Etsy in Austin!
Details as promised! I will be manning the booth 4-6pm Sunday, and will probably be there a good chunk of the weekend for events. Hit me up before then if you want an Etsy bandanna or a Etsy Austin sticker!
----
Etsy is headed to SXSW and we'd love to see you there! Join us at Venue 222 in the heart of downtown Austin for two full days and nights of DIY + Handmade + Music goodness. Stop by and get your hands dirty with upcycling tees into bags, painting shot glasses, screenprinting, handmade music, buttons, DJs, bands and more!
Stay after-hours as we transform our craft labs into a rocking lounge with live music from Neighbors, The Black Angels, Quintron & Miss Pussycat, DJ Rana June (the iPad DJ)! Plus, a DIY fashion show of Etsy and BurdaStyle members from across the USA.
Excited? So are we. Tweet us #EtsyAustin
