Finally beefing up my Etsy Store!

[mupcycledcouture]

For my post-Ebay career I am moving towards.... clothing sales! Except in a different size. 

I am finally beefing up my Etsy store. Seriously, I cant tell you how much I LOVE making doll clothes. I need small quick projects due to my ADD and these fit the bill. As long as I make enough to buy more fabric I am OK.

The hardest part is hiding the clothes from my kids. Because their doll has to have EVERYTHING I make. I have already lost 2 formal dresses to the cause. LOL

Bravo to you! It's so satisfying when what you make with your own hands sells to someone that loves it. I was thinking about trying doll clothes. God knows I have the fabric and the patterns but they're so tiny... I'll stick with aprons. And I LOVE your logo/banner. When I log in later I'll fave your shop :-)

I use to sell bitty baby size doll clothing on Ebay for a few years. I had the same problem. The girls would always try to take everything for their dolls so I would wind up making duplicates LOL I wouldn't have that problem anymore but don't think I could do the small patterns anymore. Good luck with your store, I added it to my favorites.

I'm so jealous of people who can create things...I can make dinner and a mess. That's about it LOL

Aimee - I went last week to your Etsy store to see if you had any of the cherry facial scrub for sale - I need some!

Will you be selling it again and if so, please let me know when you have it available.

Thanks!

I think I have some cherry down stairs! I will look tomorrow and let you know.

Jeremy; I am jealous of non crafty people. I love being crafty and creative but wish I could also be organized and not a hot mess.

I am not crafty, not organized, and I am definitely a hot mess.

But, I am OK with that.

Congrats!

Wow, that was quick- congratulations!! You're gonna rock on Etsy :-)

Looks good!!!

I, too, thought about selling doll clothes but I really hate to sew anything more then once.

[chapeaunoir]

I just favourited your store! I've doing OK on Etsy despite it being a bit of a hobby shop. I really like selling over there so far (just really started in September 2015 though I claimed the shop name in 2008 when I signed up there).

Congrats on a sale already!

I noticed someone new had liked it, will go and follow you!

I can honestly spend hours each day sewing and not feel relaxed and happy. Funny thing is, my husband asked me if I wanted an LV for our 15th wedding anniv. and I told him nope! New sewing machine! (The LV would be cheaper honestly. LOL)

I have spent over a year trying to faithfully keep Ebay going but I am getting to the point where I dont WANT to. I rarely ever shop any more! I still have tons of unlisted stuff that I list here and there, but I am not stressing over it. If it gets listed great! If not, it will next time I feel like listing.

It is encouraging that I sold something on Etsy so quickly.

Congratulations!  I remember my first Etsy sale, I freaked out...I had no clue how to ship something!  I had been listing away and didn't think that shipping would be so different from Ebay!

I "favorited" your shop but I can't figure out how to "follow".

[Dawn R]

I did both and then I pinned on Pinterest. Don't know how much it will help, but figured it can't hurt.

You guys rocks!
