Recycling and Welcoming

Jessica and I as little girls.


Greetings to All,


  My name is Andrea and I am Jessica's (the new team captain's) twin sister; you may have seen me mentioned in some of Jessica's welcoming discussions/convos.  Yes, I am the newest member to the team, and proud to be a part of this fabulous movement of "recycling"!  I love to recycle!  You can just ask Jessica about it; I always come up with new ways to use my family's "trash" (glass jars, yogurt cups, rubber bands, old shirts, wrapping paper, etc.) or if all else fails, I put this trash of mine away for my husband to take to our local recycling service.


With "vintage" being the new "green", my shop (Storybook Artifact) and I are ready to be a great addition to this team!  I look forward to helping out as new team leader.  Feel free to contact me with any questions or need of assistance; I'd love to help. :-)


Eco-Friendly Freckles Decoupage Art Canister (Baby Inspiration)


I just wanted to feature one of Jessica's decoupage canisters to show how our new team captain's art can be so versatile and elaborate!  This one (featured above) is titled Baby Inspiration.  I will be taking this as a gift for an upcoming baby shower (that I'll be attending this weekend) for a friend of mine.  I am so happy to have picked out 
this personable piece from my artistic twin sister's Etsy shop (Eco-Friendly Freckles).  Wrapped inside, Jessica fixed me up with some of her luxurious handmade soap also.  This little addition to the shower gift really has made the gift extraordinary!  I love the detail in Jessica's art: absolutely breathtaking!  I look forward to seeing this baby shower gift unwrapped and "cherished"; the word cherished is elegantly featured on soap's tag, which I think truly accentuates the thoughtfulness behind this playful "welcome baby" gift.  I added a smily rattle to help play along the theme as well.


Just a Friendly Reminder to All Etsy Recyclers Guild Team Members: to please change your team tag on all your shops items to recycleguild.  Thank You. :-)

Get to know our awsome team captain, Cindy of Retro Chalet

I joined the Etsy Recyclers Guild Team a few months ago and have had a pleasant experience from day one. Cindy our team captain and team leader has several shops on Etsy. Her main shop is Retro Chalet and her second shop is Retro Chalet Studio. She sells really cool vintage stuff including vintage buttons, vintage Melmac, vintage block letters, vintage advertising and other vintage items at Retro Chalet.

Her Etsy bio says, "Dumpster Diving Diva, Recycler, Artist, Writer, and Greenie. Proud Team Leader of the Etsy Recyclers Guild. Member of the Vintage Etsy Society Street Team. Do-gooder".

Lot of vintage buttons $12.00

In her Retro Chalet Studio shop, she sells a variety of cute recycled handmade art things such as poker chips with cute images taken from vintage books and other sources (these are made into pendants), mixed media collages and other jewelry pieces.

Cindy is the type of person who is willing to go above and beyond for anyone. She's always willing to promote other team members because that's just who she is. I've never met her in person, but we have exchanged quite a few messages and I feel as if I've gotten to know her. She's a genuine person who would give anyone the shirt off her back if it came down to it. She gives 110% and more in everything she does. I would like to thank Cindy from the bottom of my heart for everything she has done for our team and for me. You can get to know Cindy better by clicking the links below:
