How did you get started?

I’ve grown up in a huge family full of crafty women and have always been surrounded by handmade goods. My mom got me a sewing machine when I was younger but I never really got into sewing until I stumbled upon Craftster.org in the Spring of 2005 and then a few months later joined Etsy.com within a couple days if its launching. It took me a year to start selling on Etsy after I joined, but that was 2 years ago and I just recently hit my 1,000 sales mark!

What inspires you?

Color and fabrics really inspire me. I just love bright, happy colors and prints.

What do you love most about Etsy?

I love how incredibly easy Etsy is to work with and how simple it is to start a business with it. Etsy has given me an outlet for the things that I love to make and I love sending my creations all over the world for people to enjoy.

What do you love to do besides making awesome things?

I love to read, play Wii, spend time with my man, and be outdoors sucking up nature. Making things fills the gaps between the rest of my life.

What is your favorite item from your shop?

At the moment I pretty much only have my Mighty Mini Pouches for sale. I make larger bags and purses as well, but when life was busy with college and job hunting, the mini pouches were quick to make and sold like crazy, so I kept at it. I enjoy making them and use them all the time to help keep my bags clutter free.

Welcome!!!

Welcome to Sassy Bows Boutique "new and improved" blog! I have decided to leave my personal blog as is, posting pictures of my little one, and keep this one focused on my business. You can still visit my other blog at http://brynnsbabble.blogspot.com

I would like to thank Michele with Elite Boutique Designs (see her creations on the left) for creating this awesome blog for me and for spending so much time (I think it was over 2 hours) chatting with me to make sure I was happy with the design! She is a computer genius (to me at least) and she can sew!!

I will be posting a new poll each week so keep a look out and be sure to vote!

Love,
Kelli
