Thought I'd share my latest project.

I joined an art show last year where I showcased my handmade jewelries. This year I'm showcasing my handmade bags and other sewing items.

Just finished this Leather Backpack and thought I'd share what I've made so far. The art show won't be until mid of September so I still have time to create a couple more. I do have orders of crossbody bags and a laptop bag but those are still in the works.

Anyway, here is what I just finished tonight. Normally, it takes me within a day to finish my project. Ever since I got Jake, I haven't been able to focus on my projects :(

Here are a few of my previous works:
- A couple of my handmade jewelries
- Party giveaways (50th Birthday); personalized to my clients preference;
- Sewn gift bag made of Chinese silk
- Handmade small wallet/keychain (HelloKitty)
- Baptismal giveaways

and a few more.

I make wedding invitations, party favors, bags, greeting cards and candles. Will post a picture or two of my candles.

[MENTION=2894]2BullyMama[/MENTION] and [MENTION=9205]JennieS[/MENTION] I'm not on ETSY?

I sell through word of mouth. Mostly I make to order.

Here are a few more pictures of my work. Like Christmas cards and Mother's Day card which I sold about over 100 cards back in 2012.

I just realized that I didn't post my garment projects hehe

Beautiful beautiful items. I'm on Etsy and it's great. But it's a full time job just learning the ways of SEO and being found. I've been focusing just about all my time this year on exactly that; marketing myself. You'd do very well there. Jewelry is a tough sell from what I hear because there's so much of it. I absolutely love your work.

Oh I make dog beds, pads, stuffy toys and my new Flying Floppy Dog Disc (the indoor frisbee). My shop name is Comfy Pet Pads. I also have a website.

Jack's a cutie too!

if you ever want any help or tips, I've been in marketing for about 10 years, i'd be happy to help you out. it's hard to learn, especially the online stuff. I feel like i had to start from scratch lol.

I hate marketing myself!! I also have an Etsy store and I photograph my two bulldogs and I make greeting cards also. I am NOT computer savvy and I am a visual learner.... So unless there is a video included with the instructions, I don't seem to be able to do it. My Etsy store is My Bulldogs Love Me Greeting Cards. I do okay. Well enough that I can continue to make new cards and donate to rescues.
