Well, today I went onto Vista Print and ordered up some free (other than shipping) business cards. I had them imprinted with my name, number, email, and blog. AAAAAND an etsy store. Yup, I finally set up a seller's account. I have not listed anything yet, but I will. My first batch of items will be clerical stoles. Random, yes, but there aren't many sellers doing them on etsy. And having a dad who's a pastor gives me and inside scoop on what they like. I made my first prototype for my dad's birthday today. This is Jeff (my boyfriend) modeling it.
Dad said he would send me a picture of himself wearing it on Sunday. Here's a closeup.
Not sure how I will price them, yet. I want to make about five of them and then list them. I named my shop after my blog (and my great grandmother). It gives me the flexibility to sell a variety of things. My card tagline reads, "Creations of Words, Whimsy, and Wonder." I am excited to see what happens. It's a step in the right direction, though! I have a solid three weeks before they will arrive, and in the meantime, I need to get to work!
