Sale!

Sale's on! Friday through Sunday with shipping Monday! All flower clippies now at 50%off (50 cents each!!) 25 cents off shipping on flower clips too! I have a few more to list whose photos didn't turn out and just a few more to list because I'm tired of listing them. :)

I also have some other wider clips to list. What should I call them though? They're the same size clip just wider ribbon. Wide Clippies? Fatties? lol


I also have some headbands! Woohoo!



I haven't listed the headbands yet though. I'm just happy I found out what that braid is called! Yay!

Just for fun...

Big brother doesn't like being left out.

Today is a working day!

I have a lot to do today! I need to put together some headbands, make more flower clips, and more itsy bitsy clips.

I need to take photos of all the stuff I made and crop them for Etsy.

Then I think I'll upload things. Except the flower clips. I'll do those Thursday night. Actually, I might upload them but make them inactive so they're all ready for the weekend. We'll see how much time I have.

Coming along!

I've been working on flower clips like crazy for next weekend's sale. I hope it goes over well! I have a bunch of new things to add along with the flower clips too! Sale starts Friday, July 31st at midnight and goes through Sunday, August 2nd at 11:59pm and I'll mail everything Monday morning! Maybe some other things might go on sale too! I have things that will become inactive soon due to them being listed for Etsy's set amount of time for listings.

I think I'll create new sections for this so people don't have to search. ;)

I also can't wait for Vista Print to send me my new clip and bow cards! It should be a few weeks but I hope I'm happy with the final product.

I've also got things for Alexander & Co. all made up! No Etsy store yet but soon!

New stuff!

Itsy Bitsy Clippies! Right now they're 1.5 inches compared to the 1.75 inch size! I might go smaller even but looking at them smaller than 1.5 inches seemed weird. I'll have to try it out.

Also, some new things by the end of them month! Along with the itsy bitsy clippies watch for the Flower Clippies Sale July 31st, Aug 1st & 2nd! More details to come. Other things might be on sale those days too! I'll post more details when it gets closer!

Have you ever felt guilty about doing lots of things for someone but left someone else out? Stay tuned for Alexander & Co. (there will be a separate Etsy account for that!). As soon as I get my things together we'll open! I'm hoping to open that same weekend!

Working...

I need to set aside times during the week to work on my things. My fortune said so lol!! It said something about my creative side and to work on it so okay I'll try. It's actually been saying that almost all week. It must mean it right? :)

So...I'm in the middle of listing my hair bows and clippies holders right NOW! Yay! I named them. I have three that I need to take photos of yet. My camera batteries are charging so they'll have to wait. I've decided to let Ellie go. I have a princess one that I can make for Maddie since I didn't notice until after I bought it that there's a chip in it. Oh well. There will always be more Ellies. :)

I've also bagged some non-slip grips! They're going by 50 for now but I'll gladly do some custom orders. Actually, I'll gladly do custom orders on anything!

While I'm waiting for Etsy photos to upload here's a good thought! Etsy should have multi uploads. One at a time isn't working for me. Maybe they do though? I haven't really checked. Maybe I should. Boy, would I feel dumb if they did. lol!

Flower Clippies Now Listed

Yay! I'll be listing my hair bow holders shortly after I make some matching clippies to go with them, take their photos again, crop them, measure them, clean up the living room that my tiniest tornado made a mess in, shower, and then come back to the computer. :)

Some new stuff!

This is Ellie. She's my favorite.




I might not sell her. I got the animals at Michael's and then added all the stuff to it to make hair bow holders! I have a ton more to make too. All different things, mostly animals though. I'm going to have to get another Ellie though. She was the first one I did and since I had to dismantle Maddie's bow board because I mistakenly used the wood that belonged to something important (oops haha) her stuff is just in a bucket now. Here's the other's I have done so far:






I also have some more flower clippies that I'm about to crop to size and list. Then...have you ever just been thinking about something totally different and had a thought? I had one of those in the shower this afternoon lol! It involves flower clippies but in a new way. I'm going to try it out tomorrow...which is in 30 mins so maybe I'll just get a head start in a bit and see how it turns out. I think it will so stay tuned!

Listed!

I listed almost everything now! Woohoo! Now I can get on with making more! I left a few things off and if you're looking for pink they'll be back soon! I had a special request so I deactivated some of my pink listings until Friday.

I also added two new categories: Seasonal Accessories and Flower Clippies. If you're looking for seasonal/holiday stuff it's in there. All the clippies with the flowers are in the other one. I'm going to make a bunch more flowers after I finish my orders!

Etsy Is Frying My Brain

I think I've been on this site half the day. I took more photos of my new things and photos of some others that are already listed. I thought some could use a fresh photo so I've been editing those in between being a mom/wife. I am happy to say that I have almost all the editing done and uploaded. I am also happy to say that after I'm done with the ones already listed I'll start listing my new things! I have about 40 some newbies! Yay! Hopefully by tomorrow night they'll all be listed.

I also added a new category: Flower Clippies. I have tons of these flowers that I can put on clippies and they do need their own section badly. Right now there's only going to be a handful listed until I 1)get my basket back that my mother-in-law's neighbor raided :) and 2) make more. They really only take a few minutes to make once I match colors.

Besides the flower clippies my new projects are going to be Halloween/Fall and Christmas/Winter.

I've also decided on price ranges. I'm going to go with simple clippies at 75¢ each so 2/$1.50 etc. Simple bows on a clippie are $1 as are the flower clippies. Big bows are $3, Medium $2 and in between medium and simple are $1.25. Then there's those other ones that don't follow this pattern and I'll just call them specially priced lol.

I thought hard about opening my Ecrater shop back up but I think I've decided to keep it closed. I was just going to list all single clippies on it but I'm going to make more flower clippies, use those leftover singles that I have, and then see what I have left. Right now I probably have about 40 single clippies. If I can't find a flower combo for some I'll make them their own 75¢ clippies section. :)

So...here's some of the newbies:

This is a barrette!



You like the new photos? I FINALLY found my tripod. Yay!! Now they're not so blurry. :)

Someday I'll get around to ordering some headbands. I should do that soon actually. I had three 1" wide ones that I weaved and they all sold in a garage sale. Wonderful huh? I might also do some scrapbooking embellishments. Ooooh! I knooooow! I have a mondo load of scrapbooking stuff. I just need to get the Cricut from my mom. Watch out for that someday.

I like to use "someday" so that I don't have to set a deadline. :)
