Some Big Ol' Shop Changes

Over the past couple of years I've been on Etsy. I opened my first store in 2010 and it was a success! With that success was growth {in myself and my vision} and new inspiration so a second shop was born. Oliver's Treasure Chest. 

I opened the shop just after my second was born and was super excited about it! But I got very caught up in being a mommy and actually enjoyed blogging more than sewing for some time. Then I was a part of The Stitch Market this past December and my sewing sort of jumped back into the front seat. After the Stitch Market I was super burnt out and I stopped sewing again. See a trend here? Growth, excitement, inspiration, exhaustion, change. That has pretty much been my trend over the past two years. Well, I'm sick of it!

I am not quite sure yet what I want to 'be' when I grow up, but I do know what I would love to 'do' and that is be a blogger and run a shop. Eventually a brick & mortar shop. But if I am going to do that, I need to take myself more seriously. So, with that I am taking a very long and extended break from Etsy. It has been fun and it has been wonderful, but I feel that Etsy isn't the direction I want to be and I don't feel it to be the right tool for my success. 

Bummer, right? Well, lucky for you, I still have lots of inventory I would like to get rid of so I am offering my readers, followers, fans 30% off anything in my shop! 

Use code SEEYAHLATER at check out to receive this discount. Share it with your friends, too! As soon as inventory is gone, I will close down shop. 

This isn't goodbye, though! I'm in the works on something bigger, something better, something that will be wonderful for not only me, but you too!
