Good morning to all my faithful followers.

Here it is the first week of the new year and things are winding down. I am actually able to take time to sit and work on my crafts. I am working on teacups that have flowers on them. After that I will be working on little tabs with "P2" on them to hang from my products as my logo. My new business cards came in the mail yesterday and they look good. I plan on selling at the flea market this spring and summer. I have been going through my patterns to decide what to make for the sale. I am getting excited. Well that's about it for this morning. I will write more in the days to come.

Christmas stockings

I finally finished the stockings for my girls Christmas parties and they were a huge hit. Not only did the kids like them but so did the parents. I am including a pic of one but there were three different patterns. They were seven inches tall and candy filled. Here is what they looked like. I wish you could have seen the looks on the kids faces when they got them.

Newsletter

My husband and I have been looking into ideas on how to further expand my craftiness. One of the ideas that we came up with was to do a newsletter and eventually turn it into a magazine. I want to do a crafter of the month, featured craft, how-to tips for beginners and even an area where readers can ask questions to other readers and other readers can answer the questions. What would you think? I want your info because you are the people I trust

December update for my fans.

Good evening my friends. Well here it is almost Christmas and I have been working on the stockings for my little girls classes in just over a week. Don't like much getting them done. I spoke to my cousin a couple weeks ago and she told me that she would let me set up shop on the weekends to sell my crafts to get my business going. Now just to get enough inventory built up to last a couple weekends. I am so excited. This is why I have been waiting for. I just need a little exposure. I have my website and finished my catalog. I am also making little tea cups and putting friendship poems on the back of my business cards hanging from the handles. There will be a tea bag inside the cup. I am making basket fulls and going to take to the local doctors offices and beauty salons to get more advertisements. I will keep you posted on how this goes.

November Update

I know that I have not been online in a while but I have been working on some things. I have been getting my inventory together and getting my advertising done. It has not been easy but I am already starting to see it paying off a little. I know that this business is not going to just boom overnight and I know that it is a lot of work and even more waiting but I am here to update you on some good things that are happening.

I have been working on some ideas for my business but have also been working on making plastic canvas stockings for all of the children in both my little girls' classes for their Christmas parties in December. I am making 40 of them to make sure that I have enough for all of the children. They stand approximately a foot tall and will be stuffed to the gills with candy and small gifts for the children. I make something for the Christmas parties every year.

Another thing that I am working on is a thing called "A Cup of Friendship Tea" and I am making a bunch of these and will be putting them in baskets and delivering them to some of the local businesses as gifts to help get my name out there. I have a cousin that has her own beauty salon and she is letting me place a basket there and told me that she would offer all of her clients one. There will be business cards hanging from the handles of the little tea cups with a friendship poem on the back and a tea bag inside of the tea cup. I have been making a list of places to deliver them to. One is my daughters' doctor's office and my husband's doctor's office just to name a couple.

I am still very optimistic about this. I am also designing fliers to mail out to some of my family and friends to help get my name out and also getting my catalog together. I want to eventually get to the point that I can do home shows and maybe even get to become like these other home party companies. Big dreams, huh?

Well, thanks for listening. Please take the time to check out my website and if you see something that you want to order and make a custom order please place the other and then email me at preciouspretties317@gmail.com to give me the details of your order.
