Hello Friend, I just signed up to sell at a local craft show. It's been a few years since I have done this. I can not believe how much it costs to have a space at a craft sale! I had to pay $125 to have a space to hold three 8 foot tables! Now I remember why I love selling on Etsy! At the same time of year in 2018, I did a Craft Show that I paid $45 for a space at, but I did not even make my table fee! I put the products back on Etsy and got a sale for $48 worth of product within hours. My...

(or if it's been a while, or if we are moving - it might be 30%) I tell them what types of things need to be decreased. It seems like it's always stuffed animals. Those things somehow multiply in my...

The history on one unit we bought was that a woman died in a nursing home and did not have family alive or ever marry. She was a crafter and had a moving company pack up her...

Hello Friend, It's time for me to share my recent decluttering "win". I finally had enough money for the perfect container to motivate me! The Problem After seven years of living here (I always do "severe" decluttering before a house move as I tell myself, "less to move, less to move.") and keeping items out of some abandoned storage units (see post below), plus my own "sale finds" - I had somehow acquired twenty 18 gallon storage totes worth of fabric and yarn! Even if my Etsy shop was 4...
