how sad!

How sad is it when you log on to blog and you can't remember your password and you have to reset it. That means that I haven't been doing my job and keeping this up to date.

There isn't a whole lot going on in Sweet Tater land.

I am wanting to expand into more items though. I am finding that handmade children's items aren't big sellers. I am kinda bummed about that. I thought that it was something cool and fun. I am still making things though, mostly custom orders, and of course, my gifts to friends are handmade.

I am now making luggage tags. They are pretty cute and have been a huge success so far. I am still trying to catch up on the orders that I have gotten so far. I am also wanting to get into making kitchen items, maybe some matching towels and pot holders. My potholders are a big success too, but I have yet to sell them publicly. Pictures will be posted soon.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I am always open to suggestions or constructive criticisms.

Peace out!

Good morning everyone!

I wanted to let you know about this blog. She is having a giveaway everyday up to the 1 year anniversary of her blog. She has asked various etsy sellers and others to participate and I hopped on the wagon. Today is my giveaway day, so go check it out.

Her blog is a sundry of information. It is a great mommy blog. I recommend becoming a follower. I have.

There are some great etsy sellers on her site, you can still register for the previous 7 days of giveaways and they don't draw until February 1, so you have plenty of time to get over there and see whats going on. I hope you like what she has on there.

Again, her blog is beforethebabywakes.blogspot.com.

Later, peeps!

my button

Hey! Check out my button ---------------------> I added an etsy button to the blog. When you click on it, it will take you directly to my etsy store. I have added a few things in the past couple of weeks, check them out. .

Things have been kinda slow. I have gotten 2 orders from my etsy store though, I am super stoked about that. But, when it rains, it pours........babies, that is. I have 3 babies that I am sewing for right now. Since they usually come in threes, maybe this will be it for a little while. Congrats to all my friends!

I have decided to take on a couple of other projects. I have decided to try to make a shirt for myself.....scary, I know. I don't know how I feel about sewing clothes, but it's a really cute shirt...and I am going to attempt luggage tags....Vera Bradley style. Not that I am trying to become the next Vera Bradley, I just like the stuff.........without the pricetag. We'll see!

Peace out!
