I’m busy threading my fancy new Pretty. Quirky. tags in preparation for traveling down to Arkansas to price all of the STUFF that I left in the storage space.
Because of course I couldn’t just use plain old white tags. I bought a Silhouette cutting machine a few weeks ago just for this project — I’m also planning on using it to make a banner for the booth, because you can use the fonts currently on your computer so it’ll be a cinch to do the logo. I read that it was a little tricky to figure out how to use it and scoffed, thinking I was plenty brainy enough to figure it out…and that’s what I get for being cocky. I was flummoxed. Luckily, I’m married to a tech genius who figured out how to first print the logo and tagline and then cut around that. Yeah, he’s going to have to show me how to do it because I think he’s had his fill of crafting at this point. The string is blue and white baker’s twine and the tags are Bluebell (my favorite color!) cardstock from Paper Source. They work out to be about three cents a piece, which I know is probably way too expensive from a business plan standpoint, but, as I told my Dad, we’re working on our BRAND here, people.
Photos to come of the revamped booth after Christmas! Yay! Can’t wait to get down there and get elbow-deep into the storeroom.
Do you sell any vintage goodies on etsy? When will your booth be up by the way? I’ll try and visit it when I go home (I’ll be in Fayetteville Dec 21st-30th).
