Spring Muses Russian Artists Team Contest

Spring is all about blooming trees and amazing flowers, first warm sunny days and positive attitudes. One of Russian Artists team members Lena Baymut came up with an idea of yet another team spring contest. The main idea of this spring content is to feature not only amazing items hand crafted by Russian Artists team members but to actually present the artists themselves. Every team member could submit a listing from his or her store featuring his or her muse.

We all love hand crafting and are always eager to share our new ideas and designs with the Intrenet community. Creating hand made items for spring is especially rewarding as spring is all about beautiful colors, flowers, rebirth and happiness!

All the submissions were available on Russian Artists Facebook Page for voting. It was again a tough choice to vote for one or another of our beautiful artists.

Russian Artists team is somewhat unique. We are all united by a common mother tongue that is Russia but we all live in different parts of the world. This contest was actually a great opportunity for us to meet each other in person. We now know the artists who create unique and inspiring art pieces in our team.

Every item submitted collected a great number of votes. Below are four who got the most votes.

1. Hand painted silk scarf Fishes by WoolGemArt


2. White mohair shawl by CozySeason


3. Medieval Style Dress by Katrinshine


4. Felted white scarf by LenaBaymut


Congratulations to our amazing winners!!!

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.

Although the original idea was to select just three items as ultimate winners, three more pieces pretty much shared the fourth place. They are definitely worth presenting as our fourth place winners.
