HAPPY VEGAN PIZZA DAY!!

Happy Vegan Pizza Day everyone!! As far as we know, this is the first ever annual Vegan Pizza Day. And we here at the Vegan Etsy Team think it's a great idea! Vegan pizza is absolutely delish, be it frozen or straight from the coal oven, whether you go extra healthy with a spelt or whole wheat crust covered in fresh vegetables, or to the other end of the spectrum with a pie simply drowning in cheeze, sham, chik'n, and whatever else your heart desires. Every vegan pizza has its place... and that place is IN YOUR MOUTH!

So! Make sure you enjoy some vegan pizza today - and share it with friends! And if you'd like to send us your vegan pizza pictures, stories, and triumphs, we'll post them here! Just leave a comment and we'll get in touch.

Happy pizza-ing!

Vegan Pizza Day is just around the corner...

Vegan Pizza Day will be celebrated on Saturday, January 29 2011. We're excited - are you??

Vegan Etsy teams up with SASHA to help celebrate 10th Anniversary!

SASHA Farm, the largest sanctuary of its kind in the Midwest, is celebrating its 10th Anniversary this year! And the Vegan Etsy Team is excited to be part of the festivities. Team members will be donating various items to the Silent Auction that will be held during the 10th Anniversary Celebration Banquet, scheduled for March 12. Check out the SASHA website to learn more about this amazing place and about the event. And if you or your group has something to contribute, we're sure they'd love to hear from you too!

From the SASHA event announcement:

The 10th Anniversary Celebration Banquet and Silent Auction will be held at Weber's Inn in Ann Arbor on Saturday, March 12th. More details are available on the flyer, and tickets can be purchased online, at the sanctuary, or by sending a check to SASHA Farm, PO Box 222, Manchester, MI 48158. We have a great evening planned, and you don't want to miss it!

We're starting our plea for silent auction donations a little early this year... The only requirement is that the items donated are animal-friendly. The proceeds from the auction each year account for a significant portion of our income and all that money goes directly toward the care of over 250 rescued animals.

If you plan to donate this year, you can let us know by email or by calling the sanctuary at (734) 428-9617.

New year messages from handmade items.

Posted by Veganessa

Happy New Year everyone. Now that we've got past the celebrations, and settled back to work, I thought I'd look around VeganEtsy members shops for message of goodwill and hope for a good year ahead. Here are some of the fabulous items I found:

This adorable, bright print from Myzoetrope is part of a Love and Peace series of prints, that will inspire and delight anyone.

Beautiful copper orange carnelian pendant, handstamped with the word LAUGHTER. Handmade by ArtbySusmitha. It's a welcome word on a grey January day.

How about a 'Lucky' bracelet. This sweet bracelet by Pinkbubble may be just the lucky token you need to change your fortunes. Gorgeous green and metallic grey beads, and a cute stamped word with a lucky four leaf clover. Feeling lucky yet?

And finally, I'd like to add an item from my own shop Veganessa . A message of HOPE on a mixed fiber brooch. For 2011 lets all HOPE for a good year ahead, with lots of veganess and kindness to all.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Thanks to everyone who has supported the Vegan Etsy Team throughout 2010!! May 2011 bring joy, hope, and prosperity to you and your loved ones.
