Meet and Greet Giveaway: CelticKnot

Introducing: Kristine, of CelticKnot.etsy.com

Pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and meet someone new! Then, enter to win a $10 gift certificate to CelticKnot. Read on for details!

Kristine began making earrings to pass the time when her husband was on a long deployment with the US Navy. She learned about Etsy from a friend, and decided to open a shop in February of 2008. Her initial plan was to focus on Irish jewelry, keychains, and bookmarks (hence the CelticKnot name), but she has since expanded to many different styles and items.

Kristine is a married, full time graduate student studying to be a teacher at Virginia tech in Blacksburg, VA. Her husband and studies come first, but she enjoys creating while watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune almost every night! She folds her amazing origami lucky stars whenever she has free hands.

When she joined Etsy, Kristine was immediately impressed and astounded by the immense creativity of the welcoming community. In fact, when asked to give a piece of advice to new sellers, she replied "I would advise new sellers to get to know their fellow Etsians. They are wonderful, sweet, kind, creative, and have valuable experience and knowledge to share, as well as amazing items to admire and buy."

Her favorite items are her Rainbow Helix earrings, Shooting Star earrings, and origami lucky stars. I personally find a favorite hard to choose, and I suspect you will, too!

Giveaway details: Kristine is generously offering a $10 gift certificate to the lucky winner who will be chosen at random (through random.org) on February 13th. The $10 can be used for an item or items already in her shop, or even toward a custom item made just for you!
