With all this rain, business is bloomin'

What's that outside? Could it be rain? Again? Yup, I think so. We've had so much rain, that I've done nothing but crochet. The upside? Lots of inventory to sell. We're all stir crazy in this weather and want to get outside. But with all this rain, business is bloomin' - - so to speak. Starting out is a rough gig. I'm trying to get more "LIKES" on my facebook page, hoping that will drive folks over to Etsy and my own website. It's slow going. Apparently I'm creative in coming up with cute little crochet ideas (no pattern required), but I can't seem to think of a creative way to get people looking at my pages. Suggestions anyone? I ordered business cards, which was actually a pretty fun process. I'm going to hand them out when folks ask about what the kids are wearing in public...but aside from that, I'm all out of ideas. I'll keep you posted!

what a year it's been.....

It's been a year...a long busy year since I've been on. Quick updates....Had a baby....just one. Jakob Michael is 6 months old tomorrow! Here's the math on the others....Emma is 6, Jack and Abby are 2 years and 10 months, and Foof is 1 year and 10 months old. Yep...that's all of them. In the past year....life has been pretty much the same....busy, busy, and some more busy. One change is that I've learned to crochet to help feed our starving family (LOL)...set up my own site and everything. Come visit me at http://rosesgarden.weebly.com/ You can see the kiddos and my creations, all in one stop. You can also visit my shop on Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/CoolCrochetCreations?ref=si_shop I'll be back soon.
