When it rains...

Do you remember me complaining, eeh...I mean telling you that my first craft show did not go as well as I had hoped.  Well, I didn't get the sales I had hoped for that weekend but I'm so glad I did the show because it has resulted in some great things.  Man, when it rains it pours!

One of my customers from the show contacted me about a week later and placed my first wholesale order. I was so excited!  I met her with trunk load of items and she bought them all.  I was a happy girl.

One of the other crafters from the show has asked me to make her a super cute wedding cake topper for her wedding. {I'm sharing pictures of the idea below}

To top it off another sweet customer from the show contacted me through my Etsy shop and I'm working on a few custom orders for her.  I'll share those later...I don't want to risk ruining the surprise for those whom she is ordering for!

Lately I have had several custom orders...mainly for weddings.  Maybe I've found my niche.  We'll see.

Here are some of the wedding items Ive been working on lately.

  8. Ѕtart this gamе out by saying, “Ӏ'm going on a trip and I'm
    bringing. Аnd, of course, the treasures сan be anуthing
    yоu сan thіnk of thаt woulԁ have signifіcant value within
    youг particular fаmіly unіt. Some of these
    are video games based aгound wіnter themeѕ, playable online through
    a user's web browser. This kind of board game can take you back in time and enhance the knowledge of history. I would recommend that you only play woodchips with a larger group on a larger area or a smaller group on a smaller area to keep the flow of people being tagged going.

  12. Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?

    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended
    up losing many months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?

    knew where I could find a captcha plugin for my comment form?
    I'm using the same blog platform as yours and I'm having trouble finding one?

    Thanks a lot!

  14. With letterforms that appear twisted from barbed wire, Lupus Blight meets your entire badass tattoo lettering needs.

    Considered among the first tattoos imprinted unintentionally,
    tribal tattoo was utilised by primitives by trying fire.
    Tribal tattoo images are designed around the globe though
    they've different meaninig from culture to culture. Find the most up-to-date designs from Girls tattoos small of the back to Girls star tattoo. The Hawaiian tribal tattoos use the Polynesian cultures which have easy and curvilinear shapes.
