Etsy marketing

Building a business online can have its challenges and things don't always work the way I planned. Coming up with ideas is never a problem, but finding the time to implement them or bring them to fruition often take a lot more work than initially planned. I recently discovered this site that is a fantastic resource for learning about how to connect your business and creativity to the world out there! http://meylah.com/blog/247/How-to-Write-Product-Descriptions-That-Seal-the-Deal.

Take a moment and check it out. It is so great when people are willing to share their experiences and tips/tricks for us all to benefit.

Spring Cleaning and more

Why is it every spring I am the best at creating make work projects? It started at the end of the February, my husband and I started to finally reorganize all the stationery products to get a start on the spring inventory and cleaning. Through this venture, we decided that our basement is so big, we really don't need to consume the whole space with stationery products. As my FT job (not the stationery job) was coming to an end, we came up with the brilliant idea to build a suite and that is what we did.

However in this brilliant move, we ended up agreeing with a tenant that the suite would be done by April 1st. So the work began. Late nights, lots of work parties and lots of $ and we met the deadline, sort of...April 1 at 3am the suite was finished!

The tenant was excited to move in and my husband and I could sit back and relax with a deep sigh of relief and exhaustion. So really my spring cleaning hasn't even begun yet, but c'est la vie.

As for the stationery, it is all now reorganized and I love it, and of course takes up a much smaller space.
