Hi Farmgirls,
I'm super excited to make the jump to selling something that I have made on ETSY. I decided to start with selling aprons and take it from there. My plans are to continue building my business a little at a time and see where it takes me. Will it be more than aprons? It will! I have lots of things brewing, but this is where I'm starting! Just wanted to get my brand/label out there and give it a whirl!
I was really scared to set up my shop and the potential for zero feedback or negative feedback and no sales, but I went ahead and plunged forward and set it up today. I have no idea what to expect, but I'm so glad that I took that first step of putting myself out there and being okay with the outcome (good or bad).
I just want to thank MaryJane and Meg for the encouragement through farmgirls to take those big steps and take risks and live life to the fullest. I never want to live in the shoulda, coulda, woulda mentality. There is no time like the present and here I go!
If you'd like to visit my shop, you can stop by and check it out. I only have 6 items in there so far, but hope to build it up! Thanks for stopping by!

I like the aprons. I do believe that better pictures are needed. For my part, I cannot judge how these aprons would look when worn in a full body. Maybe purchase an inexpensive dressmakers model to photograph them on.
