Epilepsy Ribbon

Here's a glimpse at one of the products I will be making/selling for Epilepsy Awareness. I haven't yet figured out the price, but will soon. Especially with Chad's help. :) It won't be very expensive, probably just a few dollars. Now to make some more and work on another product. It feels great to get this underway and to help give my fellow epilepsy sufferers hope that someday we will find a cure. I'm lucky my situation is fairly mild and that I've been able to find the right medication the first time around. Many others aren't as lucky. Some peoples' seizures are so debilitating that they have difficulty speaking, walking, and have many cognitive issues. Some are so unlucky that nothing works, no matter what they try, and they are forced to endure major seizures dozens of times a day, sometimes as many as 20. It's long past time that changed. Let's help them. Every dollar helps.

Branching out.

So, I'm seriously considering branching out in what all I plan on selling. I'd like to learn other crafts, simple jewelry or something. I'm also seriously thinking about getting into quilting. I've got a lot of time on my hands and want to fill it with something worthwhile. This will also give me more time to hone my crocheting to where it is worthy to sell.

The cards came!

My new 'business' cards came! Well, I actually got them at the beginning of August, I'm just slow to post this. Now to get the details of selling, prices, etc., figured out and build up a supply of stuff to sell. Guess I better get going. :)

Business Cards

Well, the business cards for the blog are done. Just waiting to get them. Amanda, a friend from karate, will get them to my sensei who in turn will get them to me. Should be receiving them in a couple weeks. I can't wait to see them. I haven't decided exactly when I'll start selling stuff yet, or how much I will charge or anything. Geuss I should work on that. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Gonna go into business.

Well, I've thought about it, and decided that I will sell my crochet work. Once I improve my skills a bit more and figure out the cost of yarn and stuff, I will start selling some. It'll probably be slow going at first, but that's okay. This also means I now know what to do with the 250 business cards I won last month. I just have to figure out what I want them to look like. Hopefully I can get this all done soon.

I NEED YOUR INPUT!

Went to a Grand Opening for our karate school's new dojo in Eagle. During the raffle I won 250 free business cards. Thought of selling some of my crocheting when I get better. Maybe I can do the cards for the blog or something. What do you all think? I need ideas.

My first real projects!

They're not perfect, but not that bad either, for a beginner. The turquoise item is a centerpiece thing that happened by accident. It was originally meant to be a something else, but was made too big. A friend of ours suggested it would be perfect to use for a centerpiece.The blue one is a pot holder I made last month. It was inspired by a rectangular one we were given for our wedding. Perfect for holding that Ben & Jerry's w/o freezing your fingers off:)
