Itchy palm and Branding!

Had an itchy palm yesterday was really thinking someone has bought something....arrhhh but no!
Oh well onward!

I have done a fair bit of researching lately into selling at craft fairs.  Instead of making it easier to take the first steps it's making it harder!! 
Where/why/who/when and what!  Never mind the how!
So many other things to think of never mind your stock!!

Talking about stock I've tagged and bagged my Christmas dec's.


 
 
They are large luggage labels with a transparent self adhesive backing printed with xmas salutations for the front!


 
 
On the back using the same printed transparent film is my business logo and Folksy shop address.


 
 
Here's an example of the deco attached to the label...through the string attachment hole...good hey!
And another in the transparent bag packaging.


 
 
I've also done this for the Stitch Keepers.


 
 
Front of label, stitch keepers tagged and bagged!


 
 
The stitch keeper blurb on the back.
 
The yarn and pattern kit using the same principle......branding dearie!
 
 
 
 
This kit has gotten a lot of views on my Folksy shop Miss Dee's Fibre Dreams.  I wonder if that means it's a good product or does it mean people's expectations haven't been met?  Who knows!

 
I'm about to finish off the scarf knitted with the pattern ready for sale. 
 
Then today i'm going to make up a couple more in different colours and textures.....I'll err on they liked the product....yup I do have quite a good yarn (and fabric for that matter) stash in my sewing room.
Just look at this
 
 
 
One of the storage areas that are seriously in need of re-organising!  Mind I have the front rolled down unless I am choosing yarn or storing finished or nearly finished projects!

And that's for another day!

Kind regards
Jacqui

Creation of a dream

I should have started this two years ago! That`s when the dream of Fibre Dreams began to take shape! So after this long journey i am ready to start on the road trip of a lifetime. I shall boldly go onto the Internet with my handmade products. I have a transporter full of the extra materials and equipment i think other fibre craft people would like to have as well... I`ve got the stuff now i need to learn how to set up a website...or set up shop on big shop site (you know the bay thingeo!). I will even learn how to post photo`s of my products. Fibre Dreams.....First frustration was not understanding why the telephone number is not recognised when i tried to .com my blog site? And why you have to have a fax if you are setting up as a business?? And where do i go to get these answers.... But a successful day on the knitted blooms broaches!! So at this point in time if you have experience setting up fibre craft websites i would be grateful for any positive comments! If you have any in...

A little this and that tactics going on!!

So little time to keep up! Isn't this a beautiful brooch...straight copying from a Royal School of Needlework book on Stump work by Kate Sinton...this adorns my winter coat and I'm constantly receiving compliments. One of the reasons I am trying to teach myself Stump work is using the technique for a book I have had in my mind for years...years! So far I have several sketches of scenes within the story....I have made a start on the cover... Its finished but not complete as I have to wait for the measurements from the completed pages...I love it from its layered fabrics to the printing ink colour and the hundreds of hand stitching...and Shisha mirrors! I have my Introduction page finished too. Here's a detail image of the capital letter... So next came a Forest scene...this was my first choice to do as I 'thought' (!) it would be an easy one to start as I knew the techniques I wanted to use...here's the sketch for the page....
