Order after order!

That is great! Try to meet as many orders as you can. It sounds like you are likely to have repeat customers there. I do not sell crafts, so I am not facing a holiday crunch. I am,however, facing a time crunch on making a gift for my boyfriend's birthday, which is rapidly approaching.

Wow, good for you jill!!!!!! How do you get these people? Are they just friends that order from you? I'm just curious because you're not going to the holiday show so did they find you at another show? That is just plain awesome to me! I haven't done anything for the holidays, but now that I'm thinking about it, I do have some miniature candles left from last year that I never put up on Ebay to sell. Maybe I'll do that this year and the majority have old victorian images of Santa Claus.

Well, I have been thinking about listing some items on Etsy.com, and even with my busy schedule with the hyperbaric treatments going on still try and do a show Dec. 1st. I did the event last yr. and did Ok. So far Sales are really slow, so I do need a way to get something more going again. But I can remember one time many yrs. ago being so busy I had to put a Stop to orders, and that is a Good thing when it happens?

My daughter is starting to make latch hooks again for the holidays. She earned a good amount of money last year and hopes to expand her projects to other seasons.

I need all the orders I can get, times seem to be getting harder and more higher in prices every year. I try to make things to sell to help with family needs and for gifts also. mostly right now jewelry, earrings bracelets , etc. I love to do all kinds of crafts. I am always trying to make time for crafts especcially if it sells. Christmas is to quick it seems just sneaks upon us... I really need to sell more items. without so much costing to ship and loseing in the long run with cost of supplies.. but helping with needs of others I really at this time have not made much but enjoy making my craftty jewelry and helping others with what I can do.. striving for orders for Christmas and hoping to help put a smile on another face ..God Bless and have a Happy Holiday..

Hi Jil! I've been very busy making my own crafts so I'm not in here much. But I always get around to reading yours sooner or later. I've learned a lot from your experience at crafts. I've been creating inventory according to the season we're in for the upcoming year. I hope I never get caught without inventory in the hopes I'm as successful as you next year! I learned this from you. I'm hoping I've developed a schedule and can discipline myself not to waste precious time. But I can only hope I land up in a similar situation! Congratulations on your success!

I haven't tried to sell much the last few years because I can't do the work the way I used to, but I congratulate you! Your products must be very good. I hope you can keep up with orders and make some decent money at it.

That's exciting! I hope you can get everything done.

I wish! my art is already done. All I need is customers. Enjoy this success! and have a safe trip to your sister's.

That's great! I really wish I were crafty and could earn extra income that way. One of my co-workers is very creative and does that sort of stuff. Personally, aside from lack of creativity, I'm also not very patient and don't think I'd be able to do anything crafty!

That is wonderful news! Too many is a great thing but I also know it can be maddening to try and meet demand. I have been out of time for a while now and am anxious to see the day that I can get beck in to doing what I really enjoy. Congrats again!

That's good that you are getting orders in and making some money. I tend to procrastinate against doing.
