I wake up every morning to make unique items and believe that beauty will save the world.
I try to make people happy and convey beauty and warmth into your homes.

I'm so grateful for every sale at my shop , for the etsy community and for having a store. I have been so blessed to have this store and every customer matters. I want to continue to treat every customer with respect honesty and get their item sent to them safely and securely so they are truly happy with it! I would love to keep finding new items of great quality and have fun.

My mom and I started listing consistently the weekend of April 18, 2016 and yesterday August 18 we made our 100th sale! Our original goal was to get to 100 by Christmas so we are happy/shocked/surprised/excited/humbled/all of the above... our new goal is, hopefully, to now reach 200 by Christmas!

Updating my pictures and listing tags to get more views and lead to more sales.

I started selling in May and it's been a slower start, my first goal is to get at least 100 items in my shop, I also want to start having some regular sales coming in. I've had 3 sales so far which I am very happy about but I can't wait to have more. My goal is to get some sales each week I don't have a set number that I want to reach yet because any sale is wonderful to me but it would be nice to grow!!

Hello all...
I decided to open an Etsy shop to work with everything I love....thread, cloth, design, embroidery, lace....just pretty things :) for home and living.
I hope to improve my SEO, photographing, and branding- which I hope results in more sales.

Greetings from Malaysia,

Rachel’s Craft Co was launched a few days ago. My products are self designed handmade bags. I love to express myself through creativity, and get lost in the world of arts and crafts.

My goals are:
- Filling my shop more, at least with 1 new product a week.
- Having 1-2 sales per week to keep the spirits up for a novice!

I have a big list of things that I want to do this year. Namely, I want to grow my store in size so that there is a rich variety of items for people to download and print. I also want to grow the art side of my business, but I'm still deciding on what direction that will take:).

[Stylissh]

I would like to stock up on new savvy products! I'm aiming for 100 - 150 items by December and to also get a few more sales and interact with my customers.

I would also like to open up a website for Miss 24 prints too!

Heres to a great ending of 2016!!!
