Reading an interesting book..

The Handmade Marketplace - 2nd Edition by Kari Chapin #karichapin

I ordered this from the library just for some ideas on how to improve my store.. both ideas on how to improve items as well as ideas on how to improve contacting people.. This book has lots of ideas.. many that I dont really need as I dont want to have a major business, but just one to sell items as I make them.. I have so many ideas of items to make.. I just dont want to spend the time and money if they dont work out.. a few already havent.. worked out.. 

One of the major sections I found helpful is blogging.. I find this hard to do.. I dont know why.. I shouldnt... but I do.. I need to put this on my To Do List at least once a week just so I have contact with people.. 

I am wondering.. is there any thing in particular you would like me to talk more about.. I will make a list of ideas and see what flows from there.. 

What do you think?

Just working on spicing up my blog.. smile.. I added a few things.. and also moved some stuff around.. what do you think.. better.. worse.. yep.. give me your opinion.. 

My Friday Post!

Busy day for me.. had to get some of my tomatoes cut up and froze.. since they were getting overripe.. have a bunch more to pick later.. I am sure I will enjoy them come winter.. lol.. I love my homemade sauce with my homegrown tomatoes.. smile. 

Sales stuff are keeping me busy.. got a day or so to put up free ads on Ebay.. and I also have some items out on Etsy that are expiring.. so I have to send ads for them.. guess that will keep me busy for the rest of the day.. lol..

These are the items that are expiring on Etsy..  I lowered the prices and the postage (no handling charge now).. I now mail patterns to Canada:  Check them out..

Got it out of my local library.. so far it has given me some good ideas..
