Above is the matchbox I made at tonight’s Etsy Craft Night. Even though it is a bit boring, I am counting it as my creative thing for today.

I had a great time hosting the Craft NIght tonight. We had about 30-40 people attend during the four-hour event and everyone made amazing matchboxes. It was laid back and fun. Everyone was really nice and creative. (It was all ladies, except for when Travis showed up to help me clean up.) People even ate the chocolate pretzels I brought and said they were good! I also did a virtual demo via video online, which I think went well. It isn’t saved for future viewing, so I guess I’ll never know. I’ll just keep on thinking I did great. ha!

Overall, it was a successful event and a bunch of us went out for pizza at Grimaldi’s afterward. Yum! (That is me with Etsy’s Community Manager and Organizer of the Craft Night’s, Julie, after we had cleaned up the Etsy Labs.)

   I saw it. You were very natural on the camera. You should consider doing these more often.

   That is luluvision! She was super-sweet and came to help me set up and also made two really cute matchboxes. I am so glad she was there.

   How did you find the video, Adam? I didn’t think anyone recorded it! I am glad that I got to see it. Thanks!
