Funky Eco-Friendly Jewelry and Accessories

I hope everyone had a wonderful Fourth of July yesterday!

Today I'd like to introduce you to a member of Etsy who is not just a team member in the BESTeam (Boosting Etsy Shops Team) that I've mentioned here on the blog in the past but is also a fellow member of the QESTeam (Queer Etsy Street Team)!

Ellesbeads on EtsyThe Queer Etsy Street Team is a very supportive and wonderful team of sellers who fit into the spectrum of the LGBTQ society (that would be Lesbian Gay Bi Transgenders Queer). Since July is Pride Month, it's my honor to be able to introduce to you one of the members of this team during such an important time of year!

Ellesbeads on Etsy is filled with funky eco-friendly jewelry and accessories including not just Pride Jewelry but also earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, charms, brooches, barrettes, bookmarks, cell charms and more. I'm particularly intrigued by the rings they have for sale. As you can see by the picture in this post, they're very unique!

Everything is colorful and bright and absolutely beautiful, much of which is vintage inspired with a twist and often takes recycled goods as well as donated and discarded items and combines them with beautiful beads to create many of the pieces offered!

My turn to blog about Haiti... Kind Of

Okay, not exactly. But, Haiti's involved because today I'm featuring the Queer Etsy Street Team Collective, which is a shop run by the QueerEtsy Team, who is currently contributing to help with the Haitian relief effort.

This is a great and very talented group of
fun loving GLBTQIQ (gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans-gender, queer, inter-sex and questioning) Etsians.

Their collective shop is filled with talented artists and craftspeople that work with every conceivable medium and, among their merchandise, you will find a broad representation of incredible handmade items and vintage treasures.

All items in the shop are donated by the talented members of the Queer Etsy Street Team, and 100% of sales proceeds go to benefit charities of the team's choosing. This month, until February 14th, that charity is the Madre.Org to benefit their emergency fund for the survivors of the Haitian earthquake.

The store offers Free Shipping, too! So, if you're looking for a way to give back or Pay-It-Forward, make sure you head over to the Queer Etsy Street Team Collective and take a look around.
