Hey Teams!

Like many Etsians, I learned how to sew and craft from my mother and grandmother. I will always fondly remember the time we spent creating side by side. With Mother's Day just around the corner, join me this week in celebrating the Moms of Etsy!

Raising children and running an Etsy shop at the same time can be a lot of work. Many Etsy teams have been created around this unique shared experience. If you're a mom looking to join a team, check out EtsyMom, Team Mom, Busy Moms of Etsy, or browse all teams for mamas!

The Ties That Bind: Ayşegül & Sebahat

This lovely short film about the mother-daughter Etsy shop irregularexpressions explores the special bond made when creating together. It's beautiful to hear how the duo learn from and interact with one another. Watch this and more Etsy videos on the blog.
