4 questions asked and answered and then I will nominate someone else. Happy reading.
What inspired you to start your business or Etsy shop?
I decided I wanted to start an Etsy shop after I fell in love with sewing a few years ago, I then fell pregnant with my son and started to make blankets , bibs and hats . I thought of how nice it is not to have everything mass produced and decided that I would sell baby items. Here are a few of the first things I started to make.
We’re looking at goals in the Brighton Etsy Team this month (you can follow along with #btnetsygoals!) Can you share one of your goals for your shop for the next six months?
My goals of the next six months , are to develop some new products more for toddlers to expand my range from just babywares. I hope to try and make some fun thing, games / toys.... watch this space.
What are you working on at the moment?
At the moment I have been working on some new onsies , with interchangeable bow ties. I did a craft fair recently and got some good feedback . I may do some adjustments and more options . Take a look at this was at The Open Market,London Rd.
If you could give other sellers or someone looking to start their own design/craft business one piece of advice, what would you say?
If I could give anyone any advice , I would say be as involved with teams and events as you can, everyone is so friendly and willing to help and give advice. Also keep at social media , an hour a day really does make a difference to your shop. Also craft fairs are really useful for getting a good sense of what people like and ideas for new products.
Well I hope this has perhaps given an insite to Mrs Loveday. I nominate Cats Ceramics . Good luck .
Thanks for reading
