Well, I have really lost track of time now! It’s been a crazy month complete with overindulgences in hockey (Lord Stanley, how I love thee…) and busy weekends unfortunately filled with time used for things other than crocheting and jewelry making. But I’m finally starting to get back on track!
I’ve been crafting like crazy for the past two weeks now making mostly dish/washcloths for our community yard sale on June 27th. In addition to all of the extra goodies and clothes we’re trying to get rid of, I thought it would be a great idea to get my name out there by selling some of my wares at our yard sale. Our development is home to a lot of wonderful senior citizens and I know that the dish/washcloths will be a huge hit. I’m also going to be setting aside some time to make some more earrings in the hopes of selling those as well. I feel like the yard sale will be a great way to kind of dip my toes into the sales water. It will provide a great flow of potential customers and a comfortable sales environment (no fear of the lady in the craft fair booth next door having stuff that I worry looks ten times better than mine!).
Also, I’m really looking forward to attending my first First Friday at Yarn Love, a cozy little yarn shop located on Quarry Road in Hummelstown, PA. I’ve wanted to attend for the past couple of months but life has gotten in the way. So I’m very excited and will be sure to report back here on a surely great experience filled with crafting and meeting other knitters and crocheters! So if you’re in the area, be sure to stop in with your project! They will be open until 9PM.
I will be sure to post some pictures of my dish/washcloth sets and some other goodies in my next post. I’m also hoping to talk about a great swap experience I just shared with a fellow etsy-er. So until then, happy crafting!
