Kitchen Abduction
Photobucket - Video and Image HostingI don't know how I did it, maybe it was the coffee grind/vanilla absolute candle I was burning all night, but I had a huge creative burst that lasted from 8:00 friday morning and didn't end until 6:00 Saturday morning. 22 hours straight! Afterward I jumped in the shower, took an hour long nap, and headed out to a church basement craft sale that my grandmother drags me to every year. We never make any money at this thing so I figured it wouldn't matter if I was out of it, but I wasn't. Surprisingly I managed to sell a whole bunch of stuff, and I was on top of things all day. Weird. I'm going to have to make some more of those candles :)

How goes the Etsy shop?
Does it have good exposure? Have your sales jumped noticbly? Would you recommend using this site?
I'm thinking of setting one up of my own but I'm just not sure yet and would love your input.

Etsy is AMAZING! I love my shop :) Go see -->

My sales haven't jumped yet, hopefully soon with holiday shopping upon us. I've made a few suprise sales from strangers, always exciting when I don't have to really work for it. A ton of trades though, it's a great place to barter. I've traded for some gorgeous items that I never would have bought myself, and a whole box full of christmas presents!

I totally recommend opening a shop! Especially if you make soap, I love handmade soap :)

Watch this...

Such fun!
I love making candles. My results never live up to the picture in my head, but it is always fun to do it.
