Life

Well, things are going great with my etsy stuff. I still only have two sales of stuff I have made on etsy, but I have sold a few things to friends who have requested stuff, so fun. Right now I am finishing up making two scarves for an old friend and for a new friend I am making adorable little girl hats. I just finished making similar hats for my cousins twins! They turned out so adorable, can't wait to see the girls with them on. I am so busy from now until Christmas. I think with knowing that Jerry and I are leaving the day after Christmas for the Bahams is what is stressing me out. So much has to be done before Christmas, including packing us and having Taylor and her stuff ready for staying at her grandparents house. But one step at a time. Things are one by one getting done, which is awesome! But it is like school I stress until things start getting done. Even though it school you are given four to five months to get all of a sememsters worth of work done, it didn't matter it just felt like it was all due the next day. That was a great lesson for me in school to learn, start getting stuff done, the stress goes as the list gets smaller. So that is what I am doing. All the Christmas decorations are almost done and will be by Saturday. Christmas cards start going out by tomorrow, so by next week they should all be delivered and done. By the end of this week my friends scarves will be done and I will be able to get working on the hats. The hats should take no longer than two weeks, with plenty of time for Christmas! So that is how crazy my life is right now. Now I am just hoping to see my etsy store sell a few more already made items!

Christy's Little Shop

Well, like I said last time, I have now sold two items that I have made on etsy. Unfortunately I haven't sold anything since. But I have sold through friends and family a few items. I sold a scarf, a beanie hat, and a baby boy blanket. All of them loved them. I am in the process of making two hats for my cousins twins. I am sooo excited about that project. I just started and it seems to be coming along great. Now I am just hopefull that I might be able to sell a few more items on etsy. I do love etsy, but sometimes I wish it wasn't so hard getting started on selling stuff. But thankfully I have sold a couple of things, now I just hope it starts picking up a bit more.

A Sale

I just got my first sale on etsy!!! I am so excited. I was starting to think I would never sell anything. But Praise the Lord, He has allowed for me to finally get my business started!!! The best part is the blanket that sold was one of my favorite baby boy blankets that I made! So it is encouraging. Well, that is all for now. At least I got a chance to post another post!!!

New Posting

Okay, so I am so bad at keeping up on my blog. I guess it is time to at least try. My etsy store doesn't seem to be much of a success at all. Bumber. I am trying to think of other ways to sell my hand made things. Maybe going to a craft fair, posting them on ebay. Not sure yet. But I am thinking that I might as well keep making stuff so that I have a nice size inventory. If you know of anyone wanting a hand made crocheted baby blanket you should let them know about my store on etsy. I am also about to put a belt I made on there and some adorable earrings, and I am in the process of making a necklace too. So if you haven't yet checked out my store you should. It is princessandq.etsy.com.

princessandq.etsy.com

Okay so I have mentioned before that I have a store on etsy. I have also inherited all of my grandmother's old yarn. Since I love to crochet, I have started making stuff with it. But of course I don't baby blankets up the wazoo, so I decided to sell what I make in my etsy store. So far I have only had one sale, yarn that I did not want to work with. It wasn't much. But I wanted to post this blog reminding or letting people who didn't know before that I have this store. I know that there are lots of babies on the way, and wanted to let everyone I can that I have a few items for babies for sale in my store. So I ask that you at least go and check it out. I have checked on different store websites on regular blankets, and found that my prices are pretty competitive. Granted mine also takes into account for the fact that I have spent time on the peice. Plus when looking at other things for sale on etsy, my prices are rather low. If you are interested in something and you live here near by, I will remberss you the shiping and get the item to you personally. So go ahead, take a look and see if there is anything you might like. Thanks,

Christy
