It has been a long while since I’ve done an update on my Etsy shop. Partially because I was tired and sick for a few months (now you know why! yay! openness and honesty!) and partially because I am just. so. darn. busy. and crafting has taken a back burner (to things like freelance design jobs and long work hours and a new class and episodes of Freaks and Geeks).
Well, Mike was gone this weekend and I went on a sewing binge – sewing fourteen coffee sleeves and an adorable throw pillow for our couch. It was glorious. And completely therapeutic to watch movie after movie while I measured, cut, and sewed my heart out.
Clockwise from top left: creamy blue mod – set of four coasters, small rose earrings in peachy pink, neutral and cozy – set of four coasters, lilac and aqua – a set of hair pins, tons of coffee sleeves in adorable fabrics, funky elegance – choose a ring.
I also have a few deals going on right now including half off felted goodies and a few ring with purchases over $15.
My Etsy shop always brings me so many wonderful interactions with fabulous people. Last month, I created an order of adoption announcements for a lovely woman in Louisiana who adopted the most adorable child EVER from Korea. She even sent me photos of her homecoming and it made me a bit teary-eyed. Etsy creates stories out of commerce. And I love that.
I’m so excited that I’ve now entered what my little sister calls “The Golden Trimester,” (seriously? They learned it in their family and parenting class in high school. It had better be golden!) and will have more energy to put towards my shop. No more 9pm bed times for me. (Okay, maybe just a few.)
