I finally made something new

Last updated : February 28, 2016

With the long Holiday weekend, I finally took some time and felt inspired enough to do a bit of creating. 

First I grabbed my “maybe some day” journal that I slap my leftover paint in. Then grabbed my scrap bucket. This was just sort of something to remind myself that I actually could make something again.

After that I felt like I could be on a roll. I was thinking about gifts for teachers, casual friends and just those “oh gosh I totally forgot about so and so” gifts. It’s always good to have a little stash of items around without breaking the bank.

These are a couple of altered composition books that I may keep for gifts or maybe list in my etsy store.
Yes, you read that right…
I finally got up the nerve to actually list some things in my storefront. I’ve been busy photographing items to list and then of course writing up the listings. I’m sure once I get a system down it will go quicker.

I can happily say I’ve made my first sale as well. If I’d known it would have happened that quickly I’d have listed stuff months ago.

    Those altered notebooks are great Halle! Maybe someday I will eventually get around to opening up an Etsy shop. Good for you on a job well done in both departments, creating and moving forward. :)
