News from Artfire

Artfire sure is moving and shaking the handmade community up. There are several pieces of Artfire that I hope to share with ACTs followers.


First is the side news outlet that Artfire has created. HandmadeNews.org is a venue devoted to handmade articles from creating art, selling your pieces to inspiration articles and enviromental friendly pieces. The latest department is all about crafting with your kids. Not only does ACT 100% back this awesome publication, but several of our guild members are proud columnists for HandmadeNews.org


Secondly, in case you missed it, there is a new site that allows you to promote your handmade items. Vote Handmade allows members to submit links, vote pieces popular and comment on your favorite Handmade items! What a cool way to promote and makes it easier for shoppers to see all the best items in one spot.


Third-- and this is the best one, Artfire is hosting a contest. The contest is on Facebook and winners get a $100 shopping spree on Artfire. All you have to do is declare how awesome Artfire is.

I'd love to know more about how votehandmade works. I signed up but haven't figured out how to submit an item, to find a specific item, nor how to vote for an item.
Thanks,
Coco
