That's a lot! I guess I just didn't think about people buying for Christmas so early. I guess I should have since every store you go in already has Halloween things on sale and Christmas stuff out.<br /><br />I'm wondering if I should just skip the Halloween crafts and save them for next year and jump right into the Christmas crafts.<br /><br />I already started on some Christmas stuff but thought for sure that I had time before I needed to put them out. Guess I was wrong. I have so many great ideas that I guess I better get started. Don't wanna be late.<br /><br />So if you are interested in christmas candle decorations, napkin rings with place mats, and tons of other things keep and eye on my shop. Christmas stuff will be popping up soon.<br /><br />mlaval05.etsy.com<br /><br />Thanks :)mlavalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150800212989531262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-654600091012907260.post-73250859692342935382009-09-18T16:09:00.001-07:002009-09-18T16:13:52.941-07:00Cancelled Give A WayI guess my give a way idea was a bust. I was trying to think "outside" the box. I guess I need to come up with something a little better than free shipping.<br /><br />The more I think about it the more I realize that everyone does free shipping or a free gift.<br /><br />My goal for my etsy shop isn't to be like everyone else. I want to be different. I want people to know that I care about my customer and want to make sure that they not only like my items but they love them.<br /><br />I haven't figured out how to do that yet. I'm still brainstorming. I'm sure I will come up with something soon. I hope.<br /><br />Until then I just wanted to post a blog and tell everyone that I've cancelled my give a way. Not that it was helping any.<br /><br />I also wanted to let everyone know that I care about your feedback, good or bad. However, I would like it if it wasn't horrible. :)<br /><br />I guess I'm off to figure out what people want and the best way to sell it.<br /><br />Any ideas? Please let me know.<br /><br />Thanks!mlavalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150800212989531262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-654600091012907260.post-79012214641878080772009-09-17T17:41:00.000-07:002009-09-17T17:44:35.213-07:00New Halloween ItemI have a new item in my shop.<br /><br />I made a Halloween Wreath.

I didn't know when I made my shop on esty that so much work had to go into it. It's pretty complicated. First you need a shop, then a blog, a facebook and twitter. Most of those I had never heard of and I don't know how to work facebook. Not only that but you need to chat on etsy.<br /><br />I feel like I'm always on the computer. If I'm always on the computer when am I supposed to have time to make things?<br /><br />I guess I need to get more organized...who knows.<br /><br />All I know is that even though this is alot of work...and I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm happy. I love my shop. It makes me feel good. It's fun and exciting. Plus I have made some pretty nice friends from etsy.<br /><br />So I guess if you look at the big picture...I'm one of those lucky people who have a job that they love. If it's something you love then it doesn't seem like work. It's just fun.<br /><br />I'm sure I will make mistakes but I will learn. And I will get better.<br /><br />So, I hope that you will check out my work in progress shop and I hope that you will keep checking it out. Maybe one day I will have something that you will love.<br /><br />Thanks for the support.<br /><br />~mlaval~mlavalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150800212989531262noreply@blogger.com0
