I'm taking a leap

Sorry if some of you are getting this post twice...I'm trying to activate the Networked Blogs Application and I'm just not sure it's working. I should say that I'm just not sure I'm techie enough to figure it out.



Not off of a bridge or anything remotely that drastic. I'm talking about a leap of faith. I decided to open up an Etsy shop to try to sell some homemade goodies. I am starting with only 3 item to "test" the waters. I know a lot of people are successful on Etsy but I also know that a newbie like me could easily get lost in the shuffle...there is SO much on Esty, not to mention some seriously talented people. So, here goes nothing. I'm starting with the three heart shaped wreaths below (they also now appear on the left hand side under "My Esty Shop").












I thought with Valentine's Day around the corner that they would be appropriate.

They may sell, they may  not but I guess I will never know unless I try.

Have a great day!

  4. I love the fact that they are not typical
    Valentine colors. I love the pinks and reds, but it is nice to see something different.
