How to sell my crafts
It made me
so-so
 "looking back, its laughable"
How I did it: i signed up to be in this craft fair that was part of a much larger arts event. i had to submit work be judged and pay a fee, it was sort of a big deal when i was accepted and i felt really great, but as it turned out the show was a waste of time effort and money, we were put in a bad part of the strip in which the festival was taking place and only drunks and hobos showed up to see what we doing there. one lady actually told me there was an art show happening down the street, and that we should try to hook up with that!

I want to open two Etsy stores – one for hand crafted organization products (like storage boxes and stuff) and one for altered art. I need to make time to actually make things and then promote the stores.

I have to Rethink my Candle Formula
15 months ago
I have candles in a store in Harris County. It doesn’t have any air. My candles are melting. That is not cool. I have to rethink my candle formula. I have purchased something that will harden the wax so that it will hold its shape under hot circumstances. My website is almost complete to. Things are looking up. I really haven’t done much with www.bettysonly.blogspot.com or www.bettysonly.etsy.com. I will go ahead and check on the lables from Office Max.

Throw Trunk Shows

More specifically, I want to get back into making jewelry and maybe even make some money off of it. They say that right now is the worst time to start a business, but I don’t really care what they say. I can dream all I want about making things happen for me, and there will always be plenty of excuses that involve reasons not to do it. If not now then when?

Betty's Only Labels
16 months ago
I have to create my labels for my business. I went to see how big candle businesses labels their candles. Some have the fragrance on the labels. Others have a picture with the company name at the top and the dimensions. I think my labels will be wrap arounds that have the company name, style, and fragrance along with the logo. I should have these worked out soon.

Sell Betty's Only Candles
17 months ago
I have been making candles for a really long time now. I just put some on Etsy not to long ago, I got a few sales, but not recently. I have created a blog pertaining to the building of Betty’s Only A Candle Company. I enjoy making candles and when people see them they want them. People purchase from me, but I want to do more selling online to people that don’t know me. I want Betty’s Only to be known for the unique and interesting candles that we make. Ultimately, I want to sell $500 worth of candles monthly via the internet to start.

I draw on T-shirts and chucks, draw, make graphics and random photos, FIMO stuff. When I learn drawing on T-shirts better, I might start selling stuff, but until then I’m pretty skeptic that it would sell, although my friends want me to draw on their clothes also.
