So my etsy shop is currently closed till July 5th but I am seriously considering closing it for good. I have been receiving orders locally and a couple here and there from my website http://www.gracefulbabies.com on top of etsy orders. Alchemy has been good to me but I took on too much and my kids are suffering (my physical and mental health too....NEED SLEEP!) So I am not sure what to do. Its summer and I want to be in the pool with my kids, going to the park, playing dress up, and just hanging and enjoying their childhood. Instead I am behind a sewing machine, losing sleep and stressing about deadlines. I started online selling to have a creative outlet. I love to sew, its relaxing and fun, but I need to compensate for my fabric addiction by bringing some money in.
The last straw that made me close for a while was we were at the park....I escaped for a bit and I had given my daughter (she is three) a hug and told her I loved her and she replied "oh mommy you love your sewing".....I felt like dying! I was crushed...she is so inuitive and I just didnt realize you felt that way. So I am closing doors till the 5th and then decided what to do till then. My kids and husband are my life and I need to focus on what is truley important :)
HAPPY JULY 4TH!!
