I have spent most of today trying to promote my work trying to get my first non friend family sale--but still no luck yet!!
So I have been looking into arts and craft shows that I could rent space at to promote my product!! Since I am just beginning I don't want to spend alot of money, so I am going to start with some of the smaller shows that have cheap entry fees just to get my feet wet and get some experience with them under my belt!
I have a few possibilities that I am interested in and I am just waiting to get responses back for more information!
I am kind of excited and scared because now I need to get more than 3 pieces of work ready to be able to go to a show lol!!
I am also awaiting the arrival of my promotional labels that I want to use to market myself on the products that I do sell!! The proof looked awesome so I am very excited to actually get my hands on them!

You have cute layouts - I'm sure if you keep promoting they will sell soon :)
I'm also looking into joining a small scale craft fair in my neighbourhood - but I am worried about having enough stock! Everyone says you need a lot -but what does that really mean! hhmmm :)
I am so excited someone actaully read mm blog hehe....May I ask where you found about it--Just want to see if my marketing is paying off!!
Yea I am really unsure that is why I gave myself until the end of November to get ready, and I will just take everything that I have made and offer custom made orders : )
It is kinda exciting when someone else reads your blog :
I found yours on a Etsy forum post today:
