This is my first ever blog, so I am a little nervouse about hitting that publish button, but this is one of those things on my "bucket list". When I hit 40 (3 years ago) I promised myself that I would start doing some of those things that I had always dreamed about but been afraid of doing and failing. Well, I've learned over the years that in order to fail at something, you first have to do it. So, my first venture was earlier this year when I attended my first festival as a vendor. I was so surprised to find that people liked my items and wanted them. In fact, I almost sold out of items the first day. I am now preparing for 2 more shows this year and plan on doing at least 4-5 next year. My next item was starting this blog, and soon I will be starting on the third item on my list-selling on Etsy. I have always loved to do crafts and make things. When I taught myself to crochet 11 years ago, I had no idea that it would develop into my passion. I love making hats for my oldest daughter and my youngest daughter the "dancing" dresses I make for her. My boys like that they alway have unique hats in the winter.
Oh my, I think it is going to be one of those days! As I am trying to do this, one of the cats tried to crawl in the birds' cage, my Golden Retriever, Bentlee, is wanting to play ball and my 7 year old is asking for pizza. Maybe I will be able to get some crocheting in today.
I will post about twice a week. I would love to hear from you and hope everyone enjoys Katiekin Designs.
