"This yarn is made using a clean, no longer wanted T-shirt. I haven't pulled it into cord yet. It will be up to you how you want to attach the breaks. It's probably not an equal WPI throughout as it's hand cut, but it's close. Very eco-friendly."

Stylestance has been good to the Etsy Twitter Team members featuring several of our members over the past few months. So I thought I would support them by plugging their contest and celebrating with them.

Entries must be received by midnight this Monday, September 21st. The winner will be chosen randomly and announced on Tuesday.

Bridal Daze: For the Bridal Party Women!

Planning a wedding can be stressful because there are just some things that are out of your hands that you cannot plan, like the weather. All brides hope for a sunny not-too-hot and not-too-cold wedding day. But just in case it’s chilly or raining, your wedding party gals might need a little jacket. This is where JusShar comes in! Look how cute these are!


They are all made to order, can be color customized, take 18-21 days to complete, and comes in XS to L. See the colors here: www.JusSharDesigns.com/yarn.html

How perfect is that?! When I got married the selection of little shrugs was not so pretty! I wish I had known about JusShar! Make sure to order yours ahead of time!

Then there’s that thing I will be cautious to use my wording around. You know. "That Thing" that comes once a month. Can’t always plan for that either, ladies.

So for your minor "needed item" emergency, Abby Chase Designs has created the Incognito Tampon Wallet. It’s both functional and perfectly pretty! Keep all your needs at hand with this cute wallet! No one will be the wiser!

Bridal Daze Is Here!

In an effort to cure brides, grooms, and their families and friends of the impending "Bridal Daze" that usually occurs during wedding planning, the Etsy Twitter Team is embarking on a week-long journey to help all those affected by that “glazed over” expression when faced with so many choices.

On our blog this week you will find everything from handmade “Save the Date” cards and invitations, jewelry for the bride and attendants, candles, guest books, scrapbooks, gifts, a little food to tide you over, and thank you and note cards. It’s the one-stop-shopping location you dreamed of when you were a little girl dreaming about your wedding. (Ha! Like all of us girls did that, right?!)

After you have chosen your location and date for the wedding you will need two things: “Save the Date” cards and invitations to the big day. Here are some really great ideas for going handmade for your paper goods!!

Purple Lemon Designs

This shop has many choices for the handmade wedding. They carry personal stationery and handmade invitations as well as "Save the Date" stamps to create your own cards.

Check out Purple Lemon Designs' Wedding Stamps and Stationery shop section.

Glitzy Events

Glitzy Events specializes in customized wedding invitations. They offer a creative and affordable alternative for your special day.

Special offer: 5% off any full invitation order, must mention "Etsy Twitter" to qualify. Refund to be issued via PayPal.

Invites by Jen

This shop specializes in paper goods for your whole event, from "Save the Date" cards to programs for the ceremony.

All couples that place their deposit in June to book their wedding stationery for their future date will receive an additional 10% off their entire order. Mention "Etsy Twitter" to receive the discount. This special is on top of all the regular discounts she offers: if you order 150+ invitation sets you receive 10% off your invitation order and if you order your invitations through her you receive 10% off all additional stationery such as menus and programs.

A GRAND GIVEAWAY!!

In addition to the invaluable wedding information you will find this week on the Etsy Twitter Team blog, we are having a contest for all of you!
