Changes....
So I decided to change how I was going to use the Sacramento Craft Collective.
1. The etsy account will no longer be used for selling my stuff. It will be used for creating treasuries of craft made by people in Sacramento. I'll set up a new etsy for myself.
2. I want to start a monthly meet up, much like the Sac Craft Mafia had but not so much about the business stuff. It's more about making the contacts so that ideas and information can be exchanged.
3. Suggestions: Where would be a good place and what would be a good day/time?
4. This Blog- It won't belong to one person. I'd like to be able to get contributors who want to share some info about craft fairs, meet ups and other craft minded topics. I'd love for this blog to become the sort of a giant bulletin board for crafty happenings in Sac. ( A lofty goal, I know.)
Want to be contributor, lemme know!

You do not have to be a member of either site to apply, so don't hesitate!:::::The Details:::::
1. LolliShops.com and Glitter & Grunge Design Team is a 3 month term. Every month, for three months, Five Design Team Members will be sent a special Inspiration Kit in the mail. The Design Team Members then have that month to come up with a project, make it, photograph it and then post it on their blog on the first of each month. The team members can also sell it in their LolliShop/Glitter & Grunge shop or have a giveaway on their blog.
**YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A VENDOR ON EITHER VENUE TO APPLY, UNLESS YOU WANT TO SELL YOUR CREATIONS, THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO OPEN A SHOP**
2. LS and GG will then post all the Team Members' projects on the official blogs with the pictures and links to the team members' blogs and shops. LolliShops.com will have 5 Design Team members and Glitter & Grunge will have 5 Design Team members. There will be 3 new Design Team Members every 3 months:

Right now, we are taking applications for the Fall Team for both LolliShops.com and Glitter and Grunge. We are using the same application so if you fill it out, you could be chosen for either website. The LolliShops.com team will get sweet, girlie, shabbyish, Victorianish, whimsical kits and Glitter and Grunge members will get kits that are less girly, but still sparkle, and have a vintage, modern edge to them.
::::::Here is the APPLICATION::::::<-------CLICK
3. The purpose of Design Team is to generate a sense of community spirit and excitement. It is a cross promotional tool used for the marketplace to support and promote individual artists and for the artists to support the marketplace. It is a way to set our niche marketplaces apart from other selling venues. It is our desire to showcase the unique talents and abilities of the vendors that call Glitter and Grunge and LolliShops.com home. Not only are they great places to shop, but also places to learn new ideas.
