Daily Craft
2011 is already buzzing by. I've just jumped hands-first into my own daily creative project, and have high hopes for a highly creative year both in my own tiny craft nook, and all across the green, fertile Etsy Land. Read on for creative inspiration, project ideas, and how you can use your craft powers for good.
Special Delivery

Share Your Love

Valentine's Day is coming up soon, and with it comes an opportunity to extend some love and kindness. You may recall our Special Delivery project from years past, which we're delighted to say is now an Etsy tradition. We'll be working with Citymeals-on-Wheels to bring nutritious meals, handmade greeting cards and companionship to elderly New Yorkers.

We need the help of your crafty hands to supply the cards. Citymeals-on-Wheels serves over 18,000 people, so we need as many as we can get. There are two ways to do this. The first is (you guessed it) to make your own card. You can also send in a vintage card from your shop. Either way, please fill it out with a nice message. Please craft as many valentines as you would like and send them to us.

We think that crafting is way more fun with friends, so we invite you to throw your own Craft Party in your corner of the world. All you need to do is visit Etsy's Meetups Everywhere page, join a Special Delivery Meetup where you live, invite your friends and neighbors, make some heartfelt cards and mail them our way.
