Etsy Store

While I was pregnant with Anna

I decided to start an Etsy store

to see if I could sell anything.

I posted a picture of a growth chart ruler

I had made for Sara

and priced it fairly high

just to see what would happen.

** Fast forward six months **

I completely forgot about my Etsy store

and ruler posting when I suddenly received an email

congratulating me on my first sale.

Uh... WHAT?!

I quickly viewed the ruler posting

to see what this customer had purchased.

Then I scrambled to find the DIY website

I had used to make the ruler in the first place.

I couldn't find the original website

but I found plenty of information online

to help me make another ruler.

Luckily, I gave myself two weeks to ship

in the posting.

Matt helped me sand and stain the ruler

and I did all my tracing and wood burning.

I constructed a box with help from a box cutter

I had saved from my high school job

working in a grocery store.

(No idea why I had saved it all these years.)

 

Hopefully my first customer is satisfied!
