Sold items so far at the Burien Farmers Market

So far today I have sold the little child's chair and a lamp that was posted on my facebook site. I also sell these little wood boxes that have different decorations on them. The one the I sold today was turquoise with a purple fairy on it.

One of my favorite items that I make are these mini luggage's that I decoupage. I wish I had taken pictures of them but I forgot :-( Every week I consistently sell the ones that I have made. I think that I am going to have to keep that product in our booth every week. The first one that I sold was decoupaged with retro flower paper. The one that sold this week was covered in a reprint of a newspaper from the early 40's then of course it was antiqued. Hanging from the handle was key charms. I also added a mirror on the inside that Fonna helped me cut. I must say that it was too stinkin' cute! I sold one of those cases last week that was a medium size. I sell the small one for ten and the medium one for fifteen. The next time that I make one I will post a picture.

I am so glad that I am finally getting to know what product sells well. I have been trying to start this business for over a year now and I finally feel like I am getting somewhere. My next step is to open a fully functioning website. Anyone know of any good free places to start a website?

More product!

I have been working so hard lately on getting this business really booming. I am excited to say that I have been consistently selling my product through my facebook page and the Burien Farmers Market. Lately my husband has been promoting my business too to all of his friends and coworkers and I have been able to start expanding my personal scrapbooker part of my business. 

I think the hardest thing about starting a business is making something that sells and brings in enough money to make it worth all the effort. Recently it has been the antiqued furniture that has been bringing in the most money at the farmers market. I actually really enjoy doing it. I love my new sage green line. I think that I am also going to start doing a pastel pink line also. I put up the pictures of the sage green line on facebook and sold a piece about five minutes later.

Lately I have been doing a lot of personized scrapbooking. Today I just got an order for making a scrapbook using recipes that have been pasted down from generations. I am really excited to start the project. I will be shopping for all the product at Joann fabrics on Saturday. I will be doing that scrapbook with a vintage theme.

I will post pictures of the scrapbook as it unfolds. Of course I will be posting the pictures without the recipes. I can't give away family secrets :-)
