Having an Etsy account has been an up and down ride. Not fun like a roller coaster, a bit nauseating like a drive on a winding road. Then low and behold a sell. I was so excited I made a matching Giraffe (I know it looks like a quarter house. You can find a lovely tutorial on Make it and Like it) and included a handwritten note. I get get to the UPS store product in hand and a smile on my face. The cute gal behind the counter smiles back and says "that will be $15.00 please." Are you kidding me! I quickly ran to the post office. Where I payed $4.95 to mail for first excited sale that ended up costing me.
There are a lot of wonderful Etsy accounts of there. Go ahead and visit whenever you can. I will link a few soon.

I have always wondered if having an Etsy shop was worth the hassle! Congrats on your first customer, it was so sweet of you to throw in the cute giraffe too! I love that blog you suggested, thanks for pointing me in that direction!
