Mothers Day Contest results

The wonderful Mother's day is approaching and Russian Artists team came up with a cool gift for all of you our dear readers, fans and followers. Why to spend hours looking for a perfect present for your mom? We already did the search for you. Russian Artists team just had a Mother's day gift contest with a large selection of astonishing and beautiful hand made gift ideas for your loved ones. You don't have to search any longer. Just go to Russian Artists Facebook Page where all great gift ideas are already pre-selected for you.

Each Russian Artists team shop could submit one item to the Mother's day contest. Our friendly challenge turned out to be a huge success with 78 team shops suggesting gift ideas for our moms. All of the entries are outstanding, crafted with great care and absolutely unique. The access to the voting page is public so everyone was welcome to cast his or her vote. With so many beautiful items to choose from it was tremendously difficult to make a choice!

Nevertheless three items that received the highest number of “likes” are as follows:

1. Hand crocheted freeform scarf by Allmadewithlove


2. Stained Glass Panel by FleetingStillness


3. OOAK Angel "Saveliy" by timBelinskas


To give you an idea of how many amazing and beautiful items were actually submitted to the contest we decided to feature three more art pieces created by Russian Artists team members. These items were among the most "liked" ones.

Valentines Day Perfect Gift Team Contest

As Valentine's Day is approaching and so many people are looking for perfect gifts for their friends, co-workers, class-mates, neighbors and loved ones we decided to help all of them to find special and unique presents they are looking for. Russian Artists team held a contest among its members to select three wonderful gift ideas for Valentine's Day. The contest has got a huge support among Russian Artists team members. We had fifty nominations in total with every Etsy team member shop nominating one of its items. It's amazing how many beautiful items has been created by our talented team member shops on Etsy for this event!

Each team shop had a chance to cast its vote and select three items from a pool of fifty wonderful and unique hand made creations. Many shops shared their concern that it was actually hard to make a decision as all of the items in the contest were superb. Forty five member shops voted and three winners were selected.
