Ethical Fashion

Dsenyo joined the Etsy Earth Team back in November of 2009. Once a month, the Etsy Earth Team blog features and interview with a team member.  Dsenyo is the featured member this January, 2010.  Check out the interview here.

The Etsy Earth Team is focused on earth-friendly handmade goods. Each team member is committed to sustainability, aware of current eco-issues, taking responsibility for making the best, well-balanced choices for their shops with the safety and quality of their products in mind.

The group is part of Etsy's Teams a feature which allows sellers to band together to network, share skills, and promote their shops and Etsy together.  According to Etsy, "Teams are Etsy’s biggest and most creative grassroots engine for support, networking and marketing – for each team member’s shop, for the Teams themselves, and for Etsy as a whole"
