New Blogs

I know, I havent done a post at all in December and it is just about over.  Well I hope everyone had a great holiday season!!  I'm keeping this on super short because I just wanted to stop and give a short update.  First off, I've been on Etsy for about 3 1/2 months and got 25 sales.  I know thats not a lot, but for me that's good.  Don't get me wrong, I'd love more sales (hint, hint), but I am happy for the ones I did get. 

Also, I have 2 new blogs coming that I'm hoping will do well.  The first one came from me always giving tips and advice to my family and friends, mostly about fashion and beauty things, but also about whatever.  So the first blog is called Ask Kelly.  It is pretty much the questions that I am asked and my responses to them.  I figured that I will always have something to write about, so that helps.  You'll also be able to email your own questions and have them answered.  It will probably be mostly fashion and beauty since thats most of the questions from my family.  I'm sure though that some other questions will pop up as well.

Now the next blog is going to be more of like an online journal.  My New Years goal (I don't like the word resolutions) is to lose a decent amount of weight.  I decided that I want to lose extra weight before trying to have a baby so I added a little bit more th what I already wanted to lose.  So this blog is going to be about my progress along with pictures, workout routines (whats working and whats not) and me keeping track of what I'm eating.  I would be great if other people are doing it along with me and I would gladly share their progress as well.  I'm already getting my parents and husband to do it.

Well I think that's it for now.  I got 6 days off work so check of my shop (http://www.kmdouglass.etsy.com/) for new items that I'll be posting.  Until December 31 everything is Buy 3, Get 1 FREE! and 25% off clearance items.  Once my blogs are up and running I will let everyone know the links.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Why I shouldn't drink coffee at 7 in the evening!

My husband and I moved into our house the middle of June 2010.  Since then our garage has become the resting place for everything we don't want to deal with.  I think every week I would say, "Oh I'm gonna clean it out soon".  That was a lie!  Well the other day I was running late for work and when I go to my car it is totally frosted!!  Since that means winter is coming and my car does NOT do well in the winter (I've been locked out and locked in my car along with having to hold the door shut while driving because the latch freezes or something) I had to get the garage cleaned out now.  So today I called my one grandma and her and I cleaned for hours and hours.  It still needs work ( my husband has stuff to go through, there Goodwill stuff, things that need to go to family members' houses), but I hope that by next week my garage will finally be done!

So after that ordeal, I decided that I really wanted coffee.  I got this pumpkin spice coffee from TJ Maxx one day (super good!).  I made a pot of that and started drinking since there was nothing else to do beside watch QVC and drink coffee.  Well a couple cups of coffee leads me to where I am now.  On my computer juggling between my blog, Twitter, Facebook and Etsy.  The plus side is that I did get a sale from being on tonight.  I also got some of my Etsy to-do list done ( 3 new items listed). 

I will be back tomorrow with another post!

Updates for the week

So I've been working some long hours at my job.  That's why there haven't been any new posts lately.  I figured I'd stop by and add some quick updates.

* I shipped out my first order today!  I feel bad that it took me a little longer then I wanted to get them out, but my work schedule and the post office hours just didn't work well together.  Take a look at my first order on Etsy.  A custom order for 7 photo mats!

* The fudge I ordered from http://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetmelissasmn came today.  We got the peanut butter cup and cookies n cream fudge and the caramels.  They are really good and I have a feeling that we'll be back for more!

* The Christmas stockings I order for my husband and I came today.  Look at how cute they are!  They were custom made for us.  It was a fun process, although I do wish I had picked a darker green.  Anyway, they are still super cute!  Go to http://www.etsy.com/shop/Jennyfurdouglas to look at all her other designs.

Another Day of Etay Shopping!

So I got paid today which means of course where do I go to first?  Etsy!!  Just wanted to share my purchases for the day.

First is this cute bath and body gift set from itsfromarizona.  You get whipped body butter, soap and sugar scrub cubes!  I couldn't decide on a scent so I got pumpkin pie and pink grapefuit.

 Then I went to get cookie n' cream and peanut butter cup fudge for my husband and I.  But these caramels looked good too!  I got these from sweetmelissasmn.

And then there's this cute origami crane.  I had the note changed  to "You Are My Sunshine" for my grandmother.  It's been a long running thing since I was little to sing the song.  I got the crane in orange, like the sun. :)  It's from peacecranegreeting.

Hello a.k.a. First Post

Hi everyone!  So this is the first post ever to my blog, pretty exciting!  Right now I am doing so much to try and get my Etsy shop noticed.  Iv'e been told about all kinds of stuff I can do to get it noticed.  Today I have set up a Twitter account, a Facebook page and now the blog.  Wow, it's been a crazy day!  Now that I have everything set up I am going to have to go back through and figure out how to make it awesome.  I think I'll save that for tomorrow since my brain is starting to fry, haha.  Below are links to my accounts so check them out and watch the progress.
