Hello Beadweavers.  Do you sell your beadwoven creations on Etsy?  Do you feel lost and alone in the huge Etsy world?  Don’t know where to turn to with your Etsy or beading questions?  Need somewhere to share your trials and triumphs?  You should join the EBW Street Team. 

EBW is a group of bead artists that market their beadwoven creations on Etsy.  Each one uses thousands of tiny seed beads to make beautiful creations ranging from jewelry to bead art. These creations come in all sizes and shapes.  I am really amazed at the numerous variations that beadwoven creations can come in.  Some beadweavers make creations they have designed themselves and others, like me, make creations from patterns that others have designed.  You don’t have to be a designer to join this group, just love beadweaving and sell them on Etsy.

Every month, EBW has a challenge with a specific theme.  Of course, you have to be a member to join these challenges.  There are so many beautiful entries every month.  It is so hard to pick just one when voting starts.

We have a Yahoo discussion group, a blog and a flickr photo album for members.  We also have discussions in the forums dealing with treasuries that our members have items featured in, what we have been Goodies and News….showing off our goodies we have just posted to our Etsy store and our new blog posts, and last but not least our entries into the next Challenge.

I just joined this group the middle of May but have learned so much about how to improve my Etsy store.  It is a learning process but one well worth the effort.

EBW Mission Statement:

The EBW Team is made up of bead artists who aspire to successfully market their beadwoven creations on Etsy.com and elsewhere. As such the EBW Team has two areas of focus: Practical business help, including sales promotion by networking, marketing and creating awareness of beadweaving as an art.

Artistic inspiration, including instruction and encouragement."
