Hello lovelies! I'm back from my trip, which was very fun.
I thought I should mention there is a big ol' interview I did with Etsy's cool new e-newspaper "The Storque" that just went up today! I also picked out a few current Etsy faves, so you might want to take a gander. I talked...a lot...so there's a lot to read right here.
Back with more soon! I hope you like the interview.
Happy Monday!

Hi! I have been reading (and loving) your blog for a while now but haven't left a note yet. But I just saw your spotlight and interview over on Etsy and wanted to congratulate you! You are an inspiration!

Yayy Emily.... I was saying to myself when reading the storque...'when are they going to do the Black Apple story'?
It's about time, they featured you.
I love it.

I just saw that and came running over to say congratulations!! :) Off to make a cup of tea and sit down for a few minutes to read it... I'm sure I'll get loads of good advice and inspiration from your interview! (I just opened my own Etsy store in August and my goodness--it's overwhelming sometimes! hehe)
Glad that you're back; I selfishly admit I missed your blog posts. ;) Hope you had a lovely weekend!

Hi Emily,
I lurked over from your interview in the Storque. Very good interview.
You really should pursue licensing your artwork
, even the doll designs. TBA is its on little art brand, and I think it would do well.

and thankyou for featuring my print!
i heard of this thanks the one and only vanessa (a fanciful twist), a treat to find a full interview!

Well I agree with everyone that has posted a comment so far! That was a super fun interview to read. I just started my little blog and am also trying to carve out a little notch of my own in Etsy land. It's nice to read story's like this! And it must be such a great feeling to know that you are admired. Good job miss!
