May 2014 First Friday Art Walk Weekend Event Post

Welcome to the May 2-4, 2014 First Friday Art Walk Weekend Event Post.

Every month the members of our AWETeam (Art Walk Etsy Team) come together to share their new, seasonal appropriate, holiday, etc work on our "event" thread.

As a team we like to help promote each others shops by creating Etsy Treasuries, favoriting items, and possibly even buying some stuff from one another!

Come on by and check out our May 2014 Event Thread and see all kinds of items from our team members.

Here are some of the AWETeam treasuries helping to promote members on out team, and items from team members that have made some of these collections!
