NEW stuff (and announcement!) about fiskars website…

new article by designer Tia Bennett

March sketch of the month (be sure and enter your creations!)

Featured project of the week

a new Fiskars TV episode, and the coolest news of all…

march_main.jpg  they’re featuring a fisk-a-teer a day in March! Every day in March a different fiskateer made project will be featured. Do you wonder who’s projects you’ll see? Do you wonder who thought of the idea and put it together?

I’ll let you in on a secret that I’ve been holding onto for almost a month!

Ok, so most of you know that I am not re-applying as a lead fiskateer. A lot of you have e-mailed me and asked what my future will hold, etc… well I’ll tell you! Fiskars has offered me a positon (and I have accepted!) taking charge of education on FiskarsCrafts.com! I’m so very excited about this. A job I do totally from home, and I get to work with wonderful fiskars people, the fabulous design team, and bring my ideas to the website too. I have a LOT up my sleeve and I hope you all enjoy. I am really excited that I was able to feature fiskateers for national craft month too. This is going to be a craft filled month for sure!

I’ll admit- the next few months are going to be crazy balancing life and both jobs… but it’s such fun and will totally work out. I’ll keep you updated here on what’s new at the site in future- but for now I just wanted to tell you all the BIG announcement and make sure you’re checking in to see fabulous projects every day in March! Oh- you’ll also find new Fiskars TV episodes and weekly articles too!!!

Did you get your Fiskars E-blast newsletter? (if you’re not signed up- visit www.fiskarscrafts.com to sign up!) If you want to get the march E-blast just shoot me an e-mail (may@fiskateers.com) from your e-mail addy and I’ll forward it to you. Just put “newsletter” in the subject field so I know what you want!
