About Me:
I am Jennifer, half of the duo known as Antiquity Gamecrafters. We handcraft reproductions of board games from all different periods of history and from around the world.

As often as possible we use reclaimed wood to make our games. One of the results of this practice is that each game is very unique because it depends entirely on what kind of wood we have been able to find. We've used everything from discarded pallets to scraps from local woodcrafters, to pieces of furniture on their way to the dump.

My husband and I have been married for 16 years and have 5 kids whom we homeschool.

Settling in.....

Now that I'm here at indiepublic and settled in a little bit, I wanted to add a little more about us: My husband grew up in a family that played games....lots of games. But of particular note are two games that were played because Brian's father was Armenian; Tovli (backgammon) and Fertgal (Nine Man's Morris). When we lived in the Middle East we had the privilege to visit Damascus and purchase a beautiful Tovli board inlaid with Mother of Pearl which looked very similar to the one Brian's gran… Continue

Dear AncientGamecupboard,

I am an Admin of our Team called Design Style Guide. We are a team of over 300 artists who create Handmade Home Decor Items exclusively.

Our main purpose is to promote our team and it's members to Interior Designers (and like-minded consumers) and their market as a whole through various promotions and advertising techniques. We are an exciting Team that is achieving great strides in marketing and branding the uniqueness of "Handmade Home Decor" to professional Interior Designers! We, of course, also do tons of cross-promotion and marketing within the Etsy community!

If you’d like to read more about our team go to our Etsy profile page: http://team.etsy.com/profilest/interiordesign.shtml

Since we are fairly new, we are still building our main Team Website http://designstyleguide.net that will serve as an online catalog that will be linked to your store. Before we can seriously work with Interior Designers we need to grow and expand our collective portfolio in categories and styled combined.

I think you would be a great addition to our team. If you are interested in joining, Here is the link to join: http://designstyleguide.ning.com/?xgi=8Sgu6NA

Thanks for your consideration and we look forward to meeting you soon!

Welcome to IndiePublic!

I am doing a little cross promoting/networking!

Please friend me here if we aren't already!

Blog - http://www.always-amy.blogspot.com
My blog has lots of tips & hints for new Etsy members. I've been on Etsy for over two years now & want to give back to the community by helping younger shops. Give it a peek! It has a big plug board for you to load your link up free & two nice spots to run project wonderful ads. Plus, I like to do blog site, link exchanges. I usually get between 75 to 300 hits a day so it stays busy & is a nice place to promote from.

No prob.! I think they're awsome. I haven't had any problems at all. It all runs great! Let me know if you have any questions.

OMG!!! I love those games! I had a Senet game board years ago and I loved it! Great work! I will go and check out you shop and most definitly heart it!!!

BTW...A bunch of us who sell on Etsy.com have already started excepting RME payments!

It is a new online payment site that a lot more people are using now because it is totally free! No FEES!!!!!!
When someone pays you,you get all of your money! Works just like paypal but without the fees. AND they give you $25 for free just for signing up! I didn't want to tell others about it until I actually got my $25 in my bank account and started using it myself. But I have been using it and it is great! So I am spreading the word!
I am so sorry if this sounds or looks like spam. It is not meant to be at all!!! I really just want to tell you about a new way to except online payments without any fees.
