    Online crafty marketplace Etsy just became a publicly traded company. What does this mean for makers who sell on the site?

CREATIVITY in a podcast

Rendered, the former Destination DIY podcast, is a Portland based podcast on CREATIVITY. Once a month, the stories focus on Etsy,, or creative farmers or small towns that suddenly become creative communities. If you are creative or self-employed, you will find these stories enrich your day. LOVE THIS! My only complaint is that this is only once a month. This should be on once a week…at least…it is so good!
