ETSYPAPER TEAM - HANDMADE PAPER
I sell my cards on my main website but I also have a shop on etsy. I belong to a "street " team within the etsy selling community called The etsypaper team. We are over 100 members strong and have our own social networking site where we can communicate and share ideas and photos of our paper related products.
A month (or so) ago, one of our members started a forum looking for suggestions on what to do with paper scraps. There were a lot of great ideas and after one thing led to another...... we decided that we should send our scraps to one of our members who actually makes her own paper! I sent a 2lb. box of scraps a couple of weeks ago and everyone else is doing the same. This is a much better solution than just throwing scraps in the trash (you can only imagine how much paper 100+ paper crafters can go through!).
We have tagged her handmade paper - Etsypaper street team paper. She is also donating a portion of her sales back into our street team fund. The paper looks great, with a nice selection of colors and it looks to have a nice texture as well. If you are interested in buying her handmade paper, the link to her shop is at the end of this blog. The paper she makes from our scraps is good her shop, good for our team, good for the environment and good for the buyer who gets great looking and fun handmade paper to play with!
It's a win/win/win/win situation!
