I think I can, I think I can......

I guess it is quite obvious that keeping up with a blog is a very difficult process for me!! Since it is autumn and the leaves are falling and currently being collected by the darling princess, I will try to turn over a leaf and attempt to blog more often. There are many things that I would like to do to make my life more organized and efficient. The list is a long one and I will be ticking the items off one by one, hopefully before the new year so that I will be free and clear of making that dreaded "New Years' Resolution"!! Why must I wait till then, let's start NOW!
I know I can, I know I can.......

Getting Re-Organized

I realized yesterday that I have been avoiding my sewing room because of the chaotic state that it was in!! So guess what my day was spent doing.....
It's not the easiest task when the little 5 year old princess is bringing her toys into the room that your trying to clean, especially the almost life size pink pony that she rides in on!
Reorganized my stash of fabrics, supplies and paperwork. I feel sooooo much better now and actually finished up several totes.
I'm also in the middle of testing out 2 new purse designs. I like to make one and use it a bit to see if it functions as expected. Needs a few tweaks first - then onto production....

Going on Vacation

My Hubby and I will be celebrating our 10yr wedding Anniversary by taking a trip to Cozumel leaving on 5/31!! We are avid divers (DiveMasters actually) and are returning to Cozumel after 10 yrs. We are also staying in the same place, "The Barracuda"!! Good times, Good times!
My shop will still be open but will only be able to ship items when we return on June 8th.
Hopefully, when I return, I will start featuring an Etsy member each week. These features will include newer members and local to my area, Long Island.

Approached by B & M to sell my merchandise

YAY, YIPEE................
I'm so excited. I've been approached by a Sweet Shop that is going to be renting shelving space to local crafters to sell their goods. This will be great for me for more exposure. I will be selling mostly smaller items like the Kayla Purses and the Christy Clutches. The shop also hosts birthday parties for children and create party favors. I think it would be great to make little totes for these favors. So many ideas!!!! I need to go sew up a storm. Will update when I have more info regarding this..
Oh, I almost forgot, I'm in a BLOG. Check it out and comment so that I can get to the front page!!!

April 30, 2008

I've been working diligently to create some new designs and I am quite happy with them. I now have the Kayla Coin Pouch added to my store as well as the Sophie Sling Sac.
Some new materials are on the way also including some Amy Butler and Micheal Miller.

Mother's day is just around the corner, check out my Shop for some wonderful gifts!

Well, I've finally opened my shop on ETSY!! I've been sewing and photographing like a madwoman to get it up and running. So far, I'm happy with the way that it looks, but still needs alot of improvement, and alot more items.
I've been hitting the forums alot, and have gotten alot of views and heart on the shop.
My next step will be to promote, promote, promote outside of the etsy forums.
