Introducing the new Etsy Ireland Committee


The second half of 2010 has started, and a new committee has taken up the mantle of the old one. The Crafty Ireland Team has expanded considerably - we're now over 180 members strong - and so has the work. Therefore, there are now a lot more of us in the committee.

A big thank you goes out to the old committee. Wow, what can I say about the old committee that hasn't been said before??? They were amazing, hard-working, successful and dedicated! Thank you Ruth and Alex, and it's great to know that you are still active in the new committee to keep up the good work!!!

Here are the new faces of the Crafty Ireland Team and their responsibilities for the next six months. Details can also be found on the Contact Us page of this blog.
