Im sending you crafting vibes today >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
that way you can make something wonderful to list on Etsy! Have you ever watched the kids movie ROBOTS? Every time I am going to make something I think about a quote from that movie. The main goal for a crafter selling on Etsy, is to make something that is a huge hit that everyone loves and flys off the shelf, or net lol. The quote I always always always have in my head every day is "Find a need, fill a need". It is so true! You can make something wonderful every day of the week, but if there are a million more just like yours, its not going to sell well! So I am constantly thinking. WHAT do I need in my everyday life that I havent been able to find right now? WHAT could I adapt or add to that would make something unique and useful? WHAT would be a wonderful thing to make that would make decorators go OOHHHAHHHHH??? Well, unfortunately, WHAT is the million dollar question!! BUT, you certainly arent going to be able to find that magical item by just sitting there!
Get off your bum and make something today! Dont procrastinate and WAIT until you have an idea. Go with the first thing that pops into your head. By the time you are done, you might have made something completely different than your original first thought, but the point is, you got your creative juices flowing :o)
Happy crafting everybody! Im off the flea market in the freezing cold weather! THEN Im coming home to craft! OH and I gotta pick some cute things to add to my FEATURE for today. So stay tuned, you might just have something featured!
