I told you last week that I am planning on opening an Etsy shop! I am working like crazy to get things ready to put up and I will share what I am making along the way. Yesterday, I decided to start a little early advertising on My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia! Currently, it is just for my blog, but I am hoping the traffic will pick up and that will help my shop.
