I have been a onesie making fool lately......and that's A-OKAY! I'm so thankful for everyone who has supported my little business and ordered outfits. I'm especially thankful for all the returning customers who have made multiple orders. Sometimes it gets a little stressful because I feel like I'm spending all my days off making onesies and running around to craft stores to buy supplies, but I really do enjoy doing it. After all, I'm not one to really sit down and relax in my free time. It's been a huge blessing to have the extra money lately. It's been super slow at the salon due to the economy and the heat and I'm really grateful that I've gotten a lot of orders recently. I've been thinking a lot lately about starting an Etsy shop. For those of you who don't know, Etsy is a website where sellers can display their items and customers can shop all in one spot. Most of the sites are selling homemade items. You do have to pay a small fee of $0.20 per item you place on your site and then you pay a 3.5% tax on each item sold. I think it would be a good way to expand my business outside of the area and sell to people that I don't know personally. The only thing holding me back is the time factor. I'm not so sure I'll have enough time to pick up any more orders. This is where I need your help and advice. Do you think I should start an Etsy shop, or should I continue to just do business through Facebook? I would also make cake stands and other various homemade crafts on my site. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment and let me know what you think. I really need a second opinion! Again, thank you to everyone who has ordered from me....I'm extremely grateful for you! If you or anyone you know is interested in placing an order, please message me on Facebook! Here are the most recent outfits:
