Hi everyone! I am pretty new here, and from what I have read, it sounds like a lot of you really enjoy making your own crafts, either for gifts or to sell. I also really enjoy making things, and was wondering if anyone had any...

coach7172 One of the things that I have learned from selling on Etsy is that you have to find your "niche." It is what separates your products from everyone elses of the same type. One idea would be to look at etsy and search for the type of products that you will be...

coach7172 Etsy seems to be the most popular suggestion! Thank you! Hopefully I have as much luck as your friends selling my handmade items on there as well! I may also check craigslist!

coach7172 If I do create a web page/blog for my business, how do I go about advertising it on facebook? I have a personal facebook page, am I allowed to try to advertise on there, or is that against the rules? Would it be an actual facebook account for my business? Just...

coach7172 Hi! Thanks for the welcome! I have been seriously considering and looking at Etsy, as it seems to be fairly a unanimous suggestion from everyone. It looks great, and I am actually trying to think of a name for my shop since it cannot be changed once I create...

Right now I have a 16 month old little girl. In two months, I will be adding another little girl into our household. I am very excited to be having another baby, and am so glad that our little girls will be able to grow up...

coach7172 Ha! Thank you, that is exactly what my husband keeps telling me! I know I am probably worried for nothing, but I would definitely like to do whatever I can to make sure that the transition is an easy one for us all! Or, as easy as possible anyway.

coach7172 Just out of curiosity, when doing local craft shows, how and where do you receive information about them and selling items there? For instance, would I contact the city recreation center or something like that? I really have no idea where to start! Thanks!!

coach7172 I looked at etsy a while ago, but was skeptical about it just because I had never heard of it before. Maybe it would be worth looking into again! And you are so right! I definitely don't want my hobby to become a job at the moment! Just something for a little...

coach7172 Thank you for the ideas, I will have to check in to doing some of those things. I am new to the area as we just recently moved here, but I could definitely do some research and see if they have local craft fairs or bazaars or something. I hadn't even thought...

So Fox has announced that Ellen Degeneres will be the the new American Idol Judge! What do you think about this? I for one am so excited. Paula was nuts, and Ellen is absolutely hilarious! I think she'll made a great addition...

coach7172 If you do a search on Paula Abdul, and find a bio on her, I think that you will find that she actually did have quite a musical background in both dance and singing. Are those not some of the attributes that they are looking for in the next American Idol?...

When I was growing up as a kid my family didn't celebrate holidays and birthdays. It never bothered me. I probaly questioned it once. The other kids would have things to say because it was odd to them that we didn't celebrate the...

coach7172 I couldn't have worded this answer better myself! I completely agree with you. Holidays are celebrated to give thanks to God, to give thanks for our lives, and to remember those who have passed. There is nothing wrong with being thankful and celebrating. If...

coach7172 I don't clean the toilets every day, thats for sure. They don't need it every day, but I should do it probably once a week, and that is never the case. It usually happens every two to three weeks since I put it off as long as I can. There really isn't any...

Generally speaking, it's all right to allow your pet near your new baby, as long as the pet is well behaved and you are there to supervise. It's common for a pet, who has until recently been the focus of the family's attention,...

A bit on the controversy side but I'm just curious about the general poll. For me, I don't think abortion should be legal and I do think it is up to the woman to make that choice, though I don't personally think its right way to...

coach7172 Some 3rd trimester abortions are not elective surgeries, however, a baby is capable of surviving at around 25 weeks gestation. The third trimester doesn't start until the 28th week of gestation. So, even if it is life or death for the mother to take the baby...

coach7172 Yes, animals do have germs, but there really isn't any way that they could pass them to the little one unless you are letting them lick the baby's hands or face. I don't think animals should be that close to an infant's face in the first place. As long as you...
