| This is really important. I am out of stretch cord.
I had my first international order this week from Germany. Then another one to Canada. I'm excited! I listed a lot of new items and renewed some as well. I finally got it figured out. :) I have a few more to list in the next couple days. My mission right now though is to get my summer homework done. (D'oh!) I can't say I'm excited for it but I suppose a couple novels wouldn't kill me. AP Biology might.
Sorry for the short blog, I can't really think of what to write about right now. I'll update again soon!

| In preparation of moving into my new room, I haven't had time to list or create new items... Barely any time left to promote, even!
I can't wait to start creating again.

| I'm typing in a hurry because my little sister wants the computer in about fifteen minutes, so here I go!
I sold a few more items tonight. I started getting positive feedback today, too! I'm really excited that I'm selling so much for being a fresh, new Etsy store! I'm drawn up and copied some fliers that I want to put up around town so I can get some local recognition. I was going to be a part of a district craft show on the lake shore but my schedule really isn't allowing for it right now. :(
I'm going to be taking a hiatus from listing from August until September, or whenever I finish my summer homework. I have work in AP Biology and Accelerated English 11 which is really gonna kick my butt if I can't get it done soon.
I'm making kandi bracelets to sell in grab bags and I'm hoping to have those listed by the first. I also didn't want to list in August so I can get my Etsy fees paid. I owe over $20 right now and I really don't want to push it seeing as I've already spent out of my own pocket for all of this to be created.
But it should be worth it, right? It's working out great so far!
Wow, that only took four minutes! Well, good bye!

| I made two more sales, although one of them was a trade! I'm still waiting for feedback :)
I don't have work today, so I'm going to try again at another kandi ladder. My second one fits me thanks to the stretch but, I ran out of cord again, and it measures six inches around! I like to aim for eight inches with my bracelets. Maybe I can mow the lawn today! It hasn't rained in a little over a day so I can finally trim our knee-high grass (exaggerated!).
After my dad gets home from work he can drive me to the post office again. I'm sort of browsing eBay for wholesale pendants... I could use them on bracelets and necklaces in the future!
I must fight the urge to buy more supplies! I have to use up the ones I already have.

| I don't have a lot to update you on, but I can say that I tried and failed at a kandi ladder. Oops!
I didn't know how much cord to use, so I thought that using three times the amount I would normally use would do the trick. Apparently not! Now, I have a half-bracelet, half-ladder. I'm working on a new one now!
No new sales yet, but I mailed out two packages from the Saturday orders. I have been keeping track of my views from CraftCult and I've been getting hundreds a day thanks to my Twitter account. I only have thirty followers though!
I'm working on a Webs site with tutorials for people who want to make their own kandi. It's a lot of work, but I can possible sell advertising space on it, and I can use this as an opportunity to advertise my Etsy shop, too!
That's all for now. I'm beat from work this morning!
