thanks so much to our fabulous judges for this event, the wonderful Morgan Evans & Christine Domanic of Etsy. As Etsy's Community Strategist, Morgan is happiest when bringing people together. she draws comics, rides a bike and surrounds herself with people who inspire her. 
as a Merchandising Specialist at Etsy, Christine likes to spend her time crafting, hiking in the woods, making people eat raw food, and she sells her lovely jewelry at christinedomanic.

what our judges had to say about the nominations: "I had a great time browsing through the fun nominations. I looked for items that made me smile or brought out the playful kid that still lives deep within my heart.

There were so many awesome items to choose from!"
-Christine



"Looking through all the submissions was such an inspiration! I thought that each and every one had a truly fun spirit. I chose the 10 that I would most like to have a conversation with if they could talk."
- Morgan
