ME & MY SHOP

I wanted to share bit about ME & MY SHOP, a little behind me & my shop!!! MY SHOP is among the best thing I had for this year, it made me change my thinking, explore and learn new things and it was one thing that made me find an alternative activity after one big tragedy that happened Dec, 2012.

I officially opened my shop in Etsy on Oct 30th , 2012... and it was for the first time I start doing business and for the first time doing an online business (at first I did not think this is business, I just thought this is what I like to do which turned to business). Before I opened my shop, I knew nothing about Etsy but after some research through internet "googling" that is where I came across Etsy

How long did I stay before my first sale?---- One thing that made me super happy is to see people viewing and favorite my items. 30 days after my shop was live (on Nov 30th, 2012) is when I received first conversation from a buyer who wanted to purchase some of my pillow covers " I wanted to collapse with joy" though buyer did not purchase but that made me move on and encouraged me. In Dec, 2012 I temporary closed my shop after had one life tragedy and re-opened the shop in April, 2013. I did stay for so long till I sold my first items in June, 2013

What is The First item I sold?----- My first sale was on pillow covers which I named them as 2 Stunning Inspiration African Pillow Covers





What is my recent sale? ----- Through out the year I have been adding different items and now I have some African print women clothes. So the picture below is the recent sale from my shop Dashiki Dress - African Print Dress





What Next? ----- I would say I am new to this world of handmade business that's why I still need to study more on this but ABOVE ALL I THANK ALMIGHTY GOD for everything and will go as we go.

Happy Wednesday everyone and thank you for stopping by.

Cheers
