So much radness

I was contacted yesterday for the best custom piece ever. The bide is getting married while running the rock & roll half marathon in Vegas! Her outfit is super cute and fun.

I can't wait to start on this one! Hopefully the word will spread that i like nutty custom jobs :)

UGH.

Have you heard about this vacation mode issue on Etsy?

No friggen wonder my sales/views have been down!!!

I sort of feel like they should give me a free month of fees or something....I mean, shouldn't they have sent an email out?

1 Step at a Time....

So it seems that my shops are finally starting to pick back up after having a slow month following my 2 week vacation mode. I have definitely been spending more money than i am making as well with all the new changes and trying to roll out new styles and such.

However, i think the initial investment phase is over and now i can start getting new stuff out there. I'm getting a tad worried that all of this might not happen fast enough and i may end up having to get a real job...again. boo.

Ive been lightly considering getting a micro loan for advertising...Just bumping my budget for my ebay ad on google adwords from $2 to $4 a day made a huge difference...so imagine what $50 a day would do. I think that is getting a bit ahead of things but you know what i mean.

I don't know i think i am just in that place of - what happens next. I had a steady flow of income, a legal small business and all that good stuff in California. Here in Georgia I have not even gotten my drivers license yet never the less registered my business.

1 step at a time I guess.

I hope you are all well!

What do you think?

I need your help!

Ok so I am in the process of having my own e commerce site built so that I can stop paying etsy and ebay fees. To do this I need to come up with a new domain name.

What do you think of ColorfulVeil.com? How about BraveBrides.com? BraveBrideVeils.com?

I think my vote is with ColorfulVeil.com....

What do you think?

I'm Baaaaaack!

Hello All!

Ok so, I am back to having etsy/ebay as my full time job and I will for sure start blogging again.

We just moved across the country and my supplies came today so I can open the shops back up soon.

I have a ton of new ideas, materials, and discussions to have with you all so stay tuned!

Holiday Hit List

So I have a big show this weekend- The Holiday Hit List. There are 75 vendors, a fashion show and djs. There was a HUGE turn out last year so hopeful we will get the same this year.

In preparation I have been slowly making hair pieces and not taking the time to list them in etsy but instead just putting them in my craft show box. I counted today and i have 131 pieces, new and old. If I don't sell anything I am going to have a LOT of new stuff to put up in my shop!

This will most likely be my last craft show in CA. It has not been very profitable for me and i dont have much time these days. So I will be selling all my supplies (tent, tables, chair, etc) sometime very soon.

So wish me luck and if any of your are in the area, stop by!

Love, Teneisha aka 10eisha

inhale....exhale.

I have decided to put my etsy shop on vacation mode for a week. I need to catch up and figure out a better system to shipping and all that. I sure as hell can not run to the post office for international orders everyday! I also need to do my business taxes. bla.

Wish me deep breaths.
