Finally discovered ETSY.COM!!!

For anyone who makes anything homemade, you MUST visit Etsy.com. It's like Ebay but for the crafting community. You can buy or sell anything hand made or even supplies like yarn or fabric. They also have a lot of other things like chats, blogs, tools to help you promote your Etsy Store, etc. After visiting Etsy, it finally has given me the good kick in the butt I needed to finish all those projects I started but never quite finished. So, my New Year's resolution is to finish my projects BEFORE I start a new one. I currently have at least 3 unfinished projects in my storage cube in my living room. AND I will spend less time online searching for new patterns and yarn or supplies if I have unfinished projects. Remember one of my first blogs was the green and red placemats I was making with a loom? Well, I made one and never went back to make the other 3...lol.
After seeing what a huge hit my scarves were at Justin's Holiday Bazaar (they sold out in about 3 minutes as soon as it opened and I had Mom's telling me to start making them now for next year) I want to maybe start selling items on Etsy. Of course, I need to get busy and make a bunch of items for my stock.... BUT first I need to finish the forgotten projects that are half done.
I hope everyone has a Happy and Healthy New Year!!!
