It is really not easy to sell online on Etsy, since there are thousands of talented crafters also listing their fantastic handmade items there, but..finally I got my first sales and it is from Singapore. A loving mother who ordered Peppa Pig inspired name tags for her beloved daughter and her classmates. This is not my first sales, though, but it is my first Etsy's order.
I am quite excited while packing the order because I love pretty packaging and always enjoy doing it. I wrapped each name tag in a transparent plastic and sealed with a red decorative wire and arrange them safely in my pretty packaging box. I attached a hand written 'Thank You' note on a sweet doily paper, put it on the top of the box so that the 'Thank You' note is the first thing the recipient will see. It will create a closer and more personal connection between me and my customer. And of course, not forgetting to insert my business card in the box :)
Thank you so much Yenny Shin for your trust in my art work. Hope the children will love their personalized name tags ^^
Hi...I know it sounds strange to say unusual Saturday holiday, hahaha..because I usually teach on Saturday from 9am to 4pm. Saturday is the busiest day, a day full of piano music and beautiful voices of my husband's students. My husband is a vocal teacher and choir conductor.
Holiday means craft day and I can sit on my craft table the whole day accompanied by my little boy playing with his toys scattered all over the carpet and my husband lying down watching TV. Sometimes we go out hunting good food, too. I am so blessed that my husband and I share a lot in common, we love travelling and enjoying good food...my son is now under training :D
I tend to do overlapping work to avoid boredom, such as making heads, leave it dry and make something else. I make a few orders together at the same time. In my previous posts I was posting about making Peppa Pigs, but before I was done, I already started making something else...I guess this is a bad habit...but I can't help it.
Here is the video of my Peppa Pig pendant, the feet swing

Now is the picture of my other overlapping work...
The miniature of a lucky girl who will receive a surprise birthday frame gift from her beloved boyfriend. He requested to put all her favorite stuff in the frame, such as her lovely bunny pet, favorite bag, flowers, shoes and birthday cake of course.
I believe all of you know which character is this haha
I will sprinkle some glitters on her dress and adorn tiny Swarovsky elements on her braid. I will post some more pictures of her in detail on my next post.
