Shop Hop Saturday 3/26/11

Did you miss me Shop Hopping these past few weeks? I knew I would miss the Saturday that we moved.  I didn't intend to miss the following 2 Saturday's as well  :(


We've been in our new house 3 weeks today and it feels wonderful!  It also feels like we've lived here for years instead of just weeks.  That's the thing I love about this house.....how it felt like home before we even moved in.


I've been staying busy, which is nothing unusual.  I'm even pretty close to having everything unpacked!  Last Saturday I participated in a Monster Garage Sale hosted by out newspaper and held in a building at the Kansas State Fairgrounds.  We had a good time, even though I did spend just over the amount that I sold.


I've had some orders during this 3 weeks as well.  I sold all 3 of the plarn shopping bags I had crocheted.   This means it's time for me to get out my pattern and make some more!  I have loads of bags cut to make the plarn with.


I also sold 4 fabric bags.  Two were in my etsy store, the other 2 were special order.  I have another special order to buy material for today for 3 more fabric bags.  They are by far my most popular seller.


Anyhow....after the garage sale, I sorted books.  I couldn't re-list all of them easily so only 34 are currently listed on homeschoolbuy.  I will get more listed eventually, but after letting everything expire while I was so busy, this is a good start.  I hope you will click over and check it out.  And, if you have any homeschool or homestead items to sell, please give homeschoolbuy a chance.  It's free to list, and I am the only one who currently has anything listed!  Marsha's Homeschoolbuy Items.


I will also direct you to my etsy shop.  I have reposted all inactive items and currently have 47 items in my shop.  Marsha's Etsy Store


While I'm add it, how about checking out my zazzle store as well?  I really need to get busy and get some more items created here.  I really need to make this a goal for this week.  I have saved lots of different photos to make into products there.  Marsha's Zazzle Store

Squidoo Hopping 3/24/11

Welcome to another week of squidoo hopping!

I'm still going to work from the bottom of my lens list.

  Homeschoolbuy--  I finally got to re-listing books on this website.  I ran into trouble re-listing as they weren't all there, but I'm done for now until I add a few more books.  Then, I've spent over an hour trying to update this lens!  I didn't have the pics still on my computer, and for the life of me couldn't figure out how to save them from the auction site.  It will only let me save them as .php files, which can't be opened.  gggrrrrr.....but it's at least updated finally.  I hope you will check it out and consider selling on the website as well.  The purpose of the lens is to get the word out about it.

Next is line is my pets lens, but it also needs to be updated to take out photos of animals we no longer have, and add in at least the cat we now have.  Maybe I can get around to undating it sometime before next week.

With Violets by Elizabeth Robards--this is a book review lens.  I've not updated it, but hope you will click over and help it climb in lens rank some.

WIP Wednesday 3/23/11

WIP's----too many to list.
As far as crafts though the only thing I'm actually working on is crocheting a double thick hotpad for my friend.

I'm in the process still of attempting to unpack and organize my craft/all purpose room.  I did this video and plan on sharing one each week as I make progress.  Hopefully it will give me the motivation I need to keep working on it since I will be sharing a new video each week until the room is done.
