I opened my etsy store at the end of December and therefore at the end of buying season. It took a long time to finally get my first "real sale"...I mean one that didn't come from a close friend or family member. I was beginning to get a little discouraged seeing myself as a very little fish in a great big jewelry making pond. So I decided to work really hard to promote myself. I spent hours online...you name it I was trying to promote there...and trying to stand out in a sea of beautiful talent. I stumbled on a tutorial on how to make crocheted wire jewelry and I figured that was going to be it...something that few other Etsians are doing...and I was going to finally catch a break.
Since posting my new items I have made 2 sales...in only a few days! My determination is even stronger now to make my Etsy goals and not be able to keep up with all my sales! :)


I think it is so wonderful you are raising money for charity. Your son is adorable.
