Back on the Wagon

After about a month with no posting, I think it's time to get back on the wagon. I'll have more fab Etsy shops to feature in the near future, but today wanted to quickly share a few of my favorite crafting sites.
I know several of you scrapbook. Here is a wonderful blog to get layout ideas. And, if you're a digi scrapper, Happy Scrap Girl posts a list of freebies at least once a week. Worth checking out, for sure!
How about Create For Less, anyone heard of it? It's a crafting supply site that has almost anything you could ever want to craft with. They have great prices and AWESOME clearance!

I know we might not need another place to hang out on the web, but at Craftster you'll find all kinds of things to eat up your time. Every kind of forum a crafter would want to chat in is on Craftster. If I find myself at a creative dead end, chatting on these forums really helps. Plus, there are swaps, recipes, patterns...anyway. Between, Create For Less and Craftster, I find myself fully stocked for every kind of crafting.
So, check out a few of my favorite sites and then check back here in a couple days to see who my next featured Etsy seller is. Happy crafting :)

Are you paid what you're worth?

I was hanging around the Etsy forums the other day when I came across a thread about pricing your items to get paid what you and your items are worth. A fellow Etsian, Chris Parry, has a great blog post about this subject, even offering a spreadsheet to help us figure this whole thing out. After evaluating my goals and spending some time with the spreadsheet...I need to make some changes in my shop. Do you? Thanks Chris, for the helpful info!
