I decided to try out Esty for some of my knit items, rather than adding them to my bookplate shop. So far I haven't started knitting bookplates : ).
I made some knit hi-top sneakers for my grandson, starting with a pattern I'd found and then throwing that away and developing my own. Then of course I couldn't stop and.. well, he only needs a pair or two, and not pink - so let's see if they work on Esty... I hope so. I love making these little cuties!
Here's a link to my NEW Esty shop!
Only one item to start, though it can be adjusted to fit size and color for individual customers.

I'm startin' my Christmas shoppin'
I'm a shopper, too - and my budget this year is tighter than ever! A new grandchild, my youngest starting college (on scholarships, grants and loans but they still want money from the only contributing parent - me!) and of course - the economy. So in addition to making gifts, I'm shopping , and shopping early, using sales, discounts and coupons. Read on, there's a coupon in this for you!
I would really love to make all my gifts for everyone on my list - but that isn't gonna happen! First - I don't have the time! Second - not everyone on my list needs something knit (grandsons can all use hats and scarves but - really, I'd also like to get them something cool!). Third, I want to support the growth of the economy. Okay, I kind of stretched on #3. I like shopping and buying stuf f is probably more accurate.
In any case, I'd like to point out a few things to my valued customers!
First, if you place an order, you receive an e-mail that has a coupon in it to use on your next order.
Second, if you create an account when you place an order, I manually go in and set you up as a repeat customer - this gives you a 10% discount every time you place an order, as long as you log in first using your account.
Third, if your order is over $50.00 before shipping, you get FREE shipping - even if you're in Canada, Australia or Britain.
And Fourth, if you read my blog, periodically you'll find additional coupons in them - this time the coupon starts now and is good until December 10th, giving you a 15% discount. This is on top of the 10% return customer discount. If you don't have a return customer discount - or if you've never place an order - you can STILL get that 15% discount just for taking the time to read all the way down here! All you have to do is type in (without the " " ) "HOLIDAY2010" when you get to the check-out section, where it asks for any coupon codes.
Coupon can be used once. Pass it on.
Simple, yes?
