Poison + Apples = My Newest Addition to the Shop!

So, today I unveiled my newest project: Hair Accessories! Woohoo! I listed Sweet n' Punky Poison Apple Hair Pins, in sets of 2 for $5.00 a pair. Here's the listing: http://www.etsy.com/listing/52555046/sweet-n-punky-poison-apple-hair-pins

Next, I'll be working on some Kawaii hair clips, which I am super excited for. I just wish I was getting some sales this month! Good golly! I even mentioned a Sale #10 Sale on my fanpage (http://www.facebook.com/kissvamps) but still no sales, and my fanpage is very inactive on my fans' parts, which is a bummer! I would love to be able to interact with them!

But, it's already looking like I need to order more cabochons for my clips, which is a good thing!

I am not sure what else is coming soon, but I'll be sure to keep in touch! In the meantime, please check out my shop! http://kissvamps.etsy.com

Can you say, "Kawaii"?

So, I am taking another leap of faith that will hopefully produce better results than my last one. I am venturing into the world of hair accessories. Soon, I'll be introducing two new clips: poison apples and kawaii baby deer.

I am hoping that even though these items won't cost much, they will help bring in other sales, and sales=profit.

I'm also working on a business plan so I can get real with kissvamps on Etsy.

Keep an eye on my shop for the newest additions! http://kissvamps.etsy.com

Ok, so...

I picked up 4 more followers! Thanks for following guys!

Business was good last month. This month, I have only had one sale. Part of it is my fault, though, because I haven't been on Etsy as much because I went on vacation.

I am considering having a Sale # 10 sale but I'm only at 7 on Etsy... hmmm... What do you think?

I have some supplies I need to list and a necklace to make. I just need to find the time! I have been so busy lately! I think I am also going to look for a new job so that I am getting paid more than once a month. We shall see how that goes. I need more income!

Well, I just have time for a quick update! Take care!

Good Golly It's Been a While

So... it has been a month and 2 days since my last post! OUCH!

Well, the month of June was bittersweet. I had 4 sales (including 1 non-Etsy sale) and that was great. This month, I have been featured in two treasuries:

http://www.etsy.com/treasury/4c3152ba55036d917cd0d29d/late-for-tea

And I have had one sale! It was my fastest sale EVER!

I made 4 items the other night, one of them was the button bracelet I sold yesterday, one is the Pretty in Pink Lariat: http://www.etsy.com/listing/50795750/pretty-in-pink-giant-ring-lariat and the other two are coming soon, along with my newest adventure- SUPPLIES!

Another record: My shop is the fullest it has ever been! My plan is to keep expanding it until I can't handle another single item. We shall see.

Now that I have my own office space, I am loving it. I have the computer desk, two rubbermaid drawer bins, a box for ready-to-ship stuff, some tackle boxes and a couple bead boxes. I think that Etsy is the most organized part of my life.

So, it would seem that Etsy is really starting to pay off for me. I hope my success continues!

Thanks for reading! I'll try to get back on again soon!
