✨ Throwback to 2014 ✨
Eeeeek. The mesh ribbon bow, the teeny tiny “Happy Fall” sign, the uneven poofs, the indoor lighting. It’s….not good. 😅
But here’s the thing—this was the start. 11 years ago, I was just figuring things out. It wasn’t perfect (far from it!), but it was the first step that eventually led to thousands of wreaths, a top 0.1% Etsy shop, and teaching other makers how to sell online. 💛
So here’s your reminder: Don’t wait until it’s perfect. Just start. Whether it’s a new craft, taking the leap to selling on Etsy, or just trying a new bow technique. You never know where it might take you.
If you want tips on how I started and what I learned along the way let me know and I’ll make a few follow up posts :) Maybe with a few more pictures of gems like this! 😂
