EtsyFriends Store Feature Miyaw


Well, It is that time of the week to feature our great Etsy shops! Today I would like to share miyaw. Her shop is very eclectic. A one stop shop where you can find your bath and body needs, beautiful chainmaile jewlery, and even unique tie tacks! I recently ordered for myself some wonderful bath salts and yummy soap! So check her shop out: http://www.miyaw.etsy.com/

A New Year

Well It's a new year and my shop has been up and running for a little over 2 months. I have sold 84 items and Etsy admin's published me in a Storque article. Here is the link to check it out:

That was the best Christmas present ever!

I seem to have many more international buyers, which is so wonderful to know my candles are all over the World!

I am now a part of several Etsy groups:
Etsy Friends ( a wonderful group that encourages friendships and promotion through each other and not to mention Every month we have a shop that all proceeds go to a different charity)

Illinois Street Team ( A lower key group but again a great way to meet new people around my hometown!)

Trashion ( Is about visualizing beauty in unconventional objects and materials. What a great way to reuse, recycle, and make it a better place for everyone through art!)

I am really getting to be a workaholic. I work 80 hours plus a week on my at home business. It's crazy. When I am not working I am thinking about working and what I should be doing. Christmas break was really hard being away from my ability to make candles!

OK so Thanksgiving is over, and it is time to get creating and selling! I just tried soy wax, and I am not having much luck. The candles always have some kind of frosting. I have poured at 100, 125, 140, and 180 degrees. I don't know. I ordered some different soy wax today., hopefully it comes ASAP I have a show the 8th. AHHHHH. I will post the new candles when I get them done. Here is my new creations so far:
