One little step for crafting...

Well I finally got an order today!  I had someone order two hats from me.  One of the crocodile stitch and one of the slouchy hats.  Its not much but hey its a start.  So all together I have a total of 6 sales in my shop and am hoping for more.

Sitting looking out at the rainy day today makes me think of the cold weather we have coming out way soon, so make sure you get your order in for a hat or a pair of slippers to keep warm on those cold winter days and nights!!

New items

Just finished a slouchy hat for my etsy site :)  Its pretty sweet I love it and love the colour!  I hope that its a good seller, would love to see a few more sales come my way getting a little frustrated but all good things come to those who wait right?  Anyway just wanted to leave an update on the new item in the shop, please check it out!!  http://www.etsy.com/listing/81729071/slouch-hat

A little jump in business!!

Alright so the site is up and running great!  Again the link is http://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetashoneycreation incase anyone wants to check it out lol.

I also recently went in and spoke with a business in Penticton BC about possibly getting a few of my things put in their store for sale.  They agreed to put in my baby hats that look like pumpkins, carrots, blueberries, etc.!!  So the first order is a trial run I need to make her up about 8 hats in total with business cards and care instructions.  I am so excited!  I hope things go well and that this could be an opportunity for me to expand my business a little more!  Its not much of a start but hey you have to start somewhere right?  I currently have 3 hats of the 8 done, so I am getting there.  Its a lot of work but I so hope it pays off in the end, I love crafting things and it would be awesome if I could stay at home with my little guy and use my crafts as a means of income :)

Anyway I just wanted to give a quick up date on the situations and how things are going.  As soon as I get all the hats ready and at the shop I will let everyone know where you can find them.  In the meantime you can order them all off my website!

Starting up an Etsy Site...

So I recently had a baby, well ok not that recently he will be exactly 3 months tomorrow September 5th.  So this means I have been thrown into the routine of bottles, diapers, laundry, etc.  Now don't get me wrong I love having my little guy around but in order to stay at home where I feel I need to be right now I have had to give up my job.  I know it sounds great, all this time home from work who would complain.  But I really do miss the go go go of having a job (I haven't been without one for years since I was at least a teenager in high school).  So to take up what little spare time I do have I have decided to pour more or my (leftover) energy into getting my Etsy site going.  I figured to maybe get the word out about my site and all my little crafty ideas I put up for sale I would start a blog about my adventures on finding my way through the world of home business lol.  Thanks to all who stop by and take the time to read my blog and please check out my website and leave me any comments you might have!  http://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetashoneycreation
