Now that my wonderful sister, Lisa, is back in Iowa and living right next door to me, it's time we put our skills to use together and get going on the web. Lisa is a very detail oriented person and I am a creative person... our skills together compliment each other quite nicely. I have been creating and she is ready to get started detailing my creativeness... lucky me!!!
We're planning to start by listing a few things on Ebay and Etsy to get started and my account is being considered for Lollishops. We hope to wow the world with some of my hand-made creations and with the many vintage things that I sell in my storefront. We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but we are determined to "make-it-work". If you have any suggestions for us, we would love to have any feedback we can.
One of my goals is to keep my blog updated weekly and to show a sampling of what we've been working on. My new laptop should be arriving today and I'm so excited. It will help a ton to have a mobile computer that I can take to the shop and put pictures on easily.
Lisa and I used to do Ebay together back in it's "heyday" and we're looking forward to giving Etsy a try and especially the new and up-and-coming Lollishops site. If you have other suggestions for us on where we should list, bring 'em on!!!
Good luck on your new adventure.
ReplyDeleteI just opened a little gift shop here in Oregon in May. It is a lot of work, a huge learning experience, and a bunch or fun!!!
I think if you keep things in perspective, that it is not your life, but a part of it, you will be OK. Try to keep it fun.
So nice you and your sister are doing it together.
