The Stone Soup Challenge

Today I just signed up for The Stone Soup Challenge. If you aren't aware of what it is, check out http://www.stonesoupchallenge.blogspot.com/

Sorry I couldn't just have a highlighted word that you click on and it takes you to that website. I haven't delved that far into the workings of blogging just yet.

Anyway....here is an excerpt from their website:
The Stone Soup Challenge is a grassroots movement founded by artist Laura Bray. The goal of the challenge is for artists and crafters to help one another by promising to use a portion of their monthly profits to invest in a fellow artist's shop. To join us in helping artists everywhere and to read more about the challenge, please go to this post.

Really neat huh?

And since I'm on the topic of supporting your fellow crafters, check out www.handmademovement.com. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, they patronize a fellow etsy member...secretly. Awesome idea!

I am so old school

So today was the offical christening of my very first blog. I am still not quite sure how this all works, so please be patient with me. Sad huh? At 24 years old, I have no clue what I'm doing with blogging. I blame it on the fact that I'm in Alaska, and really, most of the time we're still doing things the "frontier" way. However, I'm from New York and really should know better.
