My journey through becoming a self-sustained individual, through the world of Etsy, as well as a little "how-to" information from time to time.

Slowwwww....

So my etsy store has been pretty slow lately. But my life hasn't been! I had 4 kids here for a few days (ages 12, 12, 8, and 2). It was super interesting to be sure. I am  pretty sure that I'm a "one and done" kind of girl after that! My poor pets may never recover!

Today I finally launched my Etsy baby line. I'm starting with hats, and I know it's not the season for them, but my line of preemie hats (also here) are always in season. They're also appropriate for American Girl size dolls and other stuffed animals and dolls that have the same size heads. I am going to donate a preemie hat for every one that I sell to the CAMC (Charleston Area Medical Center) NICU (Neonatal Intesnsive Care Unit) where my friend Jessica works. They use them to maintain their body temperatures when the babies are moved from the incubators into cribs.

So stop by and check out what's happening with myself and other Etsy vendors and let me know what you think!

I Fed Somebody

     Well, my first "I Fed Somebody" project is up and for sale on Etsy!  I am really thrilled with the way it turned out! And in the first 7 minutes, it already has 10 views! This might be the most popular venture in my store so far! I can't wait to start making donations to CEDEINFA!!

Fourth of July weekend was incredible! My cousin Justin and his girlfriend Mika came to Maryland to visit and we went to Gettysburg one day and then DC on the Fourth.
Nathan and me at the Smithsonian...

The group at the Lincoln Memorial which is where we watched the fireworks!

We had a great time and I would definitely do it again, even though the crowds were nuts!!

Head over and check out my etsy shop!
