Macro Monday is on hold today for my exciting announcement.....Finally my ETSY store is open! YAY! I'm so excited, after lots of planning and dreaming... I am taking the plunge. It is a rather low-risk way of enjoying your hobby. There have been some very helpful articles on some fabulous blogs such as designsponge that have really helped me plan and focus. And the fabulous book "Craft Inc. Turn your creative hobby into a business" which I have banged on about a lot - was invaluable. I have also got great support in my husband (who is a clever and patient graphic artist) family and friends who have encouraged me to 'have a go'.
Thanks to the other helpful crafty ladies who have:
- Given me great advice - thanks Posie
- Allowed me to use their photos - thanks Amanda
- Cheered me on - thanks Gret, Lisa, Jenn
- Inspired me with their lovely online stores and blogs - Cakies, Sarah Jane and Grosgrain
I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed styling and taking the photos. Hubby took the ones of my head and the gorgeous photos of the girls are Amanda's kids and photos.
What fun!
Congrats .. hope it all goes well
