 What thing or things do you enjoy shopping for at Michaels/Hobby Lobby or any craft store? I like to look for new scrapbook paper and material that will create a different look for my clothing.

 Tell me about your etsy shop/online store. How, why, when did you start your business? I started several years ago by making picture frames fit friends that were having babies. I wanted to give a unique gift. A friend told me about etsy so I checked into it and set my shop up with very few frames. I attended several craft shows and did ok but very quickly realized I needed something more than just frames. I started thinking if what I wanted to do and had bought several shirts for my boys for their birthdays and always had a hard time finding exactly what I wanted. I made several shirts for them for holidays and decided to place them on etsy and it took off from their. My hope us that one day I can stay home with my kids!

   What do you love most about blogging, facebook, and/or having your own etsy shop? I enjoy looking at everyones creations and I love catching up with friends on facebook. So many I had list touch with and now can see their lives and how they are doing!
