etsy bound

I'm finally forced to face that fact that if I want (an excuse) to keep weaving, I should find a place to put my finished objects.  I've been looking at local retail, and there are factors that just make me really uncomfortable with it- even though in my heart it was my preferred route up 'til a few days ago.  I am a non-business person in ways I can't even reveal without making myself look so dim-witted that you would run, run away and never read my blog again.  Suffice it to say that one friend regularly refers to me as an idiot-savant (!) and another says things like "so is this like when you say something cost you about $5.00 and you meant to say $50?".  If you could be, I would be, I am, allergic to all financial transactions.  Well I'm ok at spending, not so keen on selling.

Anyway, as someone kindly pointed out on the big weaving list @yahoogroups, I have done the "heavy lifting" by getting ready for shop placement.  I can now apply that to getting an Etsy shop up.  Huh.  I am trying to get over myself and get it together.  I will keep you posted.

Absolutely cannot wait. Please hurry.

I look forward to seeing your scarves, etc. on etsy and hope that you keep weaving - love your work!

Happy Weaving,
Terri
