What a busy bee I’ve been! In my efforts to grow my business I’ve been doing a lot of administrative duties, taking me away from the fun things for a bit. My new business name is applied for (Home Deconomics) and website is finally going to be built. As my husband always says, go big or go home!
I’ve been taking a lot of photos. Photos for a wholesale catalog as well as booth and product pics for juried shows. I spent a lot of time creating some items at a lower price point, now I’m developing some for the other end of the spectrum, more art show worthy.
I’m going to create some really nice new business cards (with pictures) and post cards (listing shows and markets I’ll be attending that season).
Hopefully I can get my ducks in a row and have my website and catalog ready by fall in hopes of adding wholesale business when the farmers market season has ended.
Hopefully I’ll get all my new goodies listed on Etsy soon (cotton napkins, book covers, tortilla warmers, craft aprons and table runners) . And that’s another thing…essentially starting over with my Etsy shop (and the new name).
In the meantime, here’s a peek at my newest product, oilcloth table runners. I sold all my prototypes already at the last market!
And if anyone knows of someone who does fun and unusual web design, drop me a link or send me an email please! I’m looking for retro-1950’s flair.

You go girl! I love the clever new name and can't wait to see the new shop and site.
I am a firm believer in the "go big or go home" mentality too!
Looks like things are headed in an awesome direction!
Can't wait to see the new shop!
The shop will be the same! Just a new name :) The work will be in getting customers to follow me. It's a big risk because you can't take your feedback or sales with you!
But my business has needed some cohesion and branding so I'm taking the much needed first steps :)
I cant wait to see it all come together. Im so excited-I'm lovin the tablerunner-too cute!
sounds busy - but all good stuff!
Pop on over to my blog and see what you think.
I'm so excited for you! GR8T things are coming your way and THAT is a wonderful thing!!! Kudos to you for making it happen!
How exciting and stressful at the same time. Best of luck to you--and I think that your best customers will follow you.
