Etsy Featured Artist - CCSynopticvisions and StudioSeven
At first glance it may look like I have chosen two different artists for this weeks feature, but that is not entirely true. It is two different Etsy shops. But they are both run and stocked by one fabulous Etsyian. Her name is Chris, and she is one of the first people on Etsy that I developed a friendship with. As far as being a member of the Etsy community, she is very active and in my opinion very important! She reaches out to new users, and somehow pulls them out of that shell that they may be hiding in
She is very visible on the forums. Participating in all sorts of threads - from BnRs (Buy and Replace) to Games to just plane talking threads. She is very approachable, and answers whatever questions that she is able to. I can’t count the amount of conversations I have sent to her asking about a certain technique or where to find certain supplies.
But aside from that, she is also an amazing Etsy artist. As I mentioned, she runs two Etsy shops. The first one that I came across is called CCSynopticvisions . At first I just looked at this as a supply shop, with some great things that I had not yet tried using! So…I ordered! I ordered a lot, and I ordered often. Her packages always arrived quickly, well packed, and usually with a few extra goodies thrown in! Then I started looking around more at the store, and was blown away by the talent! Gorgeous bracelets, earrings, rings and more! And her photography of her items is beautiful.
After sharing so many forum threads with Chris, I soon found out that she had a second shop. This one is called Studio Seven . In this shop she has her beautiful metal creations. A lot of sterling silver work. Lots of pendants and rings, as well as all sorts of body jewelry. Really brilliant work!
Although having two stores to run and filling them both with such quality work must take a huge amount of time, Chris still takes the time to reach out to the Etsy community. She is a great person to know, and probably the person that has given me the most inspiration on Etsy. I highly recommend both of her shops, as well as talking to her on the forums if you ever get the chance. I have a mini for each of her shops posted at the end of this entry. Take a minute to browse, she has so many treasures for you to discover.
