Giveaway Sponsor Spotlight: Sea & Asters, from Etsy
Can you tell us a little bit about your Etsy store?
Sea & Asters is a shop collection of Tillandsias or "Air Plants", terrariums and nature inspired gifts.
I began creating terrariums for my friends and family a few years ago. I enjoyed it so much that soon thereafter Sea & Asters followed. Sea & Asters has now grown into a partnership between me and my husband.
Can you tell us how you came up with the idea for terrariums?
I've always loved the beauty of the small landscape and ecosystem of terrariums. However, it wasn't until my discovery of tillandsias that I truly became completely immersed with creating Tillandsia terrariums. I was first introduced to Tillandsias while studying horticulture. Thus began my obsession with Tillandsias; now I picture practically every inanimate object with a Tillandsia displayed in it.
What do you love most about selling on Etsy?
My experience on Etsy has been incredibly gratifying. I love the personal connections with our customers. We want our customers to truly feel like they are receiving a special product directly from us. To think that this terrarium or plant is going to be a part of someone's home…there is nothing like it.
We have recently started a FaceBook page as a way to announce giveaways, new items, etc. You can see it here: http://www.facebook.com/Sea.Asters
We also have an Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/seaandasters

These terrariums are magical, thank you for the chance! (I have filled all the requirements)
They are beautiful, though. I tried to make one myself not too long ago and just couldn’t seem to get it right. Thanks again!
