Time to Get Serious
Unfortunately it's been a while since I blogged but since then a lot has changed and I finally feel like I'm ready to put in the work to make a name for myself in the handmade world. Two very exciting things have taken place recently. First of all I MADE MY FIRST ETSY SALE!! Now if you've read my previous bogs you're probably thinking 'yeah....you already made two' but those were to family and friends. I finally made my first sale to a complete stranger and let me tell you it felt AWESOME.
About two weeks ago I was in Seattle sharing a hotel room with my parents visiting family. I was fast asleep when my phone made a noise that sounded like a cash register. When my parents asked what it was I sleepily replied "The x-ray machine." I'm still not exactly sure what I was dreaming that prompted that response from me, but when I groggily wiped my eyes and checked my phone I saw the alert from my etsy app telling me that I made a sale. Instantly I was wide awake and over joyed. As soon as I told my parents that the noise was not an x-ray machine but an etsy sale they were equally ecstatic. The three of us had a little celebration, I immediately updated my facebook status to share the good news and eventually went back to sleep.
In other news, one of my absolute favorite blogs, Champagne lifestyles on a beer budget is letting me do a guest post!! Check it out next week for my tutorial on how to make a tufted headboard like these:
