Présenté comme une alternative a etsy, sous forme d'une coop donc possédé par ses membres ça fait quelques temps que j'étais interessé. Après quelques question sur comment envoyer a pas cher des choses aux usa (la majorité des visiteur sont de là bas) je me suis inscrit hier et je viens d'entrer mon premier produit !
Hi everyone! I've been expanding my line of fused glass Pride jewelry, and I have a new one from this week I want to highlight. I'm really happy with how these turned out. They're just a little bit transparent and catch the light beautifully when worn. $40+.

Hey Mastodon! I'm Nora and I run a #jewelry shop out of my house in Albuquerque. I'd love to sell you some cool glass baubles! Here's some of what's on offer.
Shares are appreciated; I'm having a pretty slow sales weekend.

Alright dear ones, it's time to make a little announcement.
For anyone reading this without context, let me provide some:
My partner & I own Rancho de la Libertad: a regenerative agricultural project and spiritual & artistic sanctuary in the high desert. We host ceremony here, provide a landing space to travelers interested in what we're doing, I provide ritual tattooing to those who need it, and we're doing the slow work of regeneration of soil and moving to turn back the ecological desecration that's occurred here in the last 150 years since the settler & gold rushes.
But it's in trouble. We're poised to lose our primary income stream soon, and this means that we won't be able to carry the current mortgage on our house. We're looking at purchasing instead a plot of vacant land between 40 and 60 acres and living in tipis, completely off grid. This positions us actually better for a few different kinds of opportunities. We can expand our regeneration efforts, live more sustainably, eliminate our energy costs (currently a huge part of our monthly bills), provide more living spaces for less money for travelers & residents, and have animals that we don't have the space for here, like horses & cattle.
Losing Rancho de la Libertad wouldn't just be devastating for our family, but for the artists & wanderers that we routinely host here for ceremonies, stargazing events, tattooing rites, and more generally so that they have the space to escape the city and have physical space in which to create and rest.
With that being said, we don't want anything for nothing. I recently (as you all know) opened up a ko-fi store, and am going to be releasing an Etsy store in the next 24 hours as well. We will be using our collective creative skills to craft meaningful spiritual objects in an effort to try to begin an alternate revenue stream.
I additionally will be posting a goal on ko-fi to crowdfund land and get us started. If I've held space for you, provided a beneficial meditation, or if you've stopped by the ranch and you have 5 dollars to spare, please consider if we're worth some of your support.
I will still make a point to not turn this into just a sales channel: I don't aim to trade this beautiful community I've found for sales. Occasionally you'll see shop updates or discounts from me, but otherwise the rest of what I share will be the same.
And for fun, I've opened up a discount on my ko-fi shop from now until the Winter Solstice.
My teapot broke! I recently rediscovered my love for loose leaf tea, but broke the spout of my glass teapot last week. A mere tap of the tip of the spout and it broke apart in my hands.
So, I am need of a 1 liter teapot with a strainer. As it will sit on my desk with me most of the day, I would love to have something with a bit of artistry and craftsmanship.
I know this is a long shot but does anyone know someone who makes bags? I need a new laptop and travel satchel and I'd rather buy it from someone fedi-local. #question#shopping#bags#craft#artisan

Charles had already taken 20 minutes to make Rita’s footlong Black Forest Ham sandwich, but he didn’t care. This was what being an artisan was all about. Not only did he create what looked to be an actual black forest out of burnt whole wheat, but he created small pickle people in the forest, contemplating their existence in a world of ash.
“I just want to eat,” pleaded Rita.
“Oh, you’ll eat,” said Charles. “You’ll feast on disillusionment and ennui.” Charles’ eyes lit up with anticipation.
“Is that a kind of mayo? I said no mayo.” Rita was starting to think she should have gone to Jersey Mike’s instead.
In the end, Charles served up a dish that looked like a Tim Burton nightmare. There was a beauty to the bizarre desolation, but it was not easy to put it in your mouth.
“Pass,” said Rita, who paid for three bags of chips and hurried back to work.
Charles, heartbroken that his creation was abandoned, started to wonder, Had his years at Subway University been for naught? Was he the Titan Turkey? He realized his emptiness was reflected in his own creation, and was just as hard to swallow. It was the last time he wielded a mustard spreader.
J'essaye de persuader une amie de rejoindre le fédi parce qu'elle fabrique et vend des petites pièces choupies et magnifiques qui vous plairaient beaucoup, vous lui montreriez comment on est convivial et enthousiastes ?
