Making Charm Bracelets, necklaces and knitting markers

Well, that basically sums up what I am doing right now.

I've been on Ebay a lot listing stuff to sell, getting rid of some of my expensive dolls.  I need to start saving up for a new car at some point.  So need to save a little bit each month for it.

And I have been busy knitting, sewing the yo yos and making the rag dolls.  And making knitting markers.  They are so easy to make.  And someone bought one of my sets and another person is watching another set.

Then today I listed a cute sock monkey marker set.  And I am waiting for a bunch of supplies to make the pretty charm bracelets.  I'm going to make some Twilight charm bracelets.  And I've got alot of those bottle caps coming for putting my photography into and selling the necklaces.  And I even saw Bottle cap knitting
markers on Ebay.

So am going to try making them and then selling them.  Maybe I will even put some on my new etsy store.

so far I have five sets of paper dolls there, a yo yo pincushion pattern and one of my sets of photo greeting cards.  I've got to work on getting more stuff there and then promoting it.

Then the other day, i found a neat Goodwill statue of a girl with bust on a pedestal.  It was painted all green with pink stripes.  I knew I could paint it and make it look better.

Then I had fun painting some roses today for a photosession.

I've got to seriously make some overlay pictures with my photography.  I'm going to really make myself learn how to use my photo software.

My other baby lately is my Zazzle store for my photography.  I made a sale a month ago and have been very busy updating the store.  I've been cleaning up all the duplicates and triples that I didn't realize it created and deleted the flowers t shirts for men and boys!  Learning a lot about Zazzle.

Then I figured out how to copy the code and promote some of the products.  I've got a I lost My Marbles product and a baby onesie product my boyfriend wants me to push.  I was facebooking it and other sites and got surprised that fifty people viewed my store in one day!  The baby onesie has a picture of old jewelry and says:  Don't Sell me at the Pawn Shop!  ha ha

As of the 20th my prices on all products are lower.  I began with the site wanting 50% but that increases the prices of the products.  My boyfriend said try 10% and see what happens.  So all prices are lower now!

I created some categories so people can find certain products easier.  Now I have to go through all my products and put them in the right category.

Then after that, start creating more stuff again.
