NEW Soap Shop!

Hi everyone! I know I am super horrible at updating this blog. I try to get on whenever I can! I have so many sites to keep up with, and sometimes this one gets left in the dust :-( I will try to be better about it!

Anywho, I had a busy day today! Trying to come up with some new items for both my shops. I am excited about some of the things I have been sketching out, and hope to have some cute new things up soon! Yesterday I listed some new soaps in my NEW soap shop, as well as cute cotton washcloth sets!

I also updated my website this morning. It has a link to my facebook fan page if you aren't already a fan! I only have like, 16....I would love some more!

Speaking of, please visit the site for the info on the new shop, as well as to join the fan club on Facebook! Thanks!

CONTEST - Exclusive info!

This is a great contest for my customers! It gives you a chance to be creative and win some fun prizes!

Here's the info:

I am making a "Happy Customers" album on my Myspace and Facebook pages.

To do that, I need photos of happy customers!

Have you bought something from one of my shops? Take a photo with it!
Be creative, because the most creative photo will win an AWESOME prize pack from BirdWatching Designs! I have LOTS of great things in it! I will post pictures of the prizes soon.

I will have one winner per month! That means you can keep submitting each month, and I will choose a winner on the last day of the month.

If you want to enter, all you have to do is send your photos to
BirdWatching_Designs@live.com

Make sure your photo is in before the end of the month to be considered. You can send multiple photos, if you have purchased multiple items.

NOTE: Once sent, you have consented to allow me to use your photo on my websites. If you do not consent to this, you need to state so in your e-mail.

Thanks, and I hope you enter!

PS - It's not too late: If you haven't purchased anything from me to enter, just visit birdwatching.etsy.com or birdsbubbles.etsy.com to purchase!

Weekend, Weekend...you go by so fast

This weekend is already flying by. I am trying to make tons of new things for my shop!

I really wish the economy wasn't so horrible right now. I would love to be able to do etsy full time. I am looking right now at trademarks and all that good stuff (which is super confusing).

I am thinking of starting a contest. I have all sorts of goodies that I never renewed on etsy that I can use for prizes. I think tomorrow I will make a final decision and post more info.

I am also looking into doing craft shows. It's hard, here, though, because it's so darn hot! There are a lot of shows up north, but it's hard to figure out what exactly you have to do to sign up. I will keep trying to figure it all out, though. It definitely doesn't seem like it will be cheap.

Today I have been working on some floral wrist pincushions. I just have to buy some more velcro to finish them up!

I was productive this weekend!!!

I actually got a few new things made for my shop this weekend. I hope to have even more up soon. I hope everyone had a great Easter Weekend!

NEWNESS!

After a long break, I finally posted some new items in my etsy shop! Please take a look! Thanks!

Another Front Page!

Browsing the treasury, I found out I was in another front page treasury! Take a look! How exciting!


Sometime this week I hope to put new items in my shop. I haven't really been adding new things lately, and my sales reflect it. Keep your eyes open, though...this week I am going to try and add a few new items!

Big Week for BirdWatching!

Wow! This week has been kind of big for BirdWatching Designs!

I received a 1 minute radio mention on KEZ 99.9 in Phoenix! Please visit my website to take a listen!

BirdWatching Designs Announcements: Radio Mention

Also, I was invited to sell at a four-day bird-watching festival in April! The lady who runs the festival got my web address from a friend and really wants me to sell at it. I got the official application so I might be doing that!

Not sure if I am going to be able to make it to the Artist Market this weekend. I really want to go because it's supposed to be pretty busy...but it's supposed to rain and be cold, and my back is hurting. They announced I'd be there on the radio so I kinda feel like I should. We'll see how it looks tomorrow.

I have one more custom owl to finish and then I can go back to making new things for my shops. Sales were great the past week or two and have sorta slowed down now. I am hoping some new items might make things pick back up. We shall see!

Well, I am getting tired. I should probably head to bed! Good night!

...And the winner is.....

EternalAutumn!
