Setting up my “stall”
Author: Bonnie
While waiting for the Baggitz website to be finished off I have decided to start my blog as this has been ready for a few days now.
This whole experience of creating my web site or should I say having my site created for me, selling the handbag organizers on Ebay plus the buzz that I am getting each time I sell another organizer brings back my childhood memory where this whole making and selling process began.
As a little girl I would make ‘Kool-Aid’ and set up stall at the bottom of the driveway selling a cup full to anyone willing to pay. I think in reality I probably drank more than I sold.
Then I progressed on to bigger things. I tried my hand at different crafts but at about the age of 10 or so I remember creating woven potholders with cotton jersey waste on a 6 inch square loom. I would carefully select the different colour combinations and select the best cotton loops and make up these squares in lovely plaids. What to do with all that I had made? I decided to go door to door and sell them for 25 cents each (it was a long time ago). The more I sold the more I wanted to make.
There is definitely an excitement each time I sell something I have created and each sale I wonder about that person and how I have become a part of their life.
The Internet gives me the opportunity to set up my stall for the world to experience my products and me.
I look forward to the future and sharing my creations and experiences with you.
