About me:
Crafting a Green World - established November 19th, 2007 as part of the Green Options blog network.
You can also add CAGW as a friend on Twitter and MySpace.
Green is the new black, as they say, but what in the world does that mean? It means living sustainably is the “cool” thing to do, but some of us have been doing these things for years. Take crafters for example - many of us keep scraps of fabrics from other projects for future use, “frog” old sweaters and scarves to have fresh yarn to work with, and tweak items and patterns we find to make them just right for our tastes.
The renewed popularity of green living has benefits for creative folks as well, including new sustainable fabrics and innovate ideas for reusing a plethora of resources. For those of us who enjoy being a part of the creative process or are beginning to experiment with do-it-yourself projects, then Crafting a Green World is for you!
We feature everything from eco-patterns, supplies, and creators to book reviews and event/sale notices. Crafting a Green World (CAGW) is your #1 resource for organic, natural, and recycled crafty projects, products, media, and businesses.
Whether you are a novice, a pro, or somewhere in between, Crafting a Green World has the sustainable crafty content you are looking for.
+ Blog Editor and Head Writer: Victoria Everman
 I think of myself as a creatively versatile eco-powerhouse. Freelance writer, life-long model, on-camera personality, official U.S. spokesperson for Twice Shy Clothing, and founder of the San Francisco Craft Mafia - I’m a classic Renaissance woman and mistress-of-all-trades.
Perpetually looking for fresh ways to share my unquenchable green knowledge, I blog about everything eco on my own website, as well as for Green Options, Green Loop, and select others. Most recently, I have been hired by Building Green TV as a writer and web editor for their site. Also, my diverse articles have been published in variety of reputable magazines, such as: Yoga Journal, Venus, CRAFT, Yogi Times, Recovery Solutions, M+F, and Office Solutions.
In my spare time, you can find me knitting, reading, singing, taking pictures, practicing yoga, taking long walks, and working on my first non-fiction book. Other random facts about me: I’m a Buddhist, vegetarian, latex fan, and have four tattoos.
+ Contributing Writer [Mon/Wed/Fri]: Melissa Stadja of The Stanley Family Lodge
 I quite frequently describe myself as a "busy bee" because I'm constantly pursuing different ideas and interests. Over the past 12 years I've attending 4 colleges, lived in 3 states, created 2 successful businesses, married my best friend, adopted a giant Chihuahua named Elliott, self-published 2 issues of the internet zine What You Make It, bought my first home, and most recently gave birth to my first child Clara June. When you add it all up I either seem crazy or incredibly productive.
My most recent projects include running the earth friendly online shop The Stanley Family Lodge with my husband, and keeping up my personal blog Making Home. When I'm not glued to my iMac or being at the beck-and-call of my two month old daughter, I enjoy: living a greener life, cooking vegan, home-making, sewing, painting, and dabbling in just about everything under the sun.
+ Contributing Writer [Tuesdays starting in January!]: Tara Hogan of Ink + Wit
