So this is actually the scariest bit for me, putting myself out there and letting you all know how long it takes me to sell the shipment Amazon have finally received! There are 40 kits in this batch and I’m currently prepping another 40 to go. After that I’ll be listing some new kits on Amazon and then sending a load more that’s the plan anyway - but I also don’t have an unlimited supply of money so we shall see 😬 I am like the tiniest little fish in the ocean of Amazon and know being seen on there is one of the biggest challenges! Follow along for what hopefully is not a total car crash of a challenge 💁‍♀️

A M A Y A

Such a gorgeous name sent out today in the Warm Neutrals colours scheme 🤍 I love how they came out and chuffed with my quick pic too 📸

In other news, my Amazon shipment has finally been ‘recieved’ which means I now need to get my butt in gear and take some more product pics, optimise my listings, get the next shipment sent out and sort a new Amazon ad out 😅 (send caffeine pls 🙏)

All in all, a rather productive day. It’s a neverending list of just STUFF to sort and organise. On the plus side UPS being slow is giving me more time to tweak my Amazon listings (eye twitching my way through those silver linings) it also seems like orders across other platforms have picked up as the weather has turned to well, 💩- so I’m v grateful for that 🙏 my brand new shiny website is itching to be published too, I’m so excited for this one and really need to shout out more about it but maybe on the next post 😅

A little update! Between quite a few of these handmade name block orders, sick and recovering kids and general summer holiday chaos - I’ve got the first Amazon shipment out 🙌 so much work to do but literally no time to do it, does anyone have a time turner I could borrow pls xoxox

That’s the thing with plans, they never always pan out the way you want them to 😅 but I have always got tasks to do and am currently making up lots of DIY Plant Hanger Kits with a brand new colour that I want to tentatively say, will be quite popular 🥹

Selling to Amazon ~ part 3! Still on the packaging process (it’s a lengthy one) but 50 kits are nearly ready to ship 🤞 alongside this I’ve had quite a few handmade orders this week so trying to get those done as well as wrangle 3 kids in the summer holidays and still teach, well, it’s been a little hectic but at least I am never ever bored 🤣🤣

For the first time ever I’ve decided to also pack each box in a cellophane wrapper which is far from ideal but I also don’t want boxes to be scratched by Amazon (which they have done before). I know a lot of people gift these boxes and they should be in Prime condition but Amazon also have their own rules with what packaging you can send in, so that’s been another hoop to jump through 🤦‍♀️

Part 4 coming soon!

Thanking the powers that be for a cooler day today whilst I’m stood watching my middle son play his football match 🙏🙏 I know for a fact I’ll whinge it’s cold and rainy in 3 months time but for now I’m actually sick of 30+C heat and sunshine 🥹

Whilst I’m busy packing up DIY Rainbow Kits I’ve also been busy working on more handmade orders including these name blocks in Dusky Rose and Pretty in Pinks 🩷

Episode 11 of the Small Business Diaries and I am committing 👏 it’s been on my to do list for too long and I know I seriously need to get my 🍑 in gear before Christmas starts hitting, I mean, I might be too late for it but I’m going to give it a go!

I said in my last video I’d try to stop pressuring myself into creating the ‘perfect’ videos because it’s just a ridiculous pressure that absolutely no one needs. Is the lighting great? Not really. Does my study look all pretty and tidy? Um no never lol

But I am meticulous when it comes to creating and packing my products, and I’m proud of that! So here’s a little behind the scenes packing up some more Baby Name Blocks 🩷🤍❤️
