The Volunteers For the Indie Holiday Emporium




How Can I Help? 
Four simple little words that mean so much. 

On November 29th/30th, 2014 the SFetsy Team organized an epic craft fair - The Second Annual Indie Holiday Emporium at Pier 35 in San Francisco. The turn out for the show exceeded our expectations -  but the behind the scenes and the tasks that preceded the fair are truly what amazed me personally and what I believe makes the SFetsy Team sparkle. 

The selflessness of the volunteers and leaders within the team, that had made this show great, truly inspires  --  and we just want to say Thank You.

Lead by our Etsy Team Captain, Rebecca Saylor from OodleBaDoodle, and our friends at Popupsters - they took what was an impossible challenge, to a successful creative event by putting in lots of hard work. The leaders of the SFEtsy team and volunteers added their strengths and skills to the mix and it because of it all, it became the highlight event of the year for the team.
