So I've been making these really cute cocktail and pillbox hats and I want to sell them. I've had little to no luck selling them. So Plan B. Why not sell them in stores??
I went on a mini holiday yesterday to Bainbridge Island on the other side of the Puget Sound. While in town, checking out the shops, we walked into an Indie craft store. All the sellers are local and everything is handmade. I asked how could I get my stuff in the shop. After looking at my awesome wares online, I'm in! I just need to fill out a contract and send my stuff! I can't wait. I'm gonna go back next week and drop it off. She is also gonna help me reprice my items. She says they are way too cheap!!
This all got me thinking that, maybe there are closer shops that would want my stuff! Doesn't hurt to look. So I looked, and while I didn't have the best luck, I'm gonna email 4 stores, call back and talk to the buyer of another, and have 1 more appointment. This is so exciting. I want to spend all weekend making hats and hairpieces!
I'll keep the blog updated on my progress and let you know if/when I'm in any stores.
My ramblings about life and stuff. I like to sew, craft, cook, garden, and look for ideas on Pintrest! So that's what I'll write about, hope you enjoy!
