It's a No Sew Binder. I'm thinking of making a bunch and selling them for $15-$20. I can't settle on a price. I hope you guys like it! Post http://theblogfrog.com/70755/forum/142435/cute-diy-binder.htmlTue, 10 Jan 2012 03:29:51 GMTI have been in a fit of organization since the new year. What are you organizing now? http://theblogfrog.com/70755/forum/142434/what-are-you-organizing.htmlTue, 10 Jan 2012 03:24:58 GMTI'm trying to get my etsy shop going but after looking at shipping costs I think I'm going to have to charge way more for my items than I wanted to. All of my items weigh around a pound or less, sizes range from 3 to 8 inches but the costs for shipping I'm seeing online are $9-$15. I see items that look to be similar in size and weight going for much less with little to no S&H. I need help! What is your secret! http://theblogfrog.com/70755/forum/142413/etsy---shipping--handling.htmlTue, 10 Jan 2012 02:06:06 GMTSo for Christmas, I had A LOT of kiddos to buy for. I thought a nice handmade gift would be great to let the kiddos know I was really thinking about them. So I made what I call Snuggle Monsters! After Christmas, everyone was telling me I should sell these little guys since they are 100% handmade, hand-stitched. Yes, that's right, I don't have a sewing machine nor know how to use one so I hand-stitched about 20 of them. So I have a little side business where I sell handmade greeting cards etc. so I decided to post some of the Snuggle Monsters I've made. (I have about 15 of them photographed on facebook if you'd like to see them). From there I ended up getting several orders. I was so thrilled. Maybe it's because they are cute or maybe it's because they are pretty cheap! But since January 1st I've had quite a few orders. My poor fingers are a little sore, but I'm happy to be making these and hope they make their new owners happy. http://theblogfrog.com/70755/forum/141941/snuggle-monsters.htmlFri, 06 Jan 2012 15:46:15 GMTHappy New Year!
