Second loan to Kiva!

We just made our second loan to a small business on Kiva!  Anees Fatima M. Shabir lives in Pakistan and buys clothing for her husband's business.  This loan will help her and others in her group to expand their businesses, creating stable sources of income for women.

Our group, the Fashion, Design and Lifestyle Team on Etsy, has decided to donate 10% of the sales price of select items in their individual shops and the team shop to helping other businesses throughout the world through Kiva.org.  If you want to help us out, please search Etsy.com for items tagged "fdlkiva".  Know that you are purchasing beautiful, quality handmade items ... and helping others trying to build their businesses around the world!

Yay team!!!  You are the best!

Congratulations to one of our newest members, kristensteinfineart who was featured in her first treasury ... and it made it to the front page of Etsy!  What a thrill for a new seller!  

We had two other members hit the Front Page this week.  Our FP goddess, Becca of Happiknits, was featured there this week.  Rarely does a week go by without Becca's fabulous knits being chosen and featured on that coveted place on Etsy.  This is one of my new favorites from her shop.  Luscious color!  

Thirdfloor (blush, blush, that's my shop!) made it to the FP, too!  I was dancing madly as it is only the second time that I was featured there.  Many thanks to Morelle for including me in her lovely treasury!  Her shop is beautiful.

Celestecraft has a wonderful giveaway on A Tad Bit Prudish blog.  This gorgeous silk shawl can be yours just by commenting on the blog.  Go here to find all the details and win yourself this fab shawl!
