Etsyhooker Creative Challenge — Rainbow Theme

This week the voting will open for the second Etsyhooker Creative Challenge, which is a rainbow theme. On Wednesday, July 9th, you can start voting for your favorite entry in this challenge. To see all the entries, please check out the team blog. So far, we have 38 entries, which is more than double our first challenge.

Several entrants have already sold their creations. I will be adding to the list as they sell.

Crochetbouquet just sold these lovely appliques. I know she has a bunch of lovely flowers in her shop for you to check out. She also sells patterns for many of her flowers.

This purse is reserved already, but the maker is more than happy to create another.

Yummy Pancake sold the original, but has another listed of this rainbow ice cream.

MayberryCreations sold this hat, but has several other rainbow items available in her shop.

This gorgeous scarf was also snatched up quickly.

This shawl looks incredible, as do several other items in adorkable1’s shop.

Please hurry over to the EtsyHookers Team Blog to check out all the rainbow items. You may vote starting on July 9th, but if you want to purchase anything, don’t wait too long. As you can tell, these rainbow hooker items are red hot, lol.

ASL Sign for the Post: To sign rainbow, use a four hand shape to trace the curve of a rainbow in the sky.

Etsyhooker of the Week — fray

>

This is definitely a shop with a distinctive style. Fray has incredible scarves that are simply works of art. I think simple would be best for an outfit to go with one of her scarves, so that it would get the attention it deserves. The one above is called the “Blooming Vine Scarf.”

This “Sketchy Scarf” is shown wrapped several times about the neck, for extra warmth and another look. These scarves are created in a way that allows them to be used in more than just the dead of winter, but still useful for those cold days.

I love the look of this “Leafy Motif” as well. Fray offers scarves in solid colors as well as color shifting varieties.

If you check out Etsy, please check out Laura’s Left Hook as well.

ASL Sign for the Post:To sign scarf, you pretend to put on a scarf. Lifeprint has photos and an animation of this. ASLWeb shows a slightly different version, which is closer to what I have used.
