If you're an artist, designer, retailer, blogger, or just someone who gets giddy when they buy indie, we've saved a seat for you! " Lots of members of the Creative Glass Guild use Indiepublic as a chat forum, blog, photo store and networking tool. It's also a useful tool to advertise your Etsy store and any promotions you may have. Indiepublic can also help indie artists, designers and makers promote their items with Indiecontests - a great way to publicise your latest offers or competitions. Here the CGGE have the latest offer of a fabulous glass brooch waiting to be won by a lucky newsletter subscriber http://indiecontests.com/category/contest So check out Indiepublic, Indiecontest and the CGGE.
