Christmas is Around the Corner

I've just opened up a new section in my shop! Christmas Stockings! I only have one listed right now, but I should have a few more soon! However, the thing I am most excited about is the Christmas Stocking tutorial I am working on. I hope to have it available for purchase by November 18th, if not sooner! So, check my shop at the first of next week to see if it is available. Here is a picture of the stocking I have listed right now.

And the Results are In

Well, my first craft show of the Holiday season has come and gone. I did better than I had expected, so I'm quite pleased with the results. It was a fun day too. I got to hang out with my mom and sister and I always love doing events like this. It's a lot of fun to talk to customers. That's the problem with selling online, you never get to meet your buyers. Anyway, I had a good time. I finally sold this quilt. It's been one of my favorites for a long time and I'm glad to see it find a home. I hope the little one that received it enjoys it! It's kind of funny though. Although I did sell a few blankets, the majority of my sales came from Hair clips and accessories. I'm glad I have a wide variety of items for sale. I think people like having a few things to choose from. Anyway...

I just want to thank For the Love of Baby for blogging about my shop this week! You can win a $15 dollar gift certificate from my shop, so take a look at the post!

Upcoming Craft Shows

November is almost here and thus the time for Holiday Craft Shows! I am signed up here in Logan for 2. The first one is November 8th, from 10-3 at Pioneer Valley Lodge - located at 2351 North 400 East. This is a fairly small Craft Show, but last year there were some awesome vendors! Come take a look. The other Craft Show I'm doing is NOVEMBERFEST! Yes, sigh, I decided to go out on a limb and try it. I'm sweating bullets that it will go. I've never paid such a high entrance fee, but Novemberfest is a big event here in Logan. I'm pretty confident that I will at least make my fees back, although I'm hoping to do awesome! Novemberfest is Friday, November 28th, 10-7 and Sat. November 29th, 10-6 at 195 South 100 West. I believe there is a small entrance fee, maybe a dollar or so. But this is a huge event. Over 100 vendors will be there and I'm sure you'll be find something for everyone on your shopping list. So come and visit me at one or both of these fun holiday events! You are sure to find lots of these there! Minky Blankets!This past month I have been going crazy trying to get ready for these shows. I can't believe how much sewing I've done. I have to admit though that I am getting a little burnt out and will be taking a break after Novemberfest. During the month of November, I won't have anything for sale in my shop that isn't already made and then after Novemberfest, I will just be trying to sell out my inventory. I'm not sure what my plans are for the beginning of next year, but I'm sure I'll still be selling on Etsy.

Another Milestone

Today, I reached 500 Sales on Etsy! WooHoo! A year ago, I never thought I would reach this milestone so quickly! It's been fun getting here. I am still so excited about every single sale. This has been a great experience for me. I've learned a lot of new things and have heightened a lot of my skills along the way. It's been fun. Now, I'm looking forward to the next 500 sales and many more! Thanks to everyone that has helped me out along the way.This is a picture of my 500th item sold! Pink Flamingo Onesie. The last one!
