog, pinterest and twitter, we had completely forgotten that we also have a Team Facebook Fan Page! What's great about social media is that it offers us a way to connect and share our shops and items with even greater reach. We can connect in ways like no other. To make it a success, though, we need to start and first build our presence.
Visit our Etsy team discussion, and add your social links HERE.
Need a Shop Hop Reminder?
If you missed our monthly Shop Hop, don't worry! There will be another one next month. We always start the first week of the month and leave the linky open through at least the 10th. If you'd like to sign up to receive email reminders, please do so.
Autumn Leaves
Autumn season is about full swing now, and before we know it, winter will be upon us. Some places are already seeing snow. Let's enjoy the autumn leaves for the moment, shall we?

Isn't autumn just lovely???
Friendly Shop Feature: Ilona Paper Passion
Want to be one of our shop features? Learn more here.
* Please remember that all images are clickable links, for your viewing and shopping convenience.
This week, we invite you to meet Ilona Paper Passions! This shop offers custom made printables delivered to your e-mail, ready for printing. There are party decorations, invitations, holiday & photo cards, thank you cards - all custom designed for you and your event.
Ilona is the owner/creator, and this is what she says about facebook:
Facebook is my favorite form of promotion, because I can interact with my fans. It is not just for presenting my product; I can also share party ideas and recipes from my Blog. Some of my recipes that I include on the Facebook are perfect for a party.
Her thoughts on creative inspiration:
The biggest creative inspiration are my children and the world around them. My older son loves to play soccer and I came up with few soccer designs. Right now, I am working on the dinosaur digital kit because I see every day my younger son with them. Also, I saw my son with a robot shirt the other day and new ideas immediately flows to my mind. My imagination is constantly working:)
Last thoughts from Ilona:
In my Etsy shop I offer every invitation with free thank you card that will be customized by me as well. I specialize in party packages that include banner, cupcake toppers, gift tags etc. I offer unlimited revisions and I will work with every customer until satisfaction is achieved. I offer my designs in two languages: English and Polish. I also had orders in different languages but I needed to have exact wordings from customer and they came up perfectly. I take custom orders as well. Thank you
